As we approach the celebration of our New Year, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to all of you for your hard work and dedication over the past year. We have much to celebrate and much to be thankful for during this festive season. To our colleagues whose jobs require you to serve the State around the clock and through the holidays, I thank you for your dedicated service. If you are reading this after a break from work, I hope your holiday memories are filled with much love and laughter and the company of family and friends.
On behalf of my family, I wish you and your loved ones a safe and happy New Year and I look forward to another year of working together in our great State of Michigan.
