I apologize to many residents whom may have made plans to meet with me this Saturday at Ritters Frozen Custard. I will need to cancel this as I will be out of town for several days. This week, after 92 healthy years on this planet, my Grandmother Carmela Cresciullo passed away. It came sudden but she had a long fruitful life. I thank all those that have been so compassionate and understanding. I also want to let folks know I will not be in attendance at tonight’s (Thursday, December 11th) Council Meeting. I will be present for the next community meeting on December 15.

On a more positive note, I recieved an email from a resident who is looking for our help. He, and his business, are looking to help out some families this Christmas. Taken the tough economic times for so many, this Holiday season may bring more anxiety then joy this year. It is so refreshing to know that there are folks that want to help, looking for nothing in return.
 

The individual, and his co-workers, can help 4 families by providing funds to ensure the children have a magical Christmas that would not be possible otherwise. While they are requesting the families in need are from District 3, being a Surprise resident in need will suffice. Also, the money provided must be utilized for gifts.
If you have anyone in mind let me know.
