To The Editor

To the Editor,

I’ve spent a few hours in the Swarthmore Co-op in the past couple of weeks as we all come to terms with the pandemic. They’ve seen the personal shopping numbers go from 30 orders a day to 130 and more. I’d like to express my respect and gratitude to the Co-op staff and manager Mike Litka, whose dedication and care for their customers and community are extraordinary. No other local market provides the consistently high level of service, the judicious safety measures, and positive spirit I see at the Co-op. The numerous volunteers, from teenagers to retirees, are also an inspiration.

Sincerely,

Persephone Braham
Swarthmore
