November 28, 2009, we pulled together with a Fundraiser party and received fifty filled Christmas socks for the needy. Santa and Mrs. Claus made their appearance along with the helpful Elf. It was a wonderful evening with music supplied by Frank, Slim and Diane and lots of food. Thank you to all who helped out.

Smile a Little Smile Little Children

December 1, 2009
Written by: Rose Marie Rideout

 
Today we’ve filled your little hearts,
 Put a smile upon your face,
As Santa makes his deliveries,
He drys those tears that fall in a race.
Too many wake up to nothing,
On Christmas day each year,
But together we have worked,
To dry each fallen tear.
So many pulled together,

To make a dream come true ,
To help out the needy,
Many thanks go out to each of you.
Fifty filled socks sit in boxes,
For Santa to and his crew,
To be delivered on Christmas,
To bring smiles to a few.
Therès Santa and his Mrs. Claus
Along with his faithful Elf.
And all the neighborhood,
Out with their support and help.
A group just pulling together,
To make a dream come true this year,
To make a child smile on Christmas,
Therès no need to shed a tear.

You guys are a wonderful example and inspiration... and soooo energetic!!! Great work all round, made light of by all your willing hearts and loving souls. There's great compassion and pro-activity running through the Perry family veins! Marvellous, Rose - and the outfits look great. xx

We do our little bit around here, collecting, donating, for the local orphan children, not only presents in the holidays but keeping an eye on them all year around, so they feel safe and take care of.

How very well done. How very well written. Though not religious, I know God's smile is upon those that give with that that may be seen and with that that may not be seen.

and with the economy the way it is, there is probably going to be more without then with this year.
I know the kids are going to appreciate all you've done!

Too many wake up to nothing,
On Christmas day each year

How true, but if we all follow your marvelous example,
far less will be blue. And Happy Holidays, to you!

Wonderful write, Rose; well done! Love the piccy! (I would love to see people help needy adults, though, not just the children!!)
