Congratulations! All the best, Coert

Congratulations. In light of all of the struggles and turmoil we face as a country, it is great to be reminded of how lucky we are for the freedoms we enjoy.

Best wishes for your continued success in the land of your opportunities. What a great freedom to be able to choose where to be a citizen.

David,

Best wishes on your day, and what a great venue for the ceremony! Very glad to have you as a fellow American.

Cheers,

Mike

Welcome aboard and thanks for contributing to the wonderful diversity that makes this country so great.

David,

Congratulations on this milestone for you!

Warmly,

Bill

Congratulations!

Our country is richer with your citizenship and that of many others who strive to become Americans.

Please vote regularly and responsibly. People around the world struggle for the freedoms we enjoy; yet many Americans do not vote. (We had a primary here in California yesterday and turnout was meager.)

Best wishes,
Erin

My heartfelt congratulations, David. I’m so pleased for you and Kathy both.

I hope part of your celebrations this week will include registering to vote, so you can fulfil the paramount responsibility of a citizen in a democracy: casting an informed vote.

(And if you need someone to nag you to remember to vote—in primaries and local elections as well as the big November races—well, that’s one of my specialties and you know where to find me.)

Congratulations, David. You are a welcome addition to the USA.

Congratulations. And thank you.

Congratulations! And welcome!

Welcome aboard! And thanks for blogging and posting your work.

David, how fantastic! Funny tho, somehow I figured you’ve already got the Life, Liberty and Pursuit of happiness thing down cold. Best wishes from a half & half—we’re better for having you.

Congratulations, David! It gives me great hope for the US that smart people still want to come here and become American citizens—despite all of our problems.

We are pleased to have you.

Many congratulations! Having just been to a friend’s citizenship ceremony in London, I realise there is something quite moving about this rite of passage.

David,

First, congratulations and welcome.

Second, I was in Boston yesterday at that hour and can only apologize for the truly horrific weather served up for your important day. If you survived without looking like a wet rat, you did better than most of us.

Congratulations, David. And thanks for sharing … your enthusiasm and excitement leaps off your post. I share it and I’m not even a US citizen!

It is a natural aspect of humankind that we take whatever we value most for granted. In the U.S. it continues to be the boundless opportunity. Thank you for reminding me of that and congratulations on your citizenship.

David,
Congratulations, now you will be part of what makes America so great, you have a vision and most of all you care.

Congratulations! Growing up in Boston, I can imagine it was an added thrill to become as U.S. citizen in that hallowed place. Best to you and your family

From Shaula’s right-hand man, a warm and heartfelt congratulations to you, David. As I am presently working my way through immigration into Canada, it is always great to hear a success story. May the U.S. remain good to you!
Sincerely,
Gavin Sheehan

Dear David,
My deepest and most sincere congratulations. Welcome. May your adopted homeland continue to fill your life with peace, joy and love.

Don’t discard the your British passport! You now have the added benefit of choosing the shortest line in customs when coming or going across the pond.

But in all seriousness, congratulations and best wishes. Stories and testimonies like yours are a great reminder for us natural-born citizens not to take our country for granted.

As promised, here's your personal election reminder, David. Best wishes on casting your first vote as a newly-minted American citizen.
