Letters Compliance and Investigation employee earns kudos Shannon (Ferree), Thank you so much for sorting this out. I really appreciate your going the extra mile in helping me out with this. You are living proof that government employees are here to help people. Roger Stewart
Editor’s note: A bit of background for this letter. Mr. Stewart was directed to the Compliance and Investigation Program and Shannon Ferree by the Teton County Clerk’s office. Stewart, with Teton County Clerk’s office, realized that the VIN on his title and registration did not match the VIN on the car. Ferree helped fix the error on the title and registration. n
