Each year, Randy Pate decorates the lobby of Willow Tree Apartments with holiday decorations.

Randy Pate of Hurricane has been quite busy decorating for Christmas at Willow Tree Village Apartments, literally decking the halls with boughs of (artificial) greenery. Pate, who is a resident at the apartment complex, enjoys adorning the first floor lobby, mail room, front porch, and exterior grounds with seasonal décor. Some of his decorations are homemade – his Christmas display in the lobby this year features towering stacks of presents which he created from cardboard boxes wrapped in wrapping paper. Other decorations include a dancing Santa statue and figurines of pinguins, elves, bears, moose, and snowmen. Outside, Pate has set up various Christmas inflatables around the first-floor windows.
