APPLAUSE AWARDS

Kito DeBrito and Roosevelt Boyd,
Police and Parking Services

We would like to commend Roosevelt Boyd and Kito DeBrito for their relentless hard work in the cold rain, and a job well done. Last Thursday after work, my friend's BMW, parked in the reserved lot by Schulz, shorted out apparently due to moisture and the result was her key wouldn't work. The locks wouldn't pop up. She didn't have road service, she lives in Calistoga, and she had horses and other animals to feed.

After countless attempts in the pouring rain, these two young men finally succeeded in getting into her car. Then we realized the battery was dead, so there was more work to do.

They kept their spirits up the whole time, were courteous, friendly, cheerful and, of course, enormously helpful. My friend, Kerry Gilbert and I, both work at SSU, and, believe me, it is nice to know that someone is looking out for our welfare. Job well done! - Sandra Bannister and Roseann Richard
