Sometimes there are periods when we fail to acknowledge those who make wonderful gifts to our area. I’m thinking of Doug and Kay Ivester. Not only did they make a sizeable gift to the Atlanta Botanical Gardens, Gainesville when it was being built, but they gave the amphitheater where performances of national reputation are already being held.
