Since beginning his partnership with Jonathan Syzmoor in 1831, Nicholas has sought people who demonstrated a passion for others by sharing their hearts, time, and talents. He needed men and women who would help him share the True Magic of Christmas in Every Day. In 1932 Maxwell Kartar, the sixth Woodsman of Saint Nicholas, served only one day, yet his wife, Edith, continued to serve on her own as the seventh in this proud lineage. Merging Max's passions into her own and later adopting those of Nicholas, she became a formidable force within her community. Jimmy Norfleet, the eighth Woodsman, lost his wife at an early age, yet their passion took root within their daughter. Bethany succeeded her father, becoming Nicholas' ninth partner in service to Christmas. Filled with troubles and successes, love and loss, sunshine and rain, their stories are uncommon. Their passion for each day helped them rise above misfortunes, lifting others as well. You could find your own story within theirs. These are the stories of four of Santa's Woodsmen, quiet service in response to the year-round requests of Saint Nicholas.
