Anna
Among the blessings that have accompanied my
2011 hemorrhagic stroke are the many individuals who have showered me with prayers,
assistance, encouragement, therapeutic exercise, conversation and laughter.
Anna is one of those blessings. She is day manager
at Coffee Fusion, a regular stop several times a week for Husband Walter and me.
Her welcoming approach includes both newcomers
and regulars. Along with other aging regulars, Hubby and I enjoy her gracious
service infused with a mix of good-natured teasing and an awareness of and
concern for our individual challenges.
Hats off to Anna!

I really like knowing people I don't know but see on a regular basis. she looks so sweet and kind. i love the greeter at Walmart, he is about 6'5'' and looks like Santa Claus, is the Sat/Sunday 6 am greeter and has been for years. he plays Santa at Christmas, i feel like he is a friend.
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love people like that?
ReplyDeleteA smile and caring can really perk us up.
We used to have a restaurant that seemed to treat everyone like family.
I do miss them since we moved .
Glad to see you posting again.
God bless your "coffee shop therapist". She's obviously one of the "angels among us".
