I made an appointment to meet Ms. Garza Perez, when I arrived at her office, I gave my name, and the receptionist said "she is expecting you." "Right this way." At her door the receptionist checked that Ms. Garza Perez was free, and we were ushered right in. I shared my reason for seeking the audience, Ms.Garza immediately began addressing the fact brought to her attention. Thank you Ms. Garza/Perez. The people of Cameron selected a capable and committed public servant which you are.
