I’ve been asked to fill 100 words…which is not nearly close enough to sing the praises of theGrapevine’s “Third Person”, Laura MacDonald. Laura is somewhat new to the community but is already fitting inmarvelously well. Her writing abilities and employment experience at the Gaspereau Valley Press are valuable resources. Herwillingness to go late into the night on construction nights proves that she understands the responsibility associated with thispaper. This is the third issue she’s been involved with and I look forward to many, many more. Laura, you’re great! PS – we metmany outstanding people during the selection process.
