A huge bunch of lovely blossoms to the Monroe Theatre Guild for its marvelous production of "Cinderella." The music was beautiful, the scenery was great and the singing and acting were a total joy to witness. Everyone involved deserves a big thank you for all their hard work and wonderful sharing of their gifts. In the most pleasant way, they allowed us see the beauty and hope of romantic love. May God bless them. - Anonymous

A huge blossom to the people who helped my 7-year old-son after he wiped out on his bike near his home on Monday evening. It's wonderful to know there are people out there who would take the time to stop and make sure he was OK and help him get back home. Your kindness was very much appreciated! - Shauna Paschal, thankful mom
