A Day Of Thanks

First, I thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for delivering on his promises to me.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the Coalition of Alzheimer's Families for bestowing upon me the honor of serving as spokesperson for the support group. It has been a responsibility that at times has been very difficult, but mostly it has been fulfilling. I have never served with a greater group of people in my life, and I can sincerely say their resolute attitude is not often seen in our society. Serving with them on this meaningful cause has ultimately been more gratifying for me than any other task I have ever undertaken.

On behalf of COAF, I would like to thank everyone who has assisted us even in the smallest of ways in what some have called a herculean effort, we could not have achieved any of our goals without your support. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

What we as a people in Northampton County, PA united by a meaningful cause have accomplished is truly historical. I personally believe that I live in the greatest county in the state, if not the country. The minority that want to sell Gracedale may say that we are a “lynch mob”, but the majority who oppose the sale know better. There is a reason that we have succeeded time and time again, because we have done the right things - the right way.

Unlike our opposition, as responsible and concerned citizens we have always played by the rules, standing firm on the rock of truth, and as such today we reap the rewards. This moment in our history will truly be a great educator for our posterity, who will learn by this tremendous action that TRUTH trumps LIES any day of the week. They will understand that “good guys finish last” is nothing more than a myth created by lesser men who want to control so that they may benefit. TRUTH however, is the lamp that lights our way, and if we seek TRUTH we will find our way.

Lastly, consider just how many agree with our position, including our judicial system, and how few the other…a million flies can’t be wrong. But sadly the work is not done. The “ruthless three” will stop at nothing to derail our train of compassion. We The People cannot, and will not allow this desperate trio to trip us on our final leg of the race…NO, we must dig deep within and muster the last ounce of energy to propel us through them...to the finish line. Then, and only then, (in the words of Jesus hanging on the cross) it is finished.

Please understand that we cannot take even a short much needed break, for it may allow our adversary to pass us…No, we MUST push on, for we can now see the finish line.

God Bless our great Democracy...and America

  1. It IS a day to say THANK YOU! To God, to The COAF,to the many people who have believed in the need to save Gracedale for the current Residents and all who will come after. Rev. Martinez is correct. Many challenges have been met but there is still one major one left. THE VOTERS OF NORTHAMPTON COUNTY MUST VOTE YES ON THE GRACEDALE INITATIVE ON ELECTION DAY. Do not let the trio of Stoffa, Angle and O'Hare scare you with their lies. They have tried to tell lies over and over but the Courts saw thru them. People have choices-make the right one.

  2. You really have to appreciate the beauty of B.O. In one post he's bragging about the Chamber of Commerce fueled fund raiser at the Pomfert Club at which he donated to Dowd, and on the other hand he is hitting a slate of candidates in Lehigh County negatively for raising money, the very same thing he just got done praising Dowd for doing.

  3. To Commentor #2:
    As has been said over and over, you are correct. We all now know just who is the fake, phoney fraud who hides behind distortions of the truth.
    According to BO,he claims that he even does not receive special attention at the Courthouse.
    Anyone who would see the devious threesome in action would see the truth as it really is.
    BO should be on the side of the people and be holding his politician buddies to the fire in order to make Gracedale work instead of trying to destroy what is good for all.
    He knows how to fix Gracedale and so does Stoffa and Angle. They simply want to place money somewhere else, OR they are hiding something.
    Come out, come out, where ever you are.

  4. This person called "Brenda", based upon her few remarks about Alzheimer's, does not really know too much about the disease. For if she did, her tone would be alot different.

  7. You know I only ever saw Bernie in his picture he posts on his blog. That is until I watched the show. I have been thinking about who he reminds me of and have come to the conclusion it isn't a "who" it is a "what".
    I posted this on his blog and I am sure it will be gone in short order because he is very vain.

    You know the last time I saw a set of lips like that they had a hook in them. That is why I will now and forever refer to him as;

    MISTER LIMPIT

    THE NOT SO INCREDIBLE
    NOT AT ALL CREDIBLE
