Letters to front-line workers

Thank you front line workers for doing your job in scary times. You were at work during the Covid-19 pandemic. If you weren’t working at the grocery store, we would die. You did your job even though life was crazy. You are awesome.

Thank you,

Dear Truck Driver,
I am writing to thank you for your efforts in trucking things around the country. Without you we would not have any food or anything else we needed. Thank you for continuing to drive through the COVID-19 pandemic. We all like that we have people like you because I know I would not want the job and I am thankful that you do it.

Sincerely,
Josh Scheffee

Dear Front Line Worker,
How are you doing today and thank you for all you have done for everyone. Thank you for working in scary times like these times and giving us food and helping with Covid-19, and helping those who have Covid-19.
Do you ever get scared to go to work? Or don’t want to go to work?

Sincerely,
Sarah

Dear Front Line Worker,
I would like to thank you for what you’ve done through the COVID-19 pandemic. Thank you for risking your life going into your place of work when everything was going a little crazy. You showed us hope and a possibility that everything would be OK! You went to work even though you had a family at home and we really didn’t know what was going on. We were told all kinds of crazy things and didn’t know what to believe, but you still went to work.
So, THANK YOU again for going to work.

Sincerely,
Colton Foley

Hello Doctor,
Thank you for keeping the hospitals open in these trying times. You have been working non-stop since March and you deserve a thank you. You should be proud of yourself, keeping society going when it is most important. You and your co-workers have done exactly that.

Dear Grocery Store Worker,
Thank you for taking your time to work and give our community groceries and gas. You have helped my family through the pandemic by giving food and water and cleaning products. Our community truly appreciates your help. We thank you for giving us food and water to have during the pandemic.

Dear Front Line Workers,
Thank you front line workers for helping our community at these difficult times. You guys help a lot by bringing food to our local grocery store, by helping your sick patients at the hospital, and cooking at our restaurants. You do a lot for our town. Thank you for all of your hard work!

Dear Front Line Workers,
I’m writing to you today to thank you for everything you’ve done during the pandemic. I just want you to know everything you do doesn’t go unnoticed. A lot, and I mean a lot of people notice the things you do and the things you do to help. I just want all the firefighters, police and everybody else who’s been helping to thank you so much for what you’ve done. It means a lot in this country and we assure you your work isn’t going unnoticed. I also thank all the doctors and nurses because they’ve done so much for help stopping Covid-19.

Sincerely,
Chase Winder

Dear Mr. or Mrs. Front Line Worker,
Your hard and dangerous job has not gone unnoticed.
We here at JDH thank you for your bravery in this time of trouble. Thank you for still working for us in this horrible pandemic. Without people like you we would be homebound in quarantine since March and it is so much better now so thank you so much for your hard work

Sincerely,
