Jacksonville has lost a devoted public servant. Matt Schellenberg loved this city, serving the families of Mandarin and the Southside with energy and conviction over two terms on City Council.

Sending condolences to his loved ones as we mourn his passing.

What a wonderful Veterans Day Parade today! How could you not be filled with pride seeing everyone who came out, especially those who served and continue to serve. Veterans continually show us that service is commitment made to something larger than ourselves without expectation of return. That is the example before us and I believe Jacksonville can live up to it. Let us honor them today and every day by being steadier for one another. By showing up for one another. By lifting as we climb.

We are a military town because the values of service are in the DNA of our city. Today and every day, we thank and honor the brave men and women who serve our country. May God bless our veterans, their families, and our active-duty service members in harm’s way.

We mourn the loss of Raines High School Principal Vincent Hall. He was a beloved educator and Raines graduate who came full circle to lead his Alma Mater to new heights. Thinking of his family, loved ones and students today
