About Santa

In the mid-80’s a friend asked me if I could be Santa Claus at a nursing home where she worked. I gladly accepted, did a tour in the geriatric wing then I went to the mentally challenge wing. I went in and what a wake up call, you see a 30 years old man with the mind of a 2 years old. All he wanted was a red fire truck. When I gave him his present the Christmas spirit in me just exploded the smile on his face and the glow in his eyes was priceless. The best feeling I have seen. Since that day I took the Santa’s duty and if I can bring a smile or a glow on a child’s face it is what it’s all about. Children in my book are from 0 to 99. Merry Christmas
