I'm glad to see this in the newspaper! Don't forget to give the seniors some wants too, like perfume or something nice. I did this last year for a lady who knew exactly what she wanted: hot rollers, pink lipstick, and chantilly. I love it!

So many people help children at Christmas, and we forget that our seniors are lonely and needy. If you can't buy a gift, see if you can visit and have a conversation with them, or offer your time to volunteer at a senior center.
