At our November Meeting....
It was suggested that honoring our seniors in nursing homes would be a good idea.
Along those lines Melinda has visited a home in Vivian, La. (Just down the road)
and our project met with great interst. (inserting Melinda's emil)
Hey!!!
Just spoke to Tina Graham at the nursing home in Vivian. She was very very delighted.
They currently have 65 residents. She assured me that any and all we could do would be most appreciated. Most are euphemistically termed under privileged….
Many don’t have visitors for months on end….
I gave her all the contact information. I will be meeting with her on my lunch break within the next week. She agreed that 36 x by is perfect.
