Dear Editor:
I walked briskly along Lonsdale Avenue last Friday evening (Dec. 6), warmly bundled up as the temperature had fallen several degrees below zero.
As I entered London Drugs, a middle-aged woman - clearly shuddering in the frigid cold - was collecting for the Salvation Army. Her bell resonated in the glacial winter air.
An elderly couple approached this saintly volunteer and inquired if she was warm enough. She responded that she had given her only winter jacket to a destitute man on the street that afternoon.
If we are searching for meaning in the Christmas season, we need look no further than the Salvation Army.
Yes, there are angels.
