Last week I posted a question on Facebook simply asking others who matters to them and if they were me, who would they want to write about? This col - umn is made up of some of those answers. Not all could be posted due to lim- ited column space. The first person to an- swer my call out was Holly Beaven. She enthusiasti- cally wants Lynda Max- well to know that she mat- ters because "she advo- cates for those who need it so badly...the homeless the elderly. Shes always so kind and positive." Julie Curl and Bar - bara Fullem want every- one to know that "Thelma "TJ" Cunningham mat- ters. TJ matters to all that know her. I have been best friends with her since 1st grade (a looooooong time), she has had so many health issues and it truly is a miracle that she is still with us. No mat - ter how much pain she is in, if you ask for anything she is there. My friend Barb always calls her "my Thelma" but all who know her thinks of her that way. She has been a rock, care giver, tissue handing, des - ignated passenger, leader, Halloween tuu tuu, laugh- ing and crying best bud for everyone for so long, she mat- ters! Plus, she was the decora- tor for the Class of 82's 30 year re- union which was amazing." Angela Lyon wants the world to know that "Ruth Ann Merkle matters! We have been friends since Kinder - garten but went our sepa- rate ways after school. RA has a special talent and an eye for photography. She created her own photog - raphy business and shares her talent with her friends and love ones. She even captured special moments from my 40th Birthday and made it extra special! The most recent reason why is because I reached out to her for help. You see, a high school boy I know has been through so much the last few years and I learned that he and his fa - ther couldn't take senior portraits. The money just wasn't there. This family has a special place in my heart and I can't imagine going through life's chal - lenges that have been dealt to them. I wasn't comfort- able telling his story out of respect for privacy but it wasn't even necessary. Ruth Anne said, "give me his number and say no more!" Tears rolled down my face and I had the plea- sure of sharing the news with this father and son. She has the kindest heart and I'm grateful to call her a friend." Mike and Shauna Chrasta want us all to know that "Brendan Mc- Caughey is my choice for who matters. His bat- tle with cancer is huge. I know many are battling, but we have been with him through a lot these last many years. Leighanne has been amazing too. We need him to know how much he matters to every - one." Finally, Rhonda Searcy wants to give a shout out that "Lisa Hansen is the brawn behind the annual Round Up Pancake Break - fast and she's devoted her time and heart to send- ing 100 kids to Kiwanis Camp every year for the past 17 years. She's been one of the best chamber presidents - was the driv - ing force behind the in- crease in local business promotion. I could go on all day about this incredi- ble woman." It is heartwarming when we let others know they matter. It is impor - tant to speak the words and to share the love. Ev- eryone matters, but it sure is fun to spotlight specific people from time to time.
