To My Dear Fellow Community Members:
I am thinking about Our Community donating to the Hurricane recovery $2000. We can afford the donation and the board has approved of the move. What do you think?
We are in the process of selecting a trustworthy partner and one where the executives are not receiving inflated salaries. At the moment we are considering smaller, more local groups like The Houston Mayor's special recovery fund just set up and the Houston Food Bank
We can talk about this Sunday or you may text me or Rosemary, or send an email.
We spend the first twelve months of our children's lives teaching them to walk and talk and the next twelve years telling them to sit down and shut up.
-Phyllis Diller
Not again, no cupcake!
See you Sunday.

Please remember Peter McGinn, 61, Rosemary's brother, who died Monday morning in Boston. Amyloidosis was the cause and could not be brought under control. This Monday morning we will attend a family memorial near Binghamton, NY. A month from now a large, public memorial is being planned. J.S.
From Marianne Elwell concerning the cruise next summer:
Re the cruise – if someone is interested in the cruise, or even think they might be interested, they only have to put a deposit of $25.00 per person by 8/26. They can always cancel (up to a certain point and I will find out what the latest cancel date is), but we need at least 8 cabins booked by then or we lose the group status.
True?Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile.
