Friends of a Melcher-Dallas woman who is ill are doing their best to bring a Merry first Christmas to her eight month old daughter this holiday season. They are gathering gifts for the little girl, and cash for the family. If you are interested in helping, and wish to donate clothes, the girl is in a size 18-24 months. For more information contact Steve Woods via email at stevew106@gmail.com. Santa Claus and his elves will be delivering the presents.
