Charitable work defines Maggie Kissner

Every stitch by thread guided through fabric at the hands of Maggie Kissner or yarn that the 82-year-old loops around a needle to form connecting stitches is done to create a keepsake for others.

“I just love helping other people,” said Kissner. She doesn’t know them and she will likely never meet them, yet she continues meticulously to create gifts for them. “I’m always for the underdog.”
