The staff and residents of Exceptional Living Center of Brazil would like to take a few moments to express our gratitude for the countless hours donated by our wonderful volunteers.

We have been blessed by many volunteers and gifts, including Christmas Carolers from area churches, organizations and schools; gifts given to our residents from different organizations, including handmade ornaments, lotions, body washes, stationary, puzzle books and blankets; crafts and decorating cookies with home school groups; piano music provided by Chester and Janice; and Pet Therapy with Bella as well as the Clay County Humane Society.

Thank you to our area businesses, including Papa John's, Maurizios, Little Caesars, McDonald's, Hardee's and Pizza Hut for their generous donations.

Thank you to the Terre Haute Air Guard and Vista Care for our Veteran's Day services. Mike and Clay City V.F.W. Men's Auxiliary for donating our new flag and sweat suits for our veterans.

A special thanks to the Dollar General for the beautiful tree and decorations and to everyone who made wonderful cards throughout the year for our residents.
