Thanksgiving is a happy holiday, with gatherings, good food, and children returning home. A granddaughter a few years ago married a ‘Brit’ and settled in England. There are good people all over this world. In England the in-laws celebrate our holiday for our Kiley. We appreciate their generous treatment of respect and like to think that the whole world is a better place because of their gift.

Players come from our area only this week, Iowa players were hit by illness.
