Want to make you aware of some of our friends that can’t leave their homes, not only because of this COVID-19, but illness and other reasons. I had a very dear friend call me the other day and she no longer can leave her home and her daughter is taking care of all her needs. I miss seeing her in church and am so glad to hear from Lillian Willhelm. She reads our article every week and is doing just what the governor and her doctor told her to do. If you have someone that can’t get out please give them a call and just talk and see how they are doing. No visit at this time, just a caring and friendly phone call to let them know they are missed and thought about. This is a time that some need a little attention and friendly chatter!
