Dear Family, Friends and Website Visitors,

Well the time is almost here. Hundreds of bags have been filled and await the welcome hands of their recipients. As a matter of fact, many people who dine at the soup kitchen have been inquiring if the "Hat Lady and Her Grandchildren" will be passing out bags again on Thanksgiving. Those in need are so grateful for the necessities in life. We can all learn from this very valuable and humbling lesson.

So here's an extra thank you, ahead of time, for the effort and contributions from all involved. I couldn't do any of this without your help.

I will let you know how Thanksgiving Day goes so prepare yourself for some Chicken Soup for the Soul commentary.

Blessings to All,

Lauren
