(NorthFulton.com<\/a>) \u2013\u00a0\u00a0Roswell 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.<\/p>\n

For the third year, they teamed up to offer all of Roswell\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve always been passionate about the job our first responders do. And I thought they had been getting a bad rap in the national media,\u201d Michael said. \u201cBob [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.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey 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.\u201d<\/p>\n

It really hit home to Michael when two Roswell teenager were murdered two years ago.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI have two girls in Blessed Trinity and one at Queen of Angels,\u201d Michael said. \u201cAnd I had a couple of nervous nights until they caught the guy. I knew then we should do something.\u201d<\/p>\n
