We spent last week soliciting notes of thanks from Kansans to this state's veterans in honor of Veterans Day. Yesterday we delivered these notes to VFW, VA and other Veterans Organizations across the state. Here are couple of the more than 300 notes we received:

Ed Outlaw: Your sacrifice of your safety and well being; separation from your family, monetary sacrifices cannot be repaid in dollars. As the Chairperson of the Democratic Veterans' Caucus (Kansas Democratic Veterans' Association), I join with all of the members of our caucus in expressing our deep gratitude for your service to the country, regardless of your party affiliation. Let us keep the flag flying for those still in harm's way.

Ruth Clark Elementary - Mrs. Black's Third Grade Class: We would like to thank you for serving our country. One reason we would like to thank you is for being brave and protecting our country from enemies. Without people like you who join the military, our country would not be a safe and free place to live. We think you are brave and a hero. Sincerely, Mrs. Black's Class - Darrin, Trever, Alan, Ricky, Madison, Dakota, Jared, Shilo, Aubrey,Brady, Destiny, Douglas, Tyler, Mimosa, Sierra, Josh, Raegen, Bryan, Cody, and Mrs. Black.

Thanks to all of you who wrote notes, and most importantly Thank You Veterans.
