In my recent holiday blog entry, I told you how much I look forward to celebrating our wonderful MacroAir employees at our annual Christmas party.  I feel truly blessed to have such a wonderful group of people working for MacroAir.  And, not that I needed it, but I recently received affirmation that these wonderful people are more than just great employees…they truly are exceptional and giving people.  Allow me to share with you a thank you that I received from Karen Cassidy, MacroAir Purchasing Manager:

Generous MacroAir Employees,
I want to take this opportunity to thank my fellow MacroAir employees for donating to the food drive sponsored by my Sunday school class.  The children, who range in ages from 5-12, gathered food for a local junior high school when they found out that the students would not have much to eat over Christmas break.  At this particular school, the majority of the children attending receive meals through the free breakfast and lunch program sponsored by the state.  We found out that for most of the children, the free meals they receive at school is all of the food they get in a given day.  Always willing to help and lend a hand, I left a huge red bucket in the break room at work and in no time at all it was filled with food!  I was so proud and humbled by the generosity of my fellow employees.  Thank you so much for your love and support!  Merry Christmas to All!

So with that heartwarming example, and with a smile on my face and a heart filled with pride, it is my pleasure to say: See…I told you so! 

Merry Christmas!
Eddie

It’s officially the first day of winter as I write this and Christmas is only a few days away!  I’m not entirely sure where the month of December has gone, but the MacroAir offices are buzzing with holiday preparations.  I’m sure you can relate, as most everyone finds themselves in a flurry of activity, making some sort of last minute Christmas provisions this time of year.

I’m very much looking forward to our company Christmas party on Wednesday.  Sheila Link, one of our many multi-talented employees, is lending her exceptional cooking skills and will be catering our party.  My mouth is already watering just imagining what tasty treats she will be providing.  We’ve also planned some surprises and there will be plenty of games and merriment.

And all of that will be fun (and I’m sure rather tasty!) but by far, I am most looking forward to the chance to honor and celebrate our wonderful employees.  We at MacroAir are truly blessed to have such exceptional people associated with this company!  So, on Wednesday, I will relish the chance to thank my employees, hand out bonuses, and present awards celebrating those who have been with us for five years or longer.

Christmas has always been a special holiday for me…a holiday in which I celebrate my Savior’s birth and a holiday in which I can take the time to enjoy my family.  So as we all are making our last-minute preparations, allow me to wish my MacroAir family a very blessed holiday season!

Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas,
Eddie
