First, I want to congratulate Coach Tullos and the Cherokee Braves on their awesome basketball season. Each of you young men should be so proud of yourselves and your accomplishments.  My family and I, here in Oklahoma, are some of your biggest fans.

To you, Dustin Johnson #22, my awesome, talented grandson, congratulations on your amazing season and making All-Conference!  You’re a great all around basketball player with stats that prove it. With (39) points in one game, a triple double, are you kidding me?!

We are so proud of Dustin and believe he has a bright future ahead. Wish we all could have been there for every game in person. Luckily, with Dustin’s mom Winona and the Cherokee One Feather online, we were able to keep up with all the Braves basketball games and see the awesome pictures that Scott McKie Brings Plenty took.  Can’t wait until next year!  GO BRAVES!

Sincerely,

#22’s Grandma Reba, Tahlequah, Okla.
