I’m Thankful For...

We recently asked our readers to share what they’re most thankful for this year, whether it’s a reliable friend, new job, favorite food, or bingeable TV show — and boy did you deliver! In honor of Thanksgiving and the impending holiday season, we wanted to highlight the special people, places, and things that fill our readers’ hearts with joy. And on a personal note, we wanted to take this time to say a big thank you to all our readers and advertisers who make Suwanee Magazine possible. We couldn’t do it without you, and we are so grateful for each one of you.

“Everyone says I ‛lucked out’ when I married Rick. I am here to officially say that is 100% true. From nursing me back to health after a car wreck, to joining me and supporting me in all of my work and continuing education, Rick is the foundation I can build my future on. He is my biggest cheerleader, co-captain of our household, and co-parent to our two rescues. I am most thankful for my husband. Today and every day.” — Jessica Rantamaki, Suwanee

I’m thankful for the Suwanee Farmers Market. I can come after a solo run on the Greenway or with my family. Lots of feel-good vibes and small-town feels. You never know what to expect. You might be able to hold a goat or run into an influential Atlantan!”

“I am thankful for my daughter who fills my life with happiness and love. She’s just given us the most precious gift, our first and probably only grand baby. Our family is so blessed. Thank you, Kristen Russell, for always being there for your dad and I.” — Carol Russell, Suwanee

— Tara Varnadore, Dacula

“I’m thankful for my friends Alex and Joy. I moved to Georgia last February 2022 with only two suitcases, $100, not knowing how to drive, and a hope that I'll find a job soon enough. They were very supportive in helping me get back on my feet and I'll be forever grateful for all that they've done for me!” — Kristel Silang, Sandy Springs

“I am thankful for all the loved ones in my life for 73 years. Also, the new loves are such a gift.” — Karen Mitchell 50
