Meet our featured staff member... |
Other than the paycheck and your alarm clock, what keeps you coming in to CECPD every morning? The wonderful staff that I get to work with. They are the best! Who do you think is the most important person alive today?
To me the most important people that are alive today are my family. Family is everything to me. I have never loved so much or felt so much love as I do with my family. Would you rather be able to fly or be invisible?
I have always wanted to be able to fly, but being invisible would be really cool. Oh, the places you could go! Ha Ha! Your favorite quote or motto:
"The love of family is life's greatest blessing" - unknown Your favorite unhealthy treat is?

Because it truly makes a difference in the lives of children.
