The CK Daily – 20 Days of Giving: Day 11
Good morning and happy Friday! Who’s ready for the weekend? I’m Mandy and I’ve been a part of the CablesAndKits team for 12 years.
With the Season of giving nearing, I wanted to provide my company-sponsored donation to a local family of a deputy who was shot and killed in November. Deputy Nicole Marshall was shot on 11/5 at a residence after receiving a phone call about a domestic dispute. Three days later she ultimately lost her life in sacrifice of serving her community. Nicole was a mother and friend to many in the community and to see the support around her was truly unbelievable. Deputy Marshall’s body was brought to a local church in a horse-drawn carriage through a 16-mile procession throughout the county in her honor. Residents and other regional law enforcement agencies lined the streets to honor her life and to give her a proper sendoff. My heart goes out to her family so I just want to show support for her and others that put their life on the line, every day for us. A benefit has been set up at the Northeast Georgia Bank, 1775 Old Pendergrass Road, Jefferson, Georgia. Donations can be made at any Northeast Georgia Bank.
