Thank you to all the women who nominated me for the Woman of the Year award for the Cedar Springs Women’s Club. I am humbled by this great honor. Stay safe, stay strong and continue doing service by reaching out to others and spreading kindness. Let’s show this virus that the Women’s Club is stronger than it is. God bless you all.

A special “thank-you” to two special readers, Vern and Lenora Lanning, for brightening our day. Your note of appreciation, along with your donation, was just what the doctor ordered! Also, our thanks here at The Post to Jeffrey and Ashley Uhen, also from Cedar Springs, for their contribution to their hometown weekly newspaper.

And, not to be forgotten, to Ranger Steve for his wonderful articles that he writes (pro bono) on our world of nature. We especially appreciate last week’s article. You’re a great guy Ranger Steve!

Sincerely, 

Lois Allen, Publisher of The Post

I was a little shocked to see the article my daughter, Lois, put in her newspaper, The Post, regarding my 90th birthday.

I have received over 70 wonderful and heartwarming cards and notes from old friends and well-wishers of which many that I don’t even know!

It made my birthday very “Happy” and special this year. Thank you all!

Alice Allen

I want to give a heart-felt “Thank you” to those of you (and you know who you are) that sent my mother, Alice Allen, a birthday card in celebration of her 90th birthday. As a senior in poor health, this pandemic is taking its toll on her physically and emotionally. Getting those cards meant the world to her and lifted her spirits when she really needs it. Again, thank you for your kindness and the effort you made in this difficult time to reach out and show someone special to me that they are special to others, too. You are great!

Lois Allen

Alice’s birthday is this Saturday, July 18th, and there’s still time to shower her with more birthday cards.
