It is so important to say thank you....It seems like a little thing but it does mean a great deal. We say thank you every day in all kinds of ways, from letting a fellow driver pull out into traffic, or stopping to pick up trash off the floor, to holding a door open for a stranger, or sharing the fare on a cab. These little ways of saying thank you make us better people. They give off little messages that say you matter, that someone noticed. Volunteers do this every day with their selfless efforts to make our lives better.
Our library system is a wonderful place thanks to our volunteers. Every job they perform, every task they see through makes this place a happier place to be. It's not just the jobs that get done, but their great smiles, their stories of family and friends, their love of life and their joy in sharing it with others.
