Letter: Nate Ulrey has been an asset to the village

Icon:

I want to commend a young man who has worked for the Village for a couple of years. Nate Ulrey has been an asset to the Village and has helped many citizens. He is an extremely hard worker and gave a 100% to all projects he undertook.

The Village is a better place because of him. He has taught the service employees about trees and was instrumental in removing the ash trees before the emerald borer destroyed them and they fell. I was honored to work with him. He has taken a leave of absence from the Village and he will be missed.
