Tony, your kindness and caring is beyond expression. Though I wrote you personally, I wanted to share and express to the community my appreciation for you. As mentioned, my daughter asked me if I still believe in Santa... I told her that I believe in anyone who expresses any kind of goodness and kindness. She said she wants to believe.
When she saw the mound of presents she was speechless (a first). I told her my friend at work (you) knows Santa well and that you thought she might appreciate a special Christmas (Hanukahmas) this year so you shipped her presents from Santa. (Since you are 'Santa' and you know yourself well, I told the truth, albeit a colorful one.)
She experienced first hand the goodness and kindness by someone who had never met her and that I know has made a lasting impression on my daughter who is a very old soul. She got one more year of believing in Santa because of you. I know she will forever believe that there are people out there who care, like you. I pray she will forget this year's memories of hardship, but I know for certain she will never forget this holiday. Nor will I. My deepest gratitude, Lori xo
And this is her thank you to you...
