Dear Editor,<\/p>\n

To the Mililani Town community and to ALL who have supported us while we were doing “Photos with Santa” at the Town Center of Mililani – we just want to say thank you.<\/p>\n

Since changes were made within the center last winter, we were no longer there to do what we so loved doing: making you smile. Those of you who have come to see us every year for the five years that we were there, we truly miss you.<\/p>\n

If there was a way that we could thank you all personally, we would. We had a lot of fun being your Santa, and we hope that we have done what we set out to do (make you smile).<\/p>\n

Wishing all of you the happiest of new years.<\/p>\n

You can contact us at swanniepack@hotmail.com or on Facebook under Blue*Swan Designs.<\/p>\n

Swannie Pack (Mrs. Claus)<\/p>\n
