I want to thank you for continuing to nominate me for this esteemed honor. However, at this time I must respectfully decline. My life has gotten completely crazy the last couple of moths. Everything from taking an assistant coach position with an indoor football team in Salt Lake City(!), to taking care of my parents, both of which are in the midst of surgery and recovery procedures. You folks deserve a Representative that is much better able to devote the time that this region (and you) deserve, and I cannot provide that at this time. I will continue to pop in and out of the region boards and the main site itself, but I just can't get here enough to fulfill the duties of the office at this time. I, as always, want the absolute best for this region. At the present time, that is not me. Thank you, and Long Live The Great Region of Texas. |
