Letter: DPW crew deserves credit for quick response

To the editor:

I would like to commend the quick response of two of our city's Department of Public Works crew.

On my morning walk the other day, I met them at Stage Fort Park and asked if they could possibly repair two broken swings at the Fort Square playground. They not only responded to my request in a respectful manner, they actually followed through with their promise.

I know it's easy to be critical and judgmental of our city employees, but I would like to give a major shout out to Richard Pino and Leo Amero.

You are a credit to your profession — and a source of our civic pride.

Thank you from a grateful grandmother.
