The Newtown High School cafeteria was turned into a confectionary gathering spot on Valentine’s Day. Vikki Grodner, founder of Life is Precious, traveled from Alabama to help deliver thousands of cupcakes to Newtown’s first responders, the immediate families of those who lost loved ones on 12/14, and the children of Sandy Hook School. The offering was Mrs Grodner’s way of “giving the community communal hugs,” she said. Cupcakes from five bakeries, a few hundred cupcakes from Walmart and Sam’s Club, and cookies from DOrazio Sisters were all set out for a few hours. Walmart also provided arts and crafts supplies for the youngest visitors, encouraging them to create valentines or whatever their heart desired. “People were so taken with the fact that we did this,” said Mrs Grodner, shown here with Deputy Land Use Director Rob Sibley. “It was a huge success,” Mrs Grodner said the following morning. Mr Sibley, who is also an engineer with Sandy Hook Volunteer Fire & Rescue, was one of the town employees who helped organize the event. (Hicks photo)
