New Glarus Home Residents Send Thanks

Dear Editor,
On behalf of the residents at the New Glarus Home, I am sending out a big thank you to all the good people in the area that donated items for our resident’s shopping spree. All the residents were given the opportunity to pick out five gifts for their loved ones.
Also those individuals that took an envelope off our Giving Tree and returned a gift bag back to the home, so every resident got a bag of goodies from Santa. Thank you to our mighty fine Santa, also.
May your year be filled with good health and happiness.
Marilyn Mellenberger,
