It is Independence Day!

I want to wish every citizen of this great country and particularly the people of Jasper a thankful and thoughtful Independence Day.

      Have a very celebratory and happy 4th. of July!!  God Bless America

I salute the founders our great country and all those who have fought to preserve our honor, liberty, and freedom.  Most importantly on this day I want to salute and acknowledge my gratefulness to all those who have served since we won our Independence.  You went to preserve what, we as Americans, hold so dear.  Many of you served, many of you were severely injured and wounded, and many made the ultimate sacrifice.  You fought and died for our country's freedom.  I cannot thank enough, the men and women who have kept us safe and continue to keep us safe today.
