Thank you for joining me today as I begin this website. The site is dedicated to a spirit of love toward family, friends, and this bountiful great lake state.

I hope your Thanksgiving has gone well. There is much to be thankful for and to list all of our thoughts on the subject would be quite a task. We would just like to say Thank you for everything that has happened in our lives the past year, whether it be lessons learned or blessing bestowed. Praise God.

At this time of year I also become anxious with feelings of concern for those less fortunate or those who are expeiencing loss. Loss of the presense of a loved no matter what the circumstances. I know it is tough! We at the Stutesman household are going through that at this very moment. We miss the presence of certain family members through unforseen circumstances and pray for comfort and guidance. We place our trust in God and his assurance of sunnier days. We wish for you with all our might to receive the blessing of that same assurance.

Don't you just love the holidays when there is a feeling of goodwill prevading everywhere you go?

A walk downtown...a stroll through the stores (even without purchasing anything) can lighten the spirits!

Well....there's a knock at the door. Who could it be? I have an idea it might be time for family and friends! God bless and Happy Thanksgiving. :-)
