“The holiday season is truly a time for joy and celebration. It is a wonderful time to look back with gratitude, giving thanks for our blessings, and to look forward with hopefulness and enthusiasm. It is an appropriate time for reflection on the events of the past year – rejuvenated by successes and gaining knowledge from our experiences.
We pause with thoughts of others less fortunate, understanding how this festive season may be difficult for many to embrace, and offer our heartfelt prayers. Let us remember it is not in the material gifts we give and receive that measure the true meaning of Christmas, but those in our minds and hearts. Let us commit to dedicating ourselves to our family, our work and our community in the New Year.
I wholeheartedly extend my best wishes to all of you this Christmas and in 2015!”
– Mayor Mike Cooper, City of Covington
