Friends of DJ,
I had the opportunity to speak publicly twice last week, first to my fellow DJ teammates at our Christmas party, and then two days later at the funeral of long-time DJ employee, Dana Kauffman. At the end of that day, I attended the ribbon cutting for Big Brother Big Sisters' new location. Combined, these three occasions reminded me again of just how blessed I truly am.

I am surrounded by a great group of people, and I have been for my entire career. I've said it many times, and I truly believe that the talent and dedication in the room with me on Monday night cannot be matched by any other builder in our area. Our current team is working in a culture of honesty, commitment, and integrity laid on the foundation before them by a core of individuals like Dana Kauffman, Howard Hochstetler, Roy Bates, Fred Blosser and Don Schrock. If you knew any of those men, then you probably understand what I mean.
We have been blessed with very low turnover through the years, and every ounce of talent, experience, and energy that we have was needed to put the work in place that came our way this year. 2015 included old and new relationships, and projects ranged from the smallest by the Service Group to the two largest buildings in our 61-yr portfolio. I am proud of the projects we built and thankful that we've now gone through our two biggest years ever without a single lost-time accident!
If you weren't already aware, you'll read in this newsletter about the upcoming planned transition of our company president. And, you'll continue to get a glimpse of our heart toward the many local organizations, like Big Brothers Big Sisters, who are putting a dent in the fatherless epidemic. I am truly excited about the future of DJ Construction, and I look forward to the opportunities we will have to strengthen our partners and our community. As we all count our many blessings this Christmas season, let's remember whose blessed us, and let's be mindful of how we can use what we've been given to bless those around us.
Merry Christmas,
Bob Schrock
