Forever thankful ... over the years our lives change in many ways. With Thanksgiving upon us, we reflect on the joys and sorrows of years gone by. We have much to be thankful for! Sometimes the memories are so bittersweet it is actually hard to hold back the tears. Scenes from the past that are etched in our minds allow our thoughts to travel back thru the years. Sweet memories forever etched ... Thanksgiving “2015” the young and the old together will create new memories. All across our great country, friends and family will gather to give thanks, enjoy each other’s company and share a delicious meal with those we cherish. The thought of a crisp golden brown turkey, fresh out of the oven, the scent of grandma’s spicy pumpkin pie, yes, whether it’s a single, hand-delivered plate with fixin’s piled high or a large gathering of friends and family, new memories will be made, we will give thanks for our many blessings, family, friends and health and those who serve this great country we call home! Happy Thanksgiving and many blessings to each of you!
