This has been a very busy and unusual year for me and I can't believe how swiftly the time has passed. It seems like it was just last year that I was putting up the tree and final trimmings around the house. Sometimes life is unpredictable and presents us challenges. It's how we meet those challenges and work to break through and push forward that truly shows the spirit within us.

I hope each of you have been as blessed as I have with my faith, family, friends and my customers. I certainly could not have done it alone.

I'm very grateful for my customers' friendship and trust they have placed in me over the years. I look forward to the coming year with hope and faith that 2012 will prove to be a great recovery year for all of us.

I wish you blessings of love and peace and I look forward to helping you with your Avon purchases. I'm available for one-on-one skin care consultations, make-overs, spa parties and special events. Just call or email me.

Best wishes for a successful 2012!

Phyllis Burkhart,

Independent Sales Representative
