Greetings all from the geeklabs....

This isnt really any rumors or insider park news. But I felt it was important enough to be called NEWS.

With the current US/IRAQ sitituation (mind you everyone has an opinion of what should be done) Some good news finally for a change

Disney's Animal Kingdom Resort Area Cast Members recently partnered to make a magical reunion for Housekeeping Cast Member Cassie Lee Davis and her son Cortez Watson on the day he returned from the war in Iraq.

Cast Members waited secretly with Cortez in the Disney's All-Star Resort Cast Services Building, anticipating the surprise reunion.

Cast Members told Cassie that a Guest had dropped off a special present for her, and that she needed to pick it up in the Cast Services Building immediately. When she entered the room filled with Cast Members, Consuelo Gomez, Executive Housekeeper for Disney's All-Star Sports Resort, announced, "Everyday is a magical day at Walt Disney World, but today is an extra special magical day for Cassie Lee Davis."

Cortez, still in uniform and carrying a bouquet of flowers for his mother, entered the room and created a very special moment, not only for his mother, but also for all of the Cast Members who were able to help make the magical reunion a reality.

So many families have been affected by the current situation of the world...its nice to see some happiness being brought back to one family's life. This kinda puts things in perspective for me...the picture is worth a thousand words, as I'm sure, no words could express a mother's realization that her son is safe from harm and in her arms again....

Thanks for posting this orlpassholder!!
