“As we celebrate the day you first stepped into this world, we see you like a mighty tree that once stood tall in our town square.Providing shade, strength, and roots that held our community together.
Though the branches may rest for now, we wait like rain for the sun, knowing your roots run deep in our land and our hearts.
We pray that like a river finding its way back to the sea, you’ll return to weave your gift of public service into our town’s story once more. Happy Birthday, Mayor Ben!
May this new year bring you health, and may your light find its way back to guide us all.
We watch the horizon and pray for its return, knowing your heart for public service is like a flame that never truly fades.May we soon see you back where you belong,serving the people you love so deeply.” D.P
Happiest Birthday, Mayor Ben!
