FAREWELL FROM THE PUBLISHER

Putting together this publication enriched my life…I loved how the stories found me. We have had so many wonderful things to cover over the years. When I started Families First Monthly it was intended to be a resource for parents and families. I also knew there would be stories that could appeal to those who were not parents as well. I am pleased to have created something, (with the help of some creative people) that has been a part of the greater Grand Traverse Area since May of 2000.

THANK YOU to all the contributors – Designers, writers, advertisers, and our readers. This publication would not have happened without you.

I look forward to spending more time with my grandchildren.

Please keep your family first.
