“This is very humbling. I’m so honored to be a part of this community where everyone has a part in making it a safe and a great place to live. So, thank you to all of you for this honor and our family appreciates all of you for what you do to serve this beautiful valley we all call home,” he said.
Strange joins other Patriot of the Year recipients with a paver bearing his name at the Veterans Memorial flagpole. The ceremony included a salute to all local first responders and members of all branches of the military and their loved ones.
