FRIDAYS: Let’s wear red

| April 22, 2020 1:00 AM

We need to go back to wearing red on Fridays to honor all the groups out there making sure we are safe. This includes law enforcement, fire and EMS, doctors, nurses and all who work to make us well and safe while knowing they could harm themselves.

Thank you to the grocery store employees, gas stations, who stay open so that we can get our needed goods.

Thank you to a special group MCL Pappy Boyington Detachment 966 for delivering meals. A special thank you to all caregivers who deal with people who have special needs. I am sure I may have missed someone, but you deserve a big thank you.

Yes you get upset because you can’t go to your favorite establishment or do the things you call normal. How about getting with your immediate family and spend some special times like talking, eating meals together, play games, be spiritual and be thankful you are well and safe.

If we all follow the guidelines set forth we will get through this but it will take everyone’s efforts.

Be Safe, Be Happy, Be Thankful.
