2020 Home for the Holidays

2020 Home for the Holidays LINCOLN DAILY NEWS November 25, 2020 Page 49 From Emily Davenport Logan County Board Chairman This has been a very trying year for everyone, but I truly believe if we pull together as a community we will make it through. On behalf of the Logan County Board, I wish everyone a happy holiday season, as well as, good health. --- From Annie Coers New Holland Mayor As I look back at the 2020 year that has drug on forever but yet has flown by so quickly, I realize how blessed I truly am. Every day is a new day. Life can truly be a struggle but standing strong and accepting what is put before you can make you a new person. Covid-19 has changed many of us forever; some for the bad, some for the good. We have lost loved ones, lost a job or business and maybe even lost your will to survive. The best thought for the year that I found in my daily calendar is, “Try something new each day. After all, we were given life to find it out. Living doesn’t last forever.” ~ Ruth Gordon Roll with each punch. Try to find the positive in every bad situation and remember to take time out for your family. Build those memories that will last a lifetime. Christmas isn’t about the presents under the tree. It’s about the memories we share with one another. As a child I don’t remember the gifts under the tree, but I remember how I felt to share the day with my siblings, parents, grandparents and aunts/uncles. Make that family bond stronger and create a new tradition. Cook a meal for that homeless veteran or call that friend who you haven’t talked to in years. Christ is the reason for the season. --- From Tracy Welch Acting Mayor for Lincoln This has been an interesting year but in ways we never imagined. We have faced many challenges and as a result, have grown to better understand the value of community and time with our loved ones. My wish is that Greetings and warm wishes to you from a few of our most favorite people Continued n
