Sir: I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank Bruce Corcoran and The Chatham Voice for all your help with putting articles in the paper about the needs of the Snow Angel program. I have written to all my shovellers and seniors and have told them I am retiring from the Snow Angel co-ordinator job. I have been doing it for six years, and this last year was a bit overwhelming.
I now have 50 seniors and 37 shovellers and it is too much for one person to take care of. I will try to find someone that is younger and super organized like I am.
Your help over the year has been priceless. Every time I would e-mail and ask for help, you would step up and help and you will never know how much I appreciated it. I will tell the new co-ordinator (if I find one) about your helpfulness because without news articles, I never would have found extra shovellers.
We have a great need out there, and everyone should help others if they are able in one capacity or another. Seniors work hard all their lives to be in their own home, and it is our responsibility to make sure they have that care. All of us will be seniors sooner or later and I would hope if we have our own house, someone would help us with this small task.
Thank you again for all your help. You will never know how much I appreciated it. It made my job a lot easier.
