On Dec. 14, the John J. Morris Post 62 (Peoria Ariz.) Legion Riders delivered toys to eight needy families. Eight hours of smiles followed the procession of 20 motorcycles. Members nominated needy families they knew, and the process was on. Santa Claus and the Grinch led the motorcade. Even when on the road, cars were honking and kids waving when Santa went by. The children at the stops were excited to see Santa and get presents. Some families had tears in their eyes seeing their children get gifts that would not have been possible otherwise. A salute to the Riders for their dedication to community and youth. Honestly, though, I am not sure Santa (as is his character) didn't have the most fun of everyone today. Tomorrow is six more families getting their holiday wishes granted.
