Building A Better Future
An open letter to Bucky Bailey
Bucky Bailey,
Your Father never gave up…..
Neither did we…….
This is the moment we brought PFAS contaminated soil to non-detectable levels.
The team celebrating success.
I wanted to let you know one of our team members was not able to see our finished product. Mike Holzschuh of Waste Management was not only a long-time client, he was a respected friend and colleague. We all called him “Big Mike” as he was a very large man and had a heart to match his size.
Your story brought us together, Bucky.
Big Mike was a driving inspiration to get things right.
PFAS is different. PFAS requires a paradigm shift in thinking to solve it. We erased the chalk board and started from scratch.
As Big Mike says…make a difference…there are no shortcuts…be stewards of the environment…. you don’t get a second chance to get it right. His last words to me…Love ya Bratha…
Godspeed Bucky
It’s going to take all of us to solve PFAS.
– Patrick
