Connected with this, a plan is developing to visit the Christmas lights in Hightland Park on bikes one evening, a common event.  We have our guide, Chris Phipps, who lives there, and the old geezer can second, since this is his old neighborhood.  Get your bike lights polished.

    From Tom Quinn: Do you know anyone interested in an entertainment center?  It’s a beautiful piece of blonde furniture that is in great condition.  I can’t seem to get any of the Charities to pick it up as I don’t have the vehicle to deliver it.  Quinn, Tom & Theresa, E-mail Address:  tntquinn@peoplepc.com

    November 25: No Mass the Sunday just after Thanksgiving.  Rosemary & I will be at her sister Clare’s house.

    A note from Becky Good:

    Legacy Preparatory Charter in Plano is looking for a few good church families to donate to our neediest school families.  If you're one of those who feels the need to answer this call please email me so that I can make you part of the document that will contain the list of our neediest families and their children with ages and sizes.

    I will create a Google doc that can be seen by anyone so when a person signs up for a child/family everyone can see that child/family is taken/spoken for.  It should be an easy way of filling the slots without back-and-forth emails.   

    Should you want to donate money instead, email me and we will find a way to receive it if you don't want to drop off a check.

    Here's my email:  Bgood@legacypca.com

    As always, Legacy and I thank you for your constant generosity.  You are making a difference in our school community.  Thank you again.

    Checks and gifts/donations need to be dropped off by Monday, 12/15/20, so they can get it to the families.
