@TheMediaShower @Lowes Very nice. Thank you for sharing, John!

[John R Dallas Jr @JohnRDallasJr]

#Gratitude opens and closes communication loops. Acts of #appreciation energize and calm minds. Hearts warm when thanks is given and received. @EGVBusinessPark FD officer David Hoppe crafted for @enclave_center this “thank you,” now hanging in The 1776 Boardroom. Grateful we are!

The Elk Grove Village (IL) Fire Department hosted a CPSE Quality Improvement for the Fire and Emergency Services Workshop with 19 fire service professionals. Thank you for the opportunity!

#FireChief @EGFD200 returned to the stage at @enclave_center, following an informative introduction by @egvtrustee. @EGTV6's broadcast and online recording of the monthly masterclass (No. 50) at @enclave_center in @EGVBusinessPark extend the local-to-global value of the messages.

Engaged #BusinessLeaders step up to express views about ways to improve circumstances for the communities they serve. @EGFD200 and other #PublicSafety pros welcome input and #ideas from on-site observers of #workplace risks — and ways to make things safer! https://t.co/fOTjl0PLXd

On 10.7.21, @POTUS will speak in @EGVBusinessPark, the largest #BusinessPark in the #US, which is among the world's most sophisticated #wirespeed #tech hubs for #DataCenters. It's an ideal stage from which to emphasize the globe's vital interconnectedness. https://t.co/ztRdxPnc0h

During this morning’s heart-rending and mind-wrenching #911NeverForget tribute, led by @EGFD200 with @EGVPD, #compassion was in the air as we glanced skyward at low-flying aircraft for nearby @fly2ohare. The strongest among us allowed tears to mix with our #memories and #hopes.

Each time we have repainted the fire hydrant in front of @enclave_center, or when the building’s #FireSafety equipment is tested, I remind participants in our programs to heed and honor #PublicSafety professionals in their communities. Their valiant efforts deserve recognition!

[John R Dallas Jr @JohnRDallasJr]

With appreciation to friend and colleague @EGVBusinessPark Fire Chief @EGFD200 for adding to @enclave_center’s #ChristmasTree a special ornament’s tribute to @FireHeroFamily’s National Fallen #Firefighters Foundation® — a non-profit created by #USCongress. https://t.co/A8SnT3AImY

Trust is on shaky ground. From trust among us to trust in authority, neighbors and nations are quaking. The global #COVID19 pandemic, social unrest, political uncertainty, and socioeconomic precarity bring #trust top of mind. Try giving—and receiving—win-win-plus gifts of trust!

[Richard Mikel @EGFD200]

@JimmyHarris_ Congratulations to all. Best wishes for safe operations.

[Richard Mikel @EGFD200]

@chieflasky Our condolences, Rick.
