Happy Thanksgiving

Rick Ropelewski |

Best wishes for a happy Thanksgiving! It's the perfect time of year to send our sincere thanks for the opportunity to work with you.

We would like to share a few things we are thankful for...

Rick My wife Martha comes from a large family (she has six siblings), and there are always many opinions on how to carve the turkey, slice the pie, etc.   However, I’ve always enjoyed the “chaos” and I’m very thankful to be part of such a wonderful family.  And now with our kids only home for the holidays it makes the time with them even more special, and I have a better appreciation for this time of year.

Tom I like to joke that Thanksgiving is about the three F’s: family, food, and football.  I do enjoy stuffing myself before watching the Lions lose (nothing against Detroit, but it’s practically a tradition now).  But the only F to be truly thankful for is family.  This year I’m thankful for another year spent watching my daughter grow, develop her own personality, and increasingly explore her world.  And for my wife, who is wonderfully patient, encouraging, and devoted in caring for our busy toddler.

Nora I am grateful to spend the holiday surrounded by my family. It’s always a joyful holiday, but even more so now that Saoirse provides the entertainment!

Karen  I am thankful for my wonderful family, and my favorite thing about Thanksgiving is that they will all be at my house eating, drinking and laughing.
