Whenever I see Vikas working at 7-Eleven on B Street he makes me smile. He loves quoting Gazette articles at me and is always showing with people he works with and in our community the different articles, and happenings in our little town.
Vikas always has a smile, is quick witted, and fun to talk to. When he has noticed that I have been sad has asked me what is wrong--a kind and caring individual. We have even shared how to say things in several different languages. He is a great resource of knowledge that sometimes I lean on.

Don’t tell anyone but as an ice critic, and having the bad habit of chewing on ice, this 7-Eleven beats out all the rest! I really need to invest in an ice machine. But for now, I’ll continue to purchase ice there, where I have a smiling face with our lovely Fillmore Gazette ready for the read!

Thank you for being a bright spot, Vikas!!!
