As you all can testify to I am always late with everything, and I might be a wee bit late with this thank you, but my gratitude is profound.
To everyone at Refugees and Immigrant Community Services,there are no words to describe the enormity of the work you do everyday. I am so humbled by your dedication and compassion, your drive to contribute to the betterment of society and the world. It is admirable, it is awe inspiring, it is praise worthy.
Thank you for being great co-workers and great friends. For putting up with my glaring shiny red shoes, my lame jokes, and mildly disturbing personality.
To the families I had the honor of working with, thank you for accepting me, and welcoming me into your lives. Each and every one of you has enriched my life more than you can ever imagine. I will forever be grateful.
Under the fierce Yemeni sun, I raise my glass of syrupy sweet tea to you all! Thank you!
