We the residents of Montgomery Mutual and the Leisure World of Maryland community, request the Montgomery Mutual Board of Directors rescind their order to remove the holiday season decorations located at 3308 Chiswick Court in the Canterbury Section of Montgomery Mutual.

This colorful joyous display is delightful and has warmed our hearts as well as those of our family, friends and especially our grandchildren. The display is especially comforting this year because of the significant loss and grief experienced by many of us; loss of freedom, loss of time with family, loss of income and job, and loss of loved ones, just to name a few.

Many of our beloved holiday traditions — like parties with friends and family gatherings — have been canceled because of COVID-19. Enjoying these delightful decorations on our walks alone and with family is one of the ways we safely and healthfully lift our spirits.
