– To the Bishop Darrell Cummings and all the staff and volunteers that turned out Saturday to make the Bethlehem Apostolic Temple’s Christmas giveaway a success. Your efforts are truly appreciated by all in the community.

– To Wheeling resident Paul Smith for his recent reappointment by Gov. Jim Justice to the West Virginia Commission for National and Community Service, also known as Volunteer West Virginia.

– To the family of the late B.E. Taylor for hosting the “Feel the Love: A Taylor Family Christmas” concert Sunday at Wheeling Park’s J.B. Chambers Performing Arts Center. The B.E. Taylor Christmas show became such an integral part of the holidays in Wheeling, and seeing the show return warms the heart.
