From the Police Chief
By Police Chief David Miles
This week there will be
many gifts exchanged, alot of
celebration and merriment.
There will be food beyond
imagination. It’s the time of
year where families come
together and friends renew
their acquaintances. Let
us remember that this is a
celebration about the gift
that God gave to us. And for that we have
Faith, Hope and Love and the greatest being
love. I pray that everyone stays safe, you get
everything you wished for and this be your
best Christmas ever. And may I be politically
incorrect by wishing everyone a very merry
Christmas.
