So tomorrow is Thanksgiving……
…..admist all the bad economic news, the frustrating political rhetoric, blah, blah, blah…..what in our community inspires your thanks?
The people who quietly go about volunteering and lending a hand to others here in WNY…doing the stuff I do on the East Side, I am always struck at level of caring and compassion I see from others who simply help to help. A lot of these folks don’t want a pat on the back for helping…they step and do because they care.
My thanks to the countless and faceless volunteers who help to make Buffalo and WNY a better place for others.
Chris B—As I saw on a Church message sign in NC yesterday…..Don’t count what you do, make sure what you do counts. I know you and many others in WNY do. For if you weren’t, what would it be like?

Happy Thanksgiving!
I’m thankful that we don’t live in New Jersey. I’m also thankful that we are adjacent to Canada.
