Way to Go Jon!

Jon did it! After 17 weeks in the Arapahoe Law Enforcement Academy, Jon graduated last night. He didn't just graduate. . . He graduated 2nd in his class! As Bob DePratu used to say, we are "bustin' our buttons" with pride. I wish that I had captured the moment when they announced his name for Academic Achievement and Overall Achievement for his class. The look on his face was priceless. It was a very emotional moment. We are so proud of you Jon!

Jon,
....oh my goodness, you did so very well! We are very proud of you, and your family, for all you have gone through in the past 6 months to make this day a reality. God is so good.

You look very handsome in your suit....and the red power tie... Nice choice!
