                          Only a few days back from a tour I received a huge THANKS Card (18w X 24h inch)

                                                   from Power Elementary School, Beloit WI

 

                I open the card (36 w X 24 h inch) it was the young students signatures 262 students in total from five classes. My heart was thrilling and my eyes were wet… I image how were the hundrends students signed on this one paper? and how much time were they spend for signing their names for me? One by one, and one class by another… I am very honored and grateful.
