Howdy folks anyone else have an SR in Ship 02 Div 931. Would love to here what ever you would like to share. I came home from work at 6pm found the form letter in my mail box. I didn't even read it except to get the address, addressed the mound of letters and then flew to the downtown post office to get them in the inside box before the last pick up at 6:30!
WHEW!

Our daughter is also in this division. I actually received a phone call last week but it was strictly business. She needed some information faxed to them. She was very professional! I didn't know for sure if I was talking to her or someone else at first. She had someone standing right by her so when I tried to sneak in an "I love you and miss you" they told her that she needed to get off the phone :( At least I got to hear her voice.
I have not received a letter other than the form letter either.... anxiously awaiting still.
I haven't gotten a letter yet either. Hoping to get one soon.
Did anyone in our group get an actual letter yet?
Some in division 177 got calls today! Keep your phones close!!!
I got a letter yesterday. My SR said that sunday 5/6 was tDIV 931's first opportunity to write.
We got a call today also and a letter the other day. He sounded great!
Finally got my call this afternoon. Sounds like a lot has been going on. Don't think they get much free time. He sounded proud and wanted to make sure I send more letters. He even missed his little sister! Best mother's day present I ever got was hearing his voice.
