    • A year ago, many of us were huddled indoors, alone or with core family, preparing for a non-traditional, truncated holiday due to Covid 19. The world was on alert….From both a local and a larger perspective, I am thankful for the reset on values and priorities that I know happened for me. I am grateful for my friends who call themselves Chatham Democrats, and the larger community we call home. I know we have found strength in our connections.
