I wish that Nicole Reynolds, a 22-year-old college student from Dayton, is able to find a donor soon to receive a liver and pancreas transplants so she can live without pain. I’m also wishing for the continued good health of Trygve ‘Trig” Lund of Saco, 95, a proud military veteran who took an Honor Flight last spring to Washington, D.C. to tour the World War II Memorial.
Lastly, I wish everyone could go through life with the optimism and upbeat attitude shown by Ashley Gray of Biddeford, 27, who was born with crippling cerbral palsy yet has overcome its challenges to host her own program on Biddeford Public Access Television and serve as an inspiration to many with disabilities. Merry Christmas to everyone! — Ed Pierce
