Top Secret: Operation Santa Boone is Back!

Santa and his elves will surprise a Fair Lawn family in need again this year.

When Liz Twiggs learned last year that one her Fair Lawn Food Pantry clients couldn't afford a Christmas tree, she sprung into action and -- with the help of Fair Lawn police detective and Van Riper Ellis Broadway Baptist Church pastor David Boone -- launched, "Operation Santa Boone."

Twiggs, Boone and a couple kindly elves delivered a pre-lit tree, a wreath, two shopping cartloads of food, some small gifts and an additional top secret Christmas gift for her client and client's family during a surprise night time run that was aided by members of the Fair Lawn Rescue Squad.

Patch has uncovered a top secret, heavily redacted memo that indicates Santa and his Elves are planning an "Operation Santa Boone" sequel.
