SAWNEE EMC SUPPORTS MILITARY EMPLOYEES

 

CUMMING, GA (April 16, 2003) — Sawnee EMC is proud of the professional staff that it employs. Two of those employees are now considered heroes. John Taylor and Steve Jones have been deployed overseas and are now serving their country in the war against terrorism. To show support, Sawnee EMC employees have sent care packages on a regular basis; and recently, they voluntarily “cashed in” a portion of their personal leave time in order to give financial support to the families of John and Steve. This generous endeavor raised $3459.18 for these two heroes.

Sergeant First Class John Taylor of the U S Army Reserves is a line technician for Sawnee EMC and has been with the cooperative since 1986. His expertise makes him an asset to the corporation. John is a native of Cumming, GA.

            Senior Airman (E-5) Steve Jones of the U S Air Force Special Force Reserve is a computer operator in the Information Services Department. Steve has been with Sawnee since 1988 and is a very proficient member of the staff. Steve also calls Cumming, GA his home.
