December Greetings…
I truly believe it’s the most wonderful time of the year. Except for Summer when it’s not cold. And also Fall when it’s my birthday. Still, we’re in the Christmas mood and this issue has many stories that demonstrate the giving spirit of Georgetown, and a lot of people who are simply generous every day of the year.
I was so thrilled to meet Karen Dooley and hear about her Uncle “Sonny Boy,” who is finally coming home to rest after being lost to his family at Pearl Harbor. Her story brings comfort and the refreshing reminder that when Americans say, “Never forget,” we still mean it.
Many thanks to Representative Terry Wilson, who gave us the inside scoop on the State House re-districting. It’s always wonderful to get details from a first person, non-filtered source.
I’m also so pleased to bring you the first of what I believe will be many stories about the new Samsung site and the prodigious impact it is going to have on our whole county for generations to come. Spoiler alert, this is really big! Congratulations to Judge Bill Gravell, Taylor Mayor Brandt Rydell, and the whole team, for an award truly well-earned. I heard the Judge say, as they finally confirmed the new site, Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
