Woot Woot!!! the BIG DOG is coming back! Thanks for keeping a stiff upper lip...it shows your character and true grit and it has been a shot of hope for us all...And the rest of the story goes something like this…not long ago during our Holiday Concert Series at about 1hr before the start of their 7pm show one of the performers locks all their instruments in the back of their utility truck. The ban...d director panics, it’s a new lock and they don’t have keys yet, and maintenance is closed for the day. It’s not our standard locks but a new hardened galvanized steel lock.
I radio Mike and explain the situation. He say’s “not to worry Lance, I’m working late and I’m still on campus. I’ll be right over.” As we are gathered around the truck we see Mike walking across the parking lot to the back of the building near the roll up loading doors. Walking proudly with his chest stuck out, both arms hung on his sides, carrying bolt cutters as big as he is and wearing a shirt that reads “BIG DOG.”
Well…enough said. Welcome back!

Life is good! I remember how many times I called on you for help, and there was always a timely and effective response. I could always count on your "can do" attitude. Your return is wonderful news! Even though I hope I we won't need to call on you too much. But if we do, I know that you'll be there for all of us, just like you always have been.
It's so good to have you back in our BPACE family!
Gratefully,
Linda Rodriguez
