The last few months have been very difficult, but we have shown our generosity, kind spirit and resolve to weather the worst of the pandemic. I recently lost my father, and I am so appreciative to all who reached out either with a phone call, email or on social media to extend their sympathies. My dad was a giant in my eyes, and he will be dearly missed.
