Evan Dillon and Carter Freeman were among youth who enjoyed reminding Santa Claus about gifts they hope to find under their Christmas tree. The occasion for Santa’s visit was part of the festivities of the annual John “Wiz” Fabian Memorial Children’s Christmas party held Dec. 8 at the Mingo Knights of Columbus Council 4361 Hall and put on by Scott Fabian with assistance from knights Bill Della Penna, Don Temple, Keith Crispino and Shawn Zarych.
