Dear local soldiers,
Thanks for your courage to serve and your commitment to our country. I would like to thank you for your service and sacrifice. It is not easy to go away from home and fight for us, but I appreciate what you did. Not many have given as much as you did for us.
Please accept our gratitude. Best wishes during the Thanksgiving holiday. Merci/ Thanks.
Sincerely,
(signature)
Jean Carlson
