Frankfort Says 'Thank You': 30 Days Of Gratitude

FRANKFORT, IL — This November, Patch is celebrating "30 Days of Gratitude," stories about living with gratitude — in simple terms, a deliberate choice to see the goodness and joy in your life and to wish the same for your neighbors.

Living with gratitude is a matter of continually counting one's blessings while at the same time recognizing that the source of goodness in one's life is other people.

Earlier this month, we asked people in Illinois to share who or what they were grateful for. Here's what your neighbors in Frankfort had to say.

Members of Frankfort Branch: thank you for time and energy spent helping a new neighbor move in!

Prior to living in Manteno we lived in Frankfort for many many years. We are so thankful for Philips Chevrolet where we have purchased numerous cars over 2 decades.
