    I would like to thank Shepard Cove for taking me in 1996 of January 3rd. I have volunteered for the Homeless Resource in Glen Burnie Maryland for six years and I now reside in Texas beginning this year. I'm almost finished with my GED diploma, passed three subjects, have one more to go (math (. Thanks again).
