Default "What Is Murray Doing On Your Christmas Tree?"

Since Murray retired from nursing home visits we started doing a reading program for kids. In Decmber, I took some pictures of Murray in and passed them out as Christmas cards to the readers- one of the girls said she was going to take the photo home and make a Murray Christmas Tree Ornament for their tree.

Well, last Saturday after the program, the girl's mother came up to me laughing- she said " We had out of state guests from Connecticut for Christmas. The couple walked in our front door and looked at our tree and the woman said " What's Murray doing on your Christmas tree?"!!!! The family was shocked that these people knew him!

It turns out that the woman was a former student of my husband here in Pa.- my husband always took Murray to class with him, and the former student recognized him right away- it really is a small world!
