Valentine\u2019s Day at Saliba\u2019s is much more than an annual romantic holiday. Since February 14, 1999, Saliba\u2019s president John Saliba has celebrated our pharmacy staff employees in a very special way \u2013 and this year was no exception.<\/p>\n

What began as a gesture of appreciation for three employees has grown into a huge occasion for all 220 Saliba\u2019s employees.<\/p>\n

Every Valentine\u2019s Day, each female employee receives a gorgeous bouquet of flowers and each male employee receives a two-pound box of See\u2019s Candy. These gifts are accompanied by a personal, handwritten note from John.<\/p>\n

John and his \u201chelpers\u201d come into the pharmacy very early in the morning to distribute the flowers and candy to all employees. The flowers\u2019 fragrance and colors fill the pharmacy to create a beautiful garden for the day.<\/p>\n

Employees routinely express their gratitude for John\u2019s generous nature and look forward to the special event every year. With ominous events of this past year still looming, this Valentine\u2019s Day helped brighten spirits tremendously.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
