Contra Costa Marketplace - Dec 2016

Deb’s Dialog Editor’s Notes Join Us For Our Annual Memorial Tree Celebration, Saturday, December 3rd DECEMBER 2016 MARKETPLACECONTRACOSTA.COM 7 Season’s Greetings! I know many of our advertisers and some of readers have probably been wondering where I have been lately. I have been semi-retired and enjoying life with my husband Brian and spending a lot of time with my daughter and my two grandsons. Life is short and even my grandsons are getting big now. Pretty soon they will be off doing their own things in life so it’s best for me to take advantage of the time I have left with them. DEBORAH LUDLOW STEVENS While I am semi-retired, I want to take a moment to publically thank my staff who has kept the spirit of the Contra Costa Marketplace going. I love being able to continue to read about the wonderful things happening in West County. It always warms my heart. Thank you. Deborah As the year comes to a close and I think back to just this last month with the elections. I want to remind everyone to be kind. Without getting political here, as we like to write about happy things in West County; it is important the we can affect what happens in our own communities and families. You can make a difference to a neighbor, a friend, colleague, a child through your own words and actions. While no one person can control what JULIA SMITH happens next with the leadership of our nation, we can however make our immediate community a better place. I personally wish everyone a wonderful holiday season as we all try to create a bit of happiness wherever we go.
