WOW starting the eighth year of EyeOnMarco. 
 I want to thank everyone for their support.  As most of you know, I am passionate about Marco-- our Paradise.  Our most important asset is communication to spread the word to Marcoites where ever they are around the globe. Suggested 
Resolution: be kinder and gentler to all those we encounter and to reach out and help those who are not as fortunate as we are, play it forward!  Best to you and yours in 2016.  Bill
