A Very Sammie Christmas *Update*

Sammie Christmas

Do to the overwhelming generosity of readers of GNIN and neighbors, alike. The family in need that we had reported on earlier this month had a great Christmas celebration. The parents of the family extend the following gratitude.

“This has been the most overwhelming feeling of joy and happiness that we could ever experience. There are no words to explain the gratitude and happiness that you have given us. Because of you all, my children are happy to live with us in this home. My daughter asked me today if we could have her birthday party at home this year because how fun are house has become…I dont think she could ever realize what that means to us to have our children be proud of where they live and want to share that with others. We have cried more times in the past 24 hours than we have our whole lives. You have all given us a great gift that can never ever be forgotten. Thank you all so very much for a Christmas that will live on in our hearts for the rest of our lives. It is because of all of you that we have newfound faith in the goodness of the world. Bless you all”

Thanks again from the GNIN Team
