We want to thank our patients, neighbors, friends, and even a few strangers to helping to make our first annual "Halloween Candy Buy Back" campaign a tremendous success. We shipped $150 pounds of candy to some very dedicated soldiers. Operation Gratitude will send most of the candy that we collected as part of their Care Packages. One special box will go to Jordan Johnson, a local Alpharetta young man stationed in Afghanistan. His brother is a dear friend of our son.
So, what does 150 pounds of candy look like? It fills 14 flat rate boxes. Those boxes stacked up were taller than Dr Johnson. They filled Debbie's car. Every bag delivered to our office was brought by someone wearing a huge smile. We had bags left by our office door, home door, and even in our home mailbox. Our entire family and staff really enjoyed the opportunity to see our community unite to share smiles with the men and women who are separated from their families and serving our country. We are so proud and excited to be able to share a smile or two from home. The moral of this story is that a small act of kindness like donating your candy can make many days brighter for so many.
150 pounds of candy looks like warm hearts and more smiles than we could measure! Thanks again!
Debbie and Brian Johnson
