A love letter to Winchester

278

Dear Editor,

A love letter to Winchester:

A year ago I moved to Winchester and started working cash at Foodland. It has been an amazing year and I want to thank every one of you.

All my life, I wanted to live in a small town. It was a dream that I didn’t think was possible but then I fell in love with someone from Winchester and here I am. Even though some say outsiders will never fit in, I have never felt anything but welcome. I love seeing all of you every day at the store. Sharing your lives, the joys and the sorrows. I love knowing my neighbours will help out when we need them (and they have!). 

I love coming home from Kemptville or Ottawa and seeing the town appear and I know I am home.

Thank you for letting me come home.

Katy Devlin
