February 19, 2009: Today, Raymond received the "Spirit of Peace" award at Pleasant Grove High School. We've been celebrating Freedom Week and the student body chooses Pleasant Grove citizens to honor as part of their assembly. They choose people who use their lives to serve their community. Raymond received his award with Senator Orrin Hatch! Needless to say, this was a very proud moment for me. Who would've thought he would share a stage and receive the same award as Senator Hatch? So, although the hours are lousy and Raymond has to put up with the "scum" of the earth, I am proud that he is a police officer. It is a very noble and selfless job, and I think he does a pretty good darn job at it.
