City lights awed visitor
Dear Editor,
Thanks to the City of Rockford and the employees for decorating the City with sparkling lights. They left me in awe, a 93-year-young lady, with a renewed spirit of the holiday season.

Another option for holiday giving
Dear Editor,
I read “What Gift to Give” by Pastor Michael Cisler, and would like to add one more idea:
If you don’t want to donate money to a charity in their name as a gift, how about adding another name to your Christmas list: Jesus.
As a present for Christ on His birthday, I’d like to suggest that you give to a charity of your choice an amount equal to the cost of the wrapping paper you used on the gifts you gave to others on His birthday.
