Thank You from Iraq!

Dear wonderful students, families and faculty of the Skyview school,

My name is Staff Sergeant Adam Grimm, a soldier serving our nation here in Iraq.  My parents live just across the street from your school in Oakdale!

Thank you for the generosity and compassion you showed in donating over 15 big boxes of clothing, school supplies and toys to some really great kids over here, many are the same age as some of you.

If you want to see it on a map, the orphanage is located in a city named Balad  (just north of Baghdad, Iraq).  The smiles of love and appreciation on the kids’ faces pretty much say it all: “thank you to the Skyview school family, for giving love and hope to kids over here in Iraq”.

(To map this location click on: http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&tab=wl and type in Balad, Iraq and you will see their town just north of the Hwy)

With much appreciation for you,
Adam J. Grimm
