Let him have lights

Sun., Nov. 22, 2015

Regarding the Shawn Vestal column of Nov. 11: The solution to Jeremy Morris and his apparent need for attention? We know the more we fuss, the more notice he gets. So, let him have his display.

Go see his lights, eat his candy, drink his hot chocolate, have your picture taken with Santa, ride the camel then go home to celebrate and enjoy your Christmas-your holiday-in the manner best-suited to your own belief.

It isn’t even Thanksgiving yet, but let me say, Merry Christmas, Happy Holiday and blessings and peace to all.
