“Motivating. Because I am training for my first half-marathon and just living a healthier lifestyle.” Kellie Wall
Justin Amick and William Stallworth
“Wellness. I started a workout program and I haven’t had a migraine since April. I was having them like three times a week. I’m healthier.” Emily Matthews
“Extraordinary. I feel like so many scientific discoveries, so many good things, have been discovered and uncovered this year. I’m just so positive about the future.” Carol Ann Wyndelts
“Exciting. I think it was exciting because I thought we were going to change our federal leadership. But it didn’t happen, so I guess you could say ‘disappointing.’ But I’m disappointed in the outcome, not the year.” Bobby Usher
“A good year. A great year. A terrific year in business. Being in business in Atlanta, Sandy Springs…. This area is a fantastic place to be.” Bill Snellings
“Divisive. Politically divisive. It was a pretty tough atmosphere, even among friends and family. It’s time to come together, I think.” Scott McAuliffe
“Busy. A lot of new opportunities, my sister getting married, busy at work, a lot of things going on in the country.” Taylor Johnson
“Great. Because I’ve had great things happen in my life. Great people, great things, great city.” Valerie Kassel
“Interesting.” Victoria Silvey
“Shocking. I gave birth to number seven and I was shocked at the outcome of the presidential election.” Anne Mattus
“Interesting. So many things have happened. We had the election and, most recently, this horrible thing with the children [in the Newtown, Conn., school shootings]. We’ve had tragedy. We’ve had positive things happen. It’s been an interesting year.” Michele Chartier
“It’s been a troubled year.… From an economic standpoint, it’s better. But from a political standpoint, it’s been unstable. Especially from any international standpoint, it’s been troubled.” Majed Awamleh
