“Regardless of the outcome of the recent election, I am still proud to be an American! It struck me how thankful we should be for our right to select our government as I responded to an email from the mayor of our friendship city–Taicang, China. Here in our country, we had all just gone to the polls. I wrote her that half of the country is happy, and the other half is unhappy, but that we will all pull together. I thought to myself, in China all they can do is watch as their governing unelected committee parades into the hall to take their unelected offices.”
Eva Galambos, Sandy Springs mayor
“I’m thankful for my family. My wife, four daughters, two sons-in-law, and two grandchildren.”
Mike Davis, Dunwoody mayor

“I am thankful for my beautiful wife of 32 years and my two children.
