Dear Gary,

A heartfelt thank you to the May Day Committee for honoring us as the Grand Marshals of the parade and to the Oroville community for your warm and loving support, greetings and cheers throughout the festivities.

We were honored to be selected and deeply touched by the many ways the community included us.

At the end of the day we asked our Granddaughters who were visiting from Spokane what they will remember the most about Oroville’s May Day. Maddie,13-years-old, said she would remember “The way everyone in the community cares for each other and supports each other.” You can take a bow, you are a wonderful community indeed.  You have madeOroville May Festival 2013 a cherished memory for us and our family.

We will always be proud to call Oroville home.

With joy filled hearts and deepest gratitude,

Marilyn and Jim Prince

Oroville
