Voices: Cherished memories



As someone who spent many summers at the Community of Christ campgrounds which were devastated by the tornado, I would like to thank you for the wonderful article about these campgrounds. My experiences there are some of my most cherished memories.

I pray that they will be rebuilt soon, so many other folks can have the wonderful experiences there that I remember.

Thanks again for such a positive article at this sad time.

Sally Walton

Walkersville, Md. (former Webb City resident)
