Thanksgiving
The world is not in a good state of being and many people are suffering throughout the world, and yet we should count our blessings. Let’s give thanks for what we do have, our health, our families, and our friends. Below are photos from our archives showing past Thanksgiving celebrations as well as gatherings of families and friends.
