Dear Dave,
Thank you for the assistance you and your team provided to the family of Katelyn Markham and to the community of Franklin County, Indiana.
Your assistance with search efforts was invaluable. I was impressed with your desire to ensure good communication amongst various groups inc1uding Texas EquuSearch, the Franklin County Coroner’s Office, and Indiana State Police, as well as Ms. Markham’s family. I am grateful for the care and effort you put into assuring that things were done according to agency needs and protocol while also meeting the needs of the family. Your desire to learn new things to enhance your team’s future work was commendable and serves as an indication of the level of professionalism you possess. The sincerity and compassion shown for Katelyn and her family coupled with the passion, commitment, and effort put into the search itself was truly touching.
It was my pleasure to get to know and work with you and each member of the search team. As the Coroner in a small, rural town, and having limited man power and resources, it is reassuring to know that Texas EquuaSearch is available and ready to assist when we need help. On a more personal note, having spoken with you on various occasions since has allowed us to establish a mutual respect for one another’s various roles and areas of expertise and experience. This is a benefit to both of our agencies, our communities, and most importantly the missing and their families.
Sincerely,
Wanda M. Lee, Coroner
