I too was raised in Windber and have since lived in or visited many different countries and all of the states. To this day we stay in touch with friends living in Japan, England, Morocco, Spain, Germany and Hong Kong. The golden thread that guides many of our lives is the community that tolerated us during our formalulative years. This is tied to dedication of educators, pastors, neighbors and friends. Negativity toward your home town while you are still living there is much like shoveling the driveway before is has stopped snowing. If one is unhappy,the opportunity exists to find your niche in the world, crawl inside and pull the veneer over your very being. There are those in Windber who have broken my heart, but that is their problem and it will not color my appreciation for thos Saints who guided me along the way.
