Bus drivers superior during rough time
I wanted to write to commend the bus drivers at MCAT. They got me through a very rough time for me in the last year and a half, when I had no wheels. That was the longest stretch of my life without a vehicle of my own.
I want to greatly thank Fritz and Howard on No. 2; Mark, Tom and Vicki on No. 3; Chris on No. 4; C. Joseph, Linda, Max, Don, and Steve on No. 6; David and Greg on No. 8; Rosa and Audrey on No. 16; Emilio, Patricia, Barb, Robert (who always wore a hat) and Stephen on the 399; and Rhonda on the No. 203 but to the VA hospital in St. Pete.
Also, I wanted to thank SCAT drivers on No. 99. They were Alex, Dave, Scott, Jeff and a very nice African-American lady who picked me up many times early in the morning whose name I can’t remember.
All of these people were absolutely first-class individuals and treated me like gold.
I’ve made a huge recovery in my life thanks to all these people and also Derek Heard and his staff at Turning Points help center.
God bless all of you.
