Summertime greetings to all my favorite people who continue to support me. I appreciate everyone of you for your for being the person you are. Many of you go beyond the call of duty. It takes us all to make a difference in our community, state and world. There are so many things we can't do anything about, but we do have a part. Look around you, there are people hurting, physically, mentally and so forth. You may need to lend a heling hand, say encouraging words and even pray for them. There may not be much we can do, but we do know who can handle all things, Our Heavenly Father. There is nothing too big or too small for him. Reach out to others in Love. You will be truly blessed beyond measure.
