Tiny boy, lost in the park, kept safe during search for family This is dedicated with deep gratitude for the help given to the little lost boy and to all (especially elementary school personnel) who help young children in need of protection, food and clothing, every day. By Linda Waggener Ed and I crossed paths with one of our children and grandchildren at a little park for a brief after-school visit and delivery of a Halloween costume last week.
