Susie Gray Quotations

We have been assigned three soldiers so far. We basically show them where the (supermarkets) are, which are the main streets in the city, how to get one off and on Fort Bliss and the best places to eat. One of our soldiers needed to get a TV, so we took him to different appliance stores until he found one.

I shop here whenever I can. Anytime you can save a little gas, it's good. It's really neat that we are getting stores out here because we need to spend money in our area.

It's like having our kids home. Our first soldier mentioned that it was really neat to have someone in an unfamiliar place that he could call whenever he needed something. It's kind of like being a second parent and friend. There is no obligation on their part. They can take or leave us.

I noticed that it is getting a lot better in Northeast. We need more (stores), so I hope they keep sending them to our part of town. We will support them.
