My Thanksgiving Message

My Thanksgiving Message to loved ones. A loved one once told me "You are a fighter" that I am. For many of my loved ones, we remain separated. Be thankful we are alive and together we will make it through these times. I will not celebrate with a Turkey feast, only holding my thoughts for all on this day. All my love James.
