ST. GEORGE — Crossing guard Chris Godfrey has spent the last eight years safely getting students to the door at Desert Hills Middle School. Other than his visibility vest, he doesn't have an official uniform but he's often sporting Green Bay Packers gear.
Carl Franke, the weight-training coach at Desert Hills Middle School, often noticed Godfrey's clothing and thought he could do something special for the crossing attendant. Franke has personal connections within the Packers organization. So he decided he would put it to good use.
"I leaned over to my daughter, who I take to school with me, and said 'I'd like to do something nice for him'," Franke told St. George News.
According to the school's principal, Ron Sharp, Godfrey has always shown commitment and dedication to his job. Godfrey, 55, almost never misses a shift, Sharp said.
