I read an interesting article about Judge Andrew Hanen. We both moved here to the Valley from Houston in 2002. I had one of my first cases in his court. I was glad that I had gone to meet him before. He was a very prominent lawyer in Houston before becoming a judge.
Today I read that he is transferring back to Houston. "People forget I've been in Brownsville for 16 years" he said. But that is not a long time to people who parents, grandparents and more all still are here.
So while I wish him well, I'm glad to say that there is still work for me to do here. I just wrote a letter of recommendation for a person to join the LVN to RN program. I just encouraged a young friend that his goal of having his own restaurant was closer than he thought. We've got a medical school to bring up. We've got 25,000 students in McAllen ISD that need to learn in a safe environment. We've got veterans who need driven to the cardiologist.
As I say, This Is Home Now.
