We at the Franklin Reporter & Advocate would like to take a moment to wish all of our readers and advertisers the most joyous of holidays during this festive season.
Whether you will be having a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa or celebrating any of the other religious or secular holidays observed throughout the month – all part of the multicultural threads that together weave this wonderful quilt that is Franklin Township – we wish you happiness, health and peace.
At the same time, we know that there are those in the Eight Villages for whom this is not a very happy holiday season; our friends and neighbors who have experienced tragic loss during the course of the year, the sting of which is amplified during the holidays.
To you, we wish the comfort and peace and, yes, the joy, of your memories. Know that these are all gifts from your loved ones which you can open and celebrate every day of the year.
Sincerely,
Bill Bowman & PJ Parker, Co-Publishers
