Thanksgiving - A wonderful message from Faith

Dear Betty MacDonald Fans,

I got a wonderful mail from Faith and want to share it with you.

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Love,

Linde

Dear Linde,

I did have a happy Thanksgiving. And, as always, before digging into the roast turkey and stuffing, I felt thankful for all the good things in my life. And among the things I'm thankful for are Betty, and Betty's loyal friends around the world!

Best,
Faith
