Thank Yous!

Dear friends, I thank you sincerely for all your encouragement, prayers, and support during my recent surgery. Thank you for the many meals lovingly prepared and delivered. I’m forever grateful. Love, Shirley (Brown)

The Trustee Board thanks everyone who jumped into action last Sunday morning to help with the clean-up and repair of the burst kitchen pipe. Special thanks to Barry Francis for his quick response with the shop vac and Dan Haney for his expertise in plumbing. It is truly appreciated.
