Dear Editor:
Thank you for choosing to run my story on Friday, Dec. 20 about Smile Day.
My Smile Day on Monday, Dec. 23 was a huge success. I stood at the corner of Lonsdale and 15th Street for a total of five and a half hours with a smile sign and had a blast. Passersby and the motorists really got into the spirit. I had so many wonderful people from children to seniors come up to me and thank me and praise me for having the courage to do it. One woman I want to especially thank bought me a pair of gloves because my fingers were frozen. One young man from England asked if he could take my picture to send back home so they could see how friendly Canadians are.
I would like to thank everybody who participated because my heart was overflowing with joy. Thank you all very much. Let's keep smiling!
