Soldier Care Packages- Reply

Today, I received a letter in the mail from Specialist Andres Montero.  This is the gentlemen we sent a care package to before Christmas.  This is what he has to say:

"You don't know how much your package meant! I will use every last item and so will my roommates.  I appreciate everything you do as a whole and in particular the package you sent."

"This is my 1st deployment and its amazing to me how folks like yourself and your family support us.  I never imagined it would be like this."  "...to take time to do something like this for a complete stranger speaks to your dedication and commitment to us.  Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and I wish you the best.  Thanks from the bottom of my heart!!!"

I thought this was incredible he was able and willing to send us a response.  I thought I would share his letter so everyone who donated would be able to see, even if it is small, we are making a difference in someone's deployment and hopefully making their day.

WOW! Brings tears to my eyes. I am so thankful I have a caring daughter and I'm thankful I helped in a small way. That is really nice to hear from him and know you make a difference to someone so far away.
