Thank you to he Weathervane for donating the holiday cards to be sent to Gloucester service men and women serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. Thank you to all the businesses that donated to the WW2 Memorial and helped to make the memorial a reality. Joe Parisi was happy to have a job offer from Jackson Lumber in Lawrence. Joe's wife Di, accepted the offer for him. Maggie Rosa was happy to look at the preservation work on the City Hall tower. Mike Sarraf was happy he was not picked as a juror for a 5-week trial at the Federal Courthouse in Boston. Rudy Macchi was happy Carole Sharoff taught him how to make up a meeting on line. (Carole, did you also teach Rudy how to turn on his computer?) Judy LaFontaine was happy for the help the Food Pantry received from the Interact Club at Thanksgiving time. Julie was also happy that her mother and father came for a visit during Thanksgiving. Pat Thorpe was happy his in-laws were visiting for 4 days, and Pat was mostly happy that he managed to spend those 4 days away from his house.
