McNally Robinson is back on its feet and we have been helped up by you, our
readers.
Thank you for your flowers, cards, letters, emails of encouragement and
goodwill.
Thank you for coming into our stores this past week in record
numbers.
It was an overwhelming groundswell of support which made a
difficult time endurable.
So thank you Winnipeg. Thank you Saskatoon. You have always been the most
generous and supportive of communities. Thank goodness we are part of you
and you are part of us.
