Boys & Girls Club Christmas Party - the party was held December 21st. James Barry, Exec.Director of LaRosa Boys & Girls Club in McKeesport wrote a thank you letter which reads in part...."I wanted to extend our most sincere appreciation for all you do for our kids. The exquisitely wrapped Christmas gifts all specially put together with such love and attention to detail are so warmly received by their special recipients.... One of the young girls proudly stood up showing the gift she received and exclaimed, "Somebody loves me!"
