“What Are You Grateful for This Holiday Season?”

MAXINE

“I am so thankful for a great supportive family.  I love working on the Banner team. I think everyone on the team has a great working relationship. It keeps me out of trouble. I have had many opportunities to travel with great friends to locations that I would never have gone to, thanks to being on bowling teams that traveled to different cities in the U.S. for national tournaments. We even went to a taping of the Price Is Right in Hollywood California in 2007. I couldn’t have asked for anything better.”

“I am thankful for the many blessings God has given me and my family, including the opportunity to publish The Catoctin Banner. In less than a year as the new owner, I have already met so many amazing people from our community, and being able to share all the good things with our readers makes my heart full.”

“I’m grateful for my loving husband, my three children, and my son-in-law; I’m grateful for the air in my lungs, all the beauty of nature that surrounds me, and sunshine on my face; I’m grateful for my friends who bring me smiles and laughs…and compassion; I’m grateful I can move, walk, feel, and think. I’m grateful for every experience—good or bad—that has helped me to grow as a human being.”
