Roofs for Heroes’ Recipients Jim and Jackie Sleter

Dave Daily and their VFW Post 12055 nominated Jim Sleter for Florida Southern Roofing’s Roofs for Heroes program.

Out of all of the nominees, Florida Southern Roofing chose Jim Sleter as their 3rd Roofs for Heroes recipient. “On behalf of Florida Southern Roofing, I want to say CONGRATULATION’s as you, Jim and Jackie Sleter have been selected to be our 2021 Florida Southern Roofing Roofs For Heroes recipients!!!!” Brian Wallace, President of Florida Southern Roofing, started the “Roofs For Heroes” program a few years ago, however it has been a dream of his for many years. Brian and his team at Florida Southern Roofing want to help those “Heroes”. Jim Sleter’s story is like many others in our community, on a fixed income and in need of a new roof. In addition to their new roof, Matt Ryan repaired a large area on their ceiling where they had previous damage due to a previous roof leak. And Chris, Junior, Gilberto and Jacob sanded and repainted their rod iron patio furniture.

          

Thank you, VFW Post 12055, for nominating Jim and Jackie Sleter.

On a personal note, Dave Daily, Graham Ellis, Jim & Jackie Sleter and all of the VFW Post 12055 members that we met at the Sleter’s home, are some of the most friendly, helpful and compassionate people we have ever met. From nominating Jim Sleter, asking what they could do to help, to bringing donuts, bagels and hot coffee to the work site at 6:30am on one of the coldest mornings we have had this year. Then staying through the rain and coming back to cook hamburgers for everyone on a second day in the rain. It was an honor to meet Jim and Jackie Sleter, they are truly amazing and grateful people.
