The following is from a letter sent to me by Mike Siems, Vice President of North Star Lodge #22. He asked that I put it on my blog. Thanks, Mike - all of you at Lodge #22 are great brothers and sisters.
Dear Chuck: I just want to thank for all the hard work you have done over the past year. You have brought about a real change within the law enforcement community in northern Minnesota by helping us form Lodge #22 of the FOP.
Your dedication to the organization and the amount of hours that you expended to make us succeed is a credit to yourself and to the department that you work for as well as the office that you hold. On a personal note I wish to thank you for the help that you have given our president who found himself being attacked by his employer because he had taken the other side of the issue. And how you have repeatedly driven for 7 hours straight, attended meetings, met with our FOP board and then driven back to the twin cities for work the following day, only to say that it is your job. I can only say that you bring the true meaning of what it means to be a brother in the FOP, for I know of very few organizations that would go to help a person out such as you have done. It is with great pride and humility that I am able to call you brother and to know that where ever I might be I can always count on you in the time of need.
Mike Siems
Vice President, Lodge #22
