From the East - It hardly seems possible that Father Time has gone, and with him, another year. Brother Jeff and I would like to extend wishes to all for a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year to all. We were recently reminded of how important it is to take time to be with those you love, and to enjoy all of the quiet beauty that is around us. We all have so much that we do, but it is essential that we remember during this New Year to take time for ourselves and our families - for that is the best way to always "Love one Another". With much fraternal love,
Jean C. Sudsbury, P.M.,
