At the Christmas Party, our Silent Hero Marie, donated the cost of the Dell computer for the Story Station in the Children's area. She presented the Friends with a cheque for $1,292.76. Marie's kindness and generosity is so very much appreciated. On behalf of the Friends, the Library and the children who will use the computer, we say thank you Marie, for being a "Friend" and for your unconditional support. FLOWERS The Library comes alive with the lovely floral creations by Marion Nodwell. Thank you so much. The arrangement for the ASM was quite magnificent.
