In the spirit of the Christmas season, one Pontiac resident sought to bring together those who may go without a traditional holiday gathering on Sunday.
Organized by Leona Lalonde, the second Christmas Cheer party at the Shawville R.A. Hall brought a little something bright to the community, complete with a turkey dinner, the trimmings, music and singing.
“Last year, I started this as a way to do something for someone who might not have a Christmas gathering to go to,” said Lalonde.
