9.11.2015 ... Thank you cards from James Madison High students.

Thank you, Coach Cunningham, for these wonderful and thoughtful words your students have written to me. These are very much appreciated. It's great to know that the youth are aware and remember the loss we suffered that day.

It's great to know that they are aware of what my fellow brothers and sisters in arms have done for our country in the past and present.

Thank you!
