| PRESIDENT'S MONTHLY NOTE | |
 Last year in the December newsletter, I reminisced about my sweet mother and our family's bittersweet journey as she gracefully (most of the time) progressed through the stages of Alzheimer's disease. Once again, with the holidays upon us, I find my thoughts wandering back to the memory of her. As I prepare for the holidays; baking, entertaining, trimming the tree, decorating the home, wrapping gifts, I am reminded of the many lessons she taught so effortlessly. Becky embodied the spirit of the season all year. What a perfect gift! My wish for you this holiday season is that the beautiful thoughts you hold will prevail all the while you are creating new, fond memories for you and your loved ones.
