Tonight we attended the Whatcom Family and Community Network Awards Dinner.
Swil Kanim was the recipient of the Community Building Award for outstanding contributions to increasing community caring, empowerment and connections that improve the lives of children, youth and families. Boy that is a mouthful!
It was a wonderful evening and dinner. We invited Leroy and Ann Carlson to come along with us and it was good to share the evening and dinner with them. There were many individuals and groups that were presented with awards for their contributions and commitments to community. Gene Tagaban was also a recipient for his work at community events linking people together through heart and spirit. Unfortunately he was out of town and unable to attend. Swil Kanim was asked to perform and close out the event. He blessed us all with his beautiful words and a beautiful new song. He spoke from the heart as he always does and I was touched by his words and his new song. I am so happy for the acknowledgement and accolades he is receiving these past few months. He is such a wonderful man with a beautiful spirit, a blessing to many and a heart of gold.
Congratulations and Many Blessings to you, my dear sweet Husband and friend!
