Commissioners Fisher, Ryan and Chandler Henry:
I understand that I need to correspond with you concerning my willingness to continue
serving on the Eagle Cemetery Board. The board has approached me about my interest
and I am most interested in serving in this capacity. My term is up this fall and I would
appreciate your consideration of approving me to serve in this way.. .
Although Eby Creek Mesa,where I live,is not officially in the town of Eagle, I feel
attached to the town and it's citizens through business,community service and social
activities.
Through my work with the Veterans of Foreign Wars and being Eagle County Veteran
Service Officer,I have facilitated,performed and attended many veterans burials at the
Eagle Cemetery and have coordinated flag placement on Memorial Day and Veterans
Day for a number of years. I am also working with 2 historians and a boyscout troop to
document veteran grave sites and properly mark them in all the cemeteries in Eagle
County.
I hope you will understand my interest in forever honoring those who have served our
country and in keeping alive the memories of those who have gone before us. I would be
honored if you would appoint me to continue serving on this meaningful board.
Sincerely yours,
Patricia J. Hammon j_._ f` -
