Easthampton Supervisor and Westfield resident Mark Coppez was recently honored with the National Guard’s Patriotic Employer Award.
About the Patriot Award: An employee serving in the National Guard or Reserve, or the spouse of a Guard or Reserve member, may nominate individual supervisors and bosses for support provided directly to the nominating Service member and his or her family. The Patriot Award reflects the efforts made to support citizen warriors through a wide-range of measures including flexible schedules, time off prior to and after deployment, caring for families, and granting leaves of absence if needed.
Patriot Awards are awarded to individual supervisors, not to an entire staff or organization as a whole. Each nominee receives a Patriot Award certificate and accompanying lapel pin.
The Postal Service receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products and services to fund its operations.
