For most of his early adult life, a holiday season highlight for Bruce Stauffer was getting together with his family on Christmas Eve in Sabina and singing songs and playing instruments.
“Once my parents passed away Christmas became a downer,” the Leesburg resident said. “But playing Santa Claus brought back the realization that it’s just not about me. It’s about doing things for others and by doing that, it made my sad time become one of the happier times, and from then on it’s been a blast.”
