As we gather with friends and family to celebrate Thanksgiving, I am filled with gratitude and warmth for the incredible community we call home. In this season of reflection, it is my honor to extend my deepest thanks to each and every one of you who make Fort Lauderdale the vibrant and diverse city that it is.

The acts of kindness, compassion and resilience that I witness daily within our community are an inspiration. Whether it’s neighbors helping neighbors, volunteers dedicating their time to worthy causes, or businesses supporting those in need, Fort Lauderdale is a city that cares.

May we all be filled with joy, gratitude and the company of loved ones this holiday season. There is a strength that lies within the City of Fort Lauderdale, and it offers a boundless potential when we come together.

Happy Thanksgiving, Fort Lauderdale!

Sincerely,

Dean
