What A Rosy Success!
Dear Pam & Bobby,
You two really outdid yourselves on that centennial open house. It was a first-class event. I know Mother & Daddy would be so proud of you. I enjoyed meeting all your employees and putting a face with a voice. I was impressed with each & every one! Thanks so much for all your hard work & effort to make the day a success. And thanks for including me--it really meant a lot!
Judy Graves
And thank YOU--our customers--for making our Kick-off Centennial Open House a huge success! We loved getting to reminisce with familiar faces and welcome new ones. Since we will be celebrating all year long, make sure you check back for events throughout the year. And congratulations to all our winners!!
Year-Long Events include:
* Starting in January, come by once a month and put your name in a drawing for a seasonal rose bouquet. Your name must be in by the 9th of each month.
