Letter to the editor: Thank you

This is an open letter to the law enforcement officers of The Dalles and Oregon State Police Troopers: It is with a sincere and grateful heart that I say thank you for your perseverance, courage and dedication to your responsibilities and to our community of families, children, schools and individual community members.

Your job must be filled with rewards as well as great concerns. It probably is not easy at times heading out to work at all different hours.

Thank you for your willingness to do all you can to provide safety and protection for all of us.

Sharon Stewart
