Christmas Spirit Comes In Variety Of Forms
Christmas 1964 arrives in many forms as the Associated Press notes acts of generosity and resilience. A 5S year-old Philadelphia boy gives up his stuffed poodle for a charity collection, then insists on some humor with a goodbye. In New Orleans a retiree in ragged Santa suit spreads joy to children after a lifetime of hardship. In Hamtramck a family nearly loses Christmas when trash men retrieve a hidden shoe containing savings for their holiday, prompting thanks to the workers. A Philadelphia girl leaves a hospital to be with family, cherishing home over gifts. In Utica a blind woman gains sight via new glasses, planning to help others. Each person reflects Christmas spirit through sacrifice, kindness, or perseverance.
