What are you thankful for?

November 12th, 2009 at Thu, 12th, 2009 at 11:30 am by markklaas

The Reporter would like to hear from our readers if you have a special Thanksgiving-type story they wish to share.

Could it be you’re thankful for what you have despite living in difficult circumstances? Is there an Auburn family that has persevered through a plight? Is there a person who overcame major obstacles, even a health emergency? Are there other reasons to be more thankful today?

Contact us if you have a compelling story, an inspirational one to share.

Please e-mail: mklaas@auburn-reporter.com.

Thank you.
