Dear Editor,

On the occasion of my retiring from the Windfall Thrift Store (and speaking also for the Forks Abuse Program as well as myself) I wish to express deepest gratitude to the folks of Forks for your generosity, your patronage and in many instances, your friendship.

The respect, laughs and incredible honesty that I have been afforded during my five years of waiting on you at the store have given me the most satisfying work experience I have ever had — period. Imagine having only one check bounce and just two failed promises-to-pay-later happen while I was behind the counter! Amazing!

Anyway, thanks so much everyone for helping support the Forks Abuse Program through your donations to and patronage of Windfall and thank you also for the distinct pleasure of serving you. Thanks, too, to Randy Simmons and Bob Otis for your company and ceaseless volunteer efforts.

Happy trails and best wishes from Mary and me and everyone at the Forks Abuse Program for a Merry Christmas and prosperous New Year.

Very Sincerely,

Barney Munger
