There has been a cornucopia of area people, businesses, organizations, and events featured in this column during the past year. I contacted some of them to ask their thoughts about the coming year.
Arlene Lihou’s of Women AGLOW, said, “I have a desire for world peace and for people not to be in need of food and shelter; and, to know the love of Jesus Christ.”
Mrs. Jeanne Frey, D. A. R. Registrar, said,
“It has been such a busy year that I am Grateful to have made it through it. Jean is looking forward to continued good health and lots of activities.
Donna Jeffers with St. Stephen’s Ministries, said, “Our focus will be on continuing education with other churches in this area that also have St. Stephen’s Ministries.”
Rita Goebert, Reverse Curves Quilt Club, said, “We are growing with new members. We’ll be doing a project for Faith Haven. They are refurbishing three bedrooms. We hope to make a quilt for the home.”
“We’d like to make things to share with other non profit organizations,” Rita said. “We’re finding what fun it is to make reversible vests as gifts.”
Jan Mahoney, C. A. Palmer Fife and Drum Corps, said, “In the coming year, we’ll add to our list of songs, work on a set concert performance; and sharpen our marching maneuvers.
“My Dream/wish/hope,” Jan said, “is to get more memory in my computer, so we can computerize our inventory.”
My own wish for you during the coming year is that you feel needed; that you love and be loved; and that you have responsibility for what you know is worthwhile.

2018 Up-Date: Sometimes, when I read what I’d written decades ago, I’m surprised. I don’t normally make New Year’s resolutions or have solutions, but my wish for you during the coming year is, still, that you feel needed; that you love and be loved; and that you have responsibility for what you know is worthwhile.
