A heartwarming video featuring a mother-daughter duo from San Antonio's Parks and Recreation Department stole the spotlight during the recent City Council meeting. Although Mother's Day was last weekend, the video highlighted the special bond between the two employees, showcasing their dedication to maintaining the city's parks.

Savannah Rodgers and her mother, Veil Linares, shared their experiences working in urban park operations and trail maintenance. "I love servicing the parks," said Savannah, who has been with the department for over three years. Veil, with five years of experience, emphasized the importance of creating a safe environment for park visitors. "I try to make it clean and safe for everyone," she noted.

The video not only celebrated their familial connection but also underscored the values of professionalism and growth within the workplace. Veil expressed pride in seeing her daughter thrive in the same field, stating, "It is any mother's dream... I get to see the beauty and the outcome."

This touching portrayal of family and service resonated with council members, who acknowledged the significant number of families working within the city's 13,000-employee team. The video serves as a reminder of the community spirit and dedication that drives San Antonio's public service efforts.
