Thanks to Judy

I am writing to make it known that, in my opinion, local resident Judy Halsey is deserving of an outstanding citizen award.

In October, my husband and I were attending a conference at Big Mountain resort. One afternoon, while touring and shopping in your beautiful town, my purse accidentally fell out of our car at one of our stops.

After retracing our stops with no luck, we reported my loss to the city police. Upon our return to our housing, the police had already called to report that the purse had been turned in by Judy.

It seems that while driving by the location of one our stops, she noticed the purse lying by the curb, had the presence of mind to turn around and retrieve it, and then subsequently take it to the police station.

Thank you, thank you, Judy.
