GreenCare Volunteer Honored by Military
Bob Walker at Dependable Lawn Care is a GreenCare for Troops Volunteer who was recently honored by a military family he has been serving. His email and story is below:
These attachments are pictures of a gift I received from a sergeant who just returned from Afghanistan. It was given to me because we belong to GreenCare for Troops.
It is an organization that asks green companies such as landscapers and lawn care operators to provide service at no charge for the families of deployed solders.
I must say that I was floored when he walked through my door today. Sergeant Devlin and his wife Nancy presented this to me and let us know how much they appreciated what we did for them. That it was one thing they didn't have to worry about while he was away.
This is to certify that the accompanying American flag was flown in the face of the enemy over the American Compound, Camp Phoenix, Afghanistan, during Operation Enduring Freedom on this 4th day of July, 2009 in honor of Dependable Lawn Care Blue Island, Il. Thank you for all of your support.
