Billy Pettey 08/16/08

I would like to take the opportunity to express my gratitude and my deepest thanks to such a wonderful group. On August 16th, we had a retirement party for Billy with his family and friends in attendance. When the sirens started and the rumble could be heard, his thought was you were bring a soldier home. But when he was told that you were coming to honor him, you could see the emotion run over him.

His family and friend have always thought so highly of him but for someone else, such as the Brazoria County Cavalry, to have honored him in that special way was simply amazing. His family though it was truly amazing as well and it could not have been more touching or perfect. Billy is the type of person who would not expect such a presentation but who would appreciate the gravity of the presentation as you have given him. I can not thank the fine men and women who took of their own time to come honor my husband enough.

You will always hold a special place in my heart for not only what you did for my husband and family but also what you do for our community and soldiers. Keep up the great work and may God ride with you and bless you.

Thank you ever so much.
Tina Pettey
