Thankful for?

What I am most thankful for is the community we live in. Venice has such a fantastic population. Venice not only supports local businesses such as mine all year long—and especially in the long hot summer—this town also gives wholeheartedly to those in need and supports its young athletes and students with vigor.

Thankful for?

I’m thankful for God. He helps me when I am discouraged or going through hard times. He helps me appreciate what I do have and not focus on what I don’t have. Also, the kindness of strangers. I recently read about an anonymous farmer who purchased 100 generators for Hurricane Dorian victims in the Bahamas. I found this so heartwarming.

Thankful for?

For America, the greatest country ever. For my loving and guiding parents and siblings, and my grandparents who came from "the old country." For my partner, Shirley, and our honest, true friends. For the opportunity to leave the world a better place; in the words of Walt Whitman, "Whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition, to know even one life has breathed easier." Happy Thanksgiving!
