Henry and Jeff at the environmental office have extended themselves beyond their duties as health department employees. These men are the finest example of public servants I have ever worked with. My wife and I are relieved to know that we have dedicated heath dept. Employees on our side. These folks have made our recent move to Grayson KY beautiful knowing we have someone to turn to when confronted by issues of health and safety. Thank you guys for your service to Carter County
