Editor:

The Gateway Center, Inc., along with Crisp County DFCS and Crisp County Board of Education would like to express a special thanks to the individuals, agencies, churches, schools and businesses that contributed to the 2009 Adopt-an-Angel Toy Drive.

With your contributions we were able to serve over 1000 children. With today’s economy the way it is, there was no wonder that at Christmas there was fear that the Adopt-an-Angel program would not be able to serve as many children and families as it had in years past.

However, thanks to the wonderful and overwhelming support of many businesses, groups, organizations, churches, schools and individuals, our community was able to serve 1000 children in the spirit of giving at Christmas.

What a wonderful way to support the children of our community!

For all those who helped to make this event a success, a sincere thank you and may God bless you all.

Sometimes, no matter the pain inflicted, a woman must be blunt with a man. Like the other day, when I informed Mr. Man that he is “bumbling.”

New Year’s resolutions can be bad for our egos. They practically scream, “Aha, I gotcha…you’re a failure.”
