To the Editor:
We would like to thank all who were involved in the incredibly successful supper and yard sale benefit for the late Mikie Simmons Aug. 28. Although the outcome inevitably was not what we had hoped, it was a wonderful tribute to Mikie.
Thanks to all involved with donating, cooking, working and the generosity that made this such a successful event. Thanks to Borealis Breads and Atlantic Baking Company for their generous donations of bread. The community support has been overwhelming.
