Merry Christmas

 

the-birth-of-christ

I’m sitting here on Christmas Eve, watching television images of tornado damage on two small towns just east of where we live.  Four people, all probably looking forward to fun times with family and friends in the coming days, are dead.  Millions of dollars in damages to property.   Makes it easy to forget that it’s Christmas time.  Thankfully, we, along with everyone we know, are fine.

That being said, Wanda and I would like to wish each and every one of you a very Merry Christmas.  May you holidays be filled with joy and fellowship with family and friends.  May 2015 bring you happiness that is beyond measure. 

And, please stop and remember the real  “Reason for the Season”.

  7. Jerry, I am so saddened by the tornado damage, but so glad you and Wanda are safe.

    It's a little late, but your "reason for the season" warmed my heart.

    Wishing the best of everything for you and yours in 2015.
