SMCC director, Deborah Wryn ___________________ 12-31-lc Dear Santa, My curiosity was piqued to try and discover your identity. I wanted to show my appreciation with a gift, but don’t have a clue where to send it. I want you to know what an impact your thoughtful gesture had on me. Sometimes daily life seems so pointless and the battle endless. That is where I was when your card arrived. Your anonym ity makes me see everyone in a new light. So while the gift itself was useful and appreciated, the gift of your encouragement and support was far more valuable. The kids used theirs for Christ mas shopping and I’m going to use mine to buy myself new clothes. So, whoever you are, thank you for your generosity and thought fulness and the gift of hope I re ceived as a result. If anyone read ing this doubts his existence, yes, there really is a Santa Claus. The happiest of New Years to you, Santa. Terri Bennetto and Family ___________________ 12-31-lc We would all like to thank ev eryone for their cards, flowers and prayers during our recent losses. A special thank you to the two gals I work with that put in a lot of extra hours while I was gone, and to a great boss that gave me the time off that I needed. Thank you Rick and Sheila for housesitting. Thank you everyone.
