To the Editor:
Our family is honored to extend our deepest gratitude to several local businesses whose generosity recently brightened the lives of two families confronting the challenges of childhood cancer. Thanks to their kindness, these families were able to enjoy time on Long Beach Island and create cherished memories away from the weight of their daily struggles.
We wish to recognize Holiday Snack Bar in Beach Haven and especially Eileen Bowker for their remarkable generosity and support.
