Dear Editor,

I am writing this letter in hopes that you will publish it. Recently a fellow employee got hurt off the job that has made him unable to work for a period of time. You see, this employee is one of our maintenance workers, who on his breaks has helped most of us out one time or another. He has changed tires, checked out cars, jumped batteries, etc. On his lunch, if he is going to the store or anywhere, he will go around and see if anyone needs anything. For me, it was always Diet Pepsi. He has saved me more than once, and guess what? He always brought back the change.

We, his work family, wanted to take this time to thank him and let him and his family know that we are here if he needs us. Too many times, we tend to take each other for granted, as our society is too fast-paced. Jimmy Utt, however, seemed to always make time for whomever needed help. We do miss you.

P.S. I personally would like to take this time to thank my coworkers, my work family, for all the heartfelt work you do. I feel privileged to work with such a great core staff here at Genesis of New Martinsville.

Rita Chambers, LPN
