Our group would like you to print a Thank You note to the people of Everett. Our Project, "Operation Merry Christmas 09", was a huge success due to the generous people of Everett. We asked for donation's and got them big time. We had such an overwhelming response that we sent out numerous boxes at Christmas and are planning to send out more in mid February. The success of our project happened with resident's donating goods as well as students, teachers, school personnel, private organizations. A special Thanks to Joe Hickey and Gerry Marenda for all of their help. The Veteran's Dept. funded all of our over-seas packages. The Vietnam Veteran's Club, Ald. Michael Marchese, Mayor Carlo DiMaria, Mark Glinner and especially all the resident's of our city. EVERETT IS AWESOME! THANK YOU! Hello,
