Roy’s Gift: Part 2

They loaned him a cart so he didn't have to make so many trips.

Roy returned to LA and bought even more toys.  He really got into doing this.  Then we delivered the toys to the Salvation Army.

Roy's gifts were accepted on behalf of the children by Major Ebel.

Now here’s a photo of me with Roy’s second haul.

So many toys, so many kids needing Christmas gifts.

Again, Roy bought in bulk.  Most were in packages of a dozen toys.  I think he would have liked to keep a bow and arrow set for himself.  The arrows had rubber suction cups on the end.

  3. The total number of toys was 170 toys, but that includes coloring books and crayons. Roy says it was the most fun he’s had at Christmas for forever.
