To the Editor:

The restaurants of Newtown are largely small family operations owned by fellow Newtowners. Those that have remained open are clearly struggling with take-out only operations. I would encourage everyone to go to their favorite local eatery and purchase a gift certificate — for as much as you can afford.

We’re all in this together.
