Happy Faces Reign At Ripley County Toys 4 Tots Giveaway

Ripley County Toys 4 Tots once again accomplished its mission Saturday, Dec. 18, of giving local kids a good Christmas. It's been more than 40 years since it all began when three bicycles were delivered by Shakey Lynxwiler to some deserving young boys at their home outside of Doniphan. This year's event was held at St. Benedict Church's parish hall with dozens of volunteers helping the kids make their choices. Special guest was Santa Claus, who was happy to pose next to the tree for pictures. Congratulations gang on a good well done.
