Thank you very much for the kind words of congratulations and encouragement. I am thrilled to have received e-mails saying the article I wrote, "told it like it is." I was amazed that so many people who knew me read Opportunity World Magazine and on top of that would take the time to contact me. Awesome!!!!

I will send an individual thank you to each of you. Currently I am in chilly - correct that very cold West Virginia. I return late tomorrow night to Florida.

It has been an early Thanksgiving for me this year. My son Jim, received a favorable report on the progress of his detached retina. I have been given a wonderful opportunity over the past several days to share time with my grandsons, Jake and Jonah and feel needed while Carol is attending a conference in Nashville. It was very nice of her to invite me to help out. I also heard from my son Tom that his family is happily settling into life in Texas. I'll have turkey on Thursday but my Thanksgiving blessings arrived early.

May each of you enjoy a safe and happy Thanksgiving with your family and friends. Judy
