TO THOSE WHO CANNOT BE WITH US
A friend is someone we turn to
when our spirits need a lift
A friend is someone we treasure
for our friendship is a gift
A friend is someone who fills our lives
with beauty, joy, and grace
And makes the whole world we live in
a better and happier place
FROM THE EAST
Dear Sisters and Brothers,
We hope you had a safe and happy holiday. Looking back on the months gone by, as a new year starts and an old one ends, we contemplate what brought us joy, and we think of our loved ones and our friends. Lets put a hand out to help someone and and gain the best year yet!
David and I hope to see you in these cold winter months for some warmth and fellowship. Along with the new year comes new work. Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success. Let us have a Successful Year !
With Fraternal Love,
Barbara and David
