(NorthFulton.com) – Roswell firefighters and police officers received a big thank-you for their service from Michael and Roxie Hernandez with the Hernandez Group of Keller Williams Realty and Bob and Marlene White of Slopes BBQ.
For the third year, they teamed up to offer all of Roswell’s first responders a free meal the entire week of 9-11 to give each a personal vote of thanks for the jobs they do 24-7.
“I’ve always been passionate about the job our first responders do. And I thought they had been getting a bad rap in the national media,” Michael said. “Bob [White] and I joined Roswell Rotary the same year, so who better to team up with my idea of buying each one meal this week.
“They help Rotary so much with our Honor Flights and do so much people never hear about. It would be a way to thank each one personally.”
It really hit home to Michael when two Roswell teenager were murdered two years ago.
“I have two girls in Blessed Trinity and one at Queen of Angels,” Michael said. “And I had a couple of nervous nights until they caught the guy. I knew then we should do something.”
