In the evening Alice sat on her grandfather’s knee and listened to his stories of faraway places.
When he had finished, Alice would say, “When I grow up, I too will go to faraway places, and when I grow old, I too will live beside the sea.”
“That is all very well, little Alice,” said her grandfather, “but there is a third thing you must do.”
“What is that?” asked Alice.
“You must do something to make the world more beautiful,” said her grandfather.

Mrs. K and Mrs. Mac
Two who made the world more beautiful
We miss you today and always
Kathy and Kate were two of the most loving, caring individuals I have ever had the pleasure of spending time with. Their enthusiasim and funfilled spirits infected all around them. They touched many lives…and in every case made those lives a little bit better….I miss them so much especially at Halloween…their amazing antics spread fun and excitement throughout the entire library!
