We have our families! Yay! I met with my young paramedic friend, Tyson, today. He was just so happy to be able to help out. He wants no publicity. Nor does he w...ant people to know too many details. He said all he wanted was to be able to give. I gave him a hand blown glass angel to remind him that he is one. The families who will be gifted are also wanting anonymity. But if I keep it general, I can tell you a bit about each family. One is a single father with 3 children. The other is a Father who has an ailing wife and lots of kids! I have been bawling my eyes out! I would like to thank my other friends who have stepped up and offered to give to these gift baskets as well. One of them are bringing toys. Another is offering whatever I need and it just keeps comingI Wow! I am so grateful for all of you! Tears and cheers of joy! Love to all!

2020 has been a very difficult year for many. So...This young man, who has been able to keep working as an EMT wants to share his gratitude and hopefully ease someone else's suffering in a different way. He is a true angel. I am looking for a couple of families in Red Deer area, someone elderly, single parent, or someone who genuinely needs some help with a Christmas dinner hamper. I am meeting up with this young man on the weekend who wants to completely cover the cost of the whole dinner or maybe just buy a bunch of turkeys if it might go further. He is going to leave me in charge of who they go to. Please PM me. Sorry, for Red Deer Area only. I will be taking pictures and posting them of the families chosen.

We need to remember and honour what the soldiers and the people behind the lines did for our freedoms we enjoy today. We are supposed to learn from our history so it doesn't repeat itself. We can do more and better.
