NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- My wife, Serafina, and I want to wish all of you and your loved ones a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year as we take in the last of the 2012 holidays and usher in 2013.
As we continue our own family celebration well into Christmas night, we hope that you'll enjoy our coverage of the recent Christmas parades in New Smyrna Beach, Edgewater and Daytona Beach, including our videos featuring the Beu Sisters at the Ocean Center and our exclusive Christmas interview with Daytona Beach Mayor Derrick Henry and his wife, Dr. Stephanie Henry, from their home in Daytona Beach.
We're also counting down the Top 10 Florida stories, along with our continuing countdown of the Top 100 stories in Volusia County in 2012, with No. 1 to be unveiled on New Year's Eve.
God bless everyone and do what you can to help the less fortunate among us.
