A Word of Encouragement from the Office of the Governor, Regional Director Budd Berro:


“May 6, 2009


Dear Laura:


Thanks once again for the opportunity to attend your fascinating program yesterday, and for the chance to meet a number of the participants. I can say with a high degree of confidence that when we met through the auspices of the Mayor of Waxhaw last month, your commitment, dedication, and enthusiasm for your work and profession provided me with much motivation and interest in attending the forensic meetings yesterday at Richmond Community College. The ideas, skills and technologies that you, Michael, and your colleagues discussed yesterday clearly help represent the future of law enforcement, and I encourage and support your efforts going forward.


Thanks once again for everything that you do, and I look forward to working with you in the future and seeing you in the County before too long.


Best regards,


Budd Berro”
