Christmas Tree Lighting



Oh it was a wonderful night for the Christmas Tree Lighting and everything was perfect except that I fell and have a small fracture in my leg. Other than that, it was a fabulous evening.

Several people had asked me to publish the words to the poem that was read to Nate by the mayor so here it is.

Nate, The Great

There is a man in town called Nate
And in our mind, he really does rate!

He is always where he needs to be
Lending a hand to you and me.

He does a lot of work at Public Works
And we all know he's Not without his quirks!

But he goes far beyond his duty, I say
To be helpful in each and every way!

Our town is much richer today
Because of Nate's most generous way.

We honor him as he lights the tree
He is as deserving as anyone can be!

So Thank You, Nate, for all you do
for this little town that you love so true.

Now, don't get the big head, for goodness ake
When we all agree that you ARE Nate, the Great!
