During these uncertain times we are very grateful that our family is healthy and that we can contribute to the care and support of others. Karen continues to work the front lines as a nurse at the hospital and is very happy when patients are able to return home to their families. We are also grateful that our children still have the opportunity to continue their education albeit in a different fashion than is customary.

In this difficult time of 2020, we still find ourselves very grateful for so many things – doctors, nurses, and other front line workers who are helping to save lives; scientists and researchers who are tirelessly looking for answers; technology that allows us to virtually gather and attempt to carry on with our lives while being safe at a distance; jobs that allow for working at home; teachers who are shifting on a dime to continue to educate; and resilient children who have adapted and are rising to take on today’s challenges. We wish everyone in the Marple community a restful and meaningful Thanksgiving holiday!

We are thankful for the extra time we have been able to spend with our family through this pandemic, and movie nights together! We are also extra thankful for a family member who is working very hard on some personal issues and making positive strides for a better life!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING 2020, to all our Marple Friends & Neighbors!
