Donelson Neighborhood News – June 2019

I had the extraordinary honor and privilege recently to present a proclamation to Joe Davis, World War II veteran, serving in the US Army where he earned a Purple Heart and Bronze Star. Joe celebrated his 100th birthday on Memorial Day.  I so enjoyed our visit as he told me about being part of the invasion of Sicily on July 10, 1943.  After the war, Joe enjoyed a long career at the US Postal Service.  An amazing man and hero.

I’m very aware and staying on top of construction related issues with folks living behind Donelson Plaza off of Benson Road.  Don’t hesitate to call my cell – 615-886-9906, and I will stay on top of this and work to ensure there is safe passage for trash trucks, delivery and neighbors just trying to get back and forth to their homes.  Thanks for your patience.  It’s a big project and it’ll be great when finished, but I know it’s a big pain to deal with right now.
