es and Jason Stoner. From left, back row: Audrey Heistand, Pam Lehman, Patty
Esbenshade and Rosene Ebersole.
Thanksgiving Day is extra special to Mary Beth and Rose Ann
Carman. The two girls recently moved from their Lititz dairy farm
to East Petersburg. Their dog, Tuffy, missed his old home so he ran
back to the Lititz farm.
When the family discovered Tuffy was missing, they returned to
their former home and found Tuffy in his favorite spot. The family
loaded Tuffy in their pick-up truck and brought him back to his new
home.
“He walked seven miles by himself,” Mary Beth said. “I’m
thankful Tuffy made it and wasn’t killed.”

The first Thanksgiving the Pilgrims and Indians ate together stirs
awe within many of us even though it is hundreds of years later.
Jonathan Patches from Manheim was thinking about Thanksgiv
ing this week. He said, “I wish I had lived when the Pilgrims were
alive. They had more space and a lot more excitement—especially
when they went hunting.”
Jonathan lives on a dairy farm with his parents Joanne and
Luther. He said he’s is most thankful for God and a place to live.
When Audrey Heistand of Elizabethtown thinks of Thanksgiv
ing, she thinks of having aunts, uncles and cousins for dinner. The
daughter of Ira and Linda, Audrey lives on a dairy farm and is most
thankful for God and family.
“When I think of Thanksgiving,” Patty Esbenshade of Manheim
said, “I think of forgiving and thankfulness.” Patty lives with her
parents, Glen and Rachel, on a chicken farm.
Jason Stoner agrees with Audrey that Thanksgiving Day means a
day of getting together. He lives with his parents on a Lititz farm.
While Pam Lehman is thankful for her parents and her animals
everyday, she said, “I think I’m more thankful on Thanksgiving
Day because that’s when I think about being thankful.”
She said, “I think we should always have a special day to give,
thanks so we don’t forget.” . •
