Dear Brother and Sisters in Christ at the 1st
United Methodist Church. Wow! You guys
really outdid yourselves! 35 pans of chicken spa-
ghetti, 27 qts of chicken noodle soup, 17 qts of
beef vegetable soup, rolls and lots of paper
products and plates. You have honored us here
at the Home Away From Home with all your
efforts and gifts. And you have honored the
memory of Keith Patterson so well. His kind
spirit and love for the Lord was evident to all
who met him. Thank you for blessing us with
your generous gifts. Many will be blessed
because of your efforts! In Him,
Kim Burket and Krissi Fay H.A. F.H.
Special thank you to Debbie Bowlin for the new
aprons for the kitchen.
