"I'm thankful for love, health, happiness, friends, family, financial stability, having a career I love, living in an amazing part of the world, being able to travel, really good food, positive people, the combination of chocolate and peanut butter, and my dog." —Editor Deanne Goodman

"I am more thankful than ever for all the people with whom I'm traveling through life—friends, siblings, my son and his family, and my partner and soulmate. They each bring me so much happiness and fill me with gratitude. I'm often humbled by their talents and kindness, and hope they know how deeply they are loved. Each and every one of them." —Community Editor Christine Huard

"I'm thankful to be living in a creative, tolerant community that is on the cutting edge in so many ways. When I think about scientific research at UCSD and the Salk Institute, breakthrough technology from Qualcomm and ViaSat, or the latest craft brew from North Park, I'm thankful to be living in San Diego." —Associate Editorial Director Chris Jennewein

"Community and family. I'm not much of anything without the two." —Editor Khari Johnson 

"I'm thankful for good health, great friends and an amazing family. And I am always thankful for the beach, the San Diego sunshine and FaceTime with family when I can't make it back East for in-person hugs and kisses." —Editor Michelle Mowad 

"I am thankful every time my cats come back home after being outside, that the painting on the wall hangs straight though I didn't use a level, to have family support, that the roses in the garden continue to bloom when I forget to fertilize them, to live in a Patch community, not to have to bundle up for a stroll in the winter, caffeine, a wife that keeps me well fed, and readers interested in what's happening in their community." —Editor Steven Bartholow
