Dear Commons Community,

For the past several years, my daughter, Dawn Marie, her husband Bruce and grand kids, Michael Anthony and Alissa, spend two weeks with Elaine and me for the Christmas holiday.

This year my daughter felt the need to visit Newtown, Connecticut.  She took with her a poster with messages from friends and colleagues where she lives and works in Poulsbo, Washington.  The messages expressed condolences and support for the families of the victims of the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School.  This holiday we all join in remembering and offering our support to the Newtown community.

Peace!

Tony
