On behalf of my daughter, grandchildren and myself, I thank all those who participated in helping our family during the Christmas season.

It is difficult to be so independent and then have an accident that takes that independence away for a while. Meeting family needs becomes more difficult and stressful.

The family had a good Christmas and is grateful for those who helped to make the season bright.

By the way, my daughter has started a new job and I am recuperating and should be back to work soon.

Thanks again for everyone’s thoughtfulness.
