Teresa Crain ("T")
Our friend and staff member, Teresa Crain, has been ill since early August. It looks like Teresa's illness,which is heart related, will be ongoing for a while. We would like to create a team of people who would be available to assist Teresa in getting to doctor's appointments, doing grocery store runs, or dropping by occasionally to encourage her. We have applied for transportation through METRO Lift, which will be very helpful, but it could be another month before that approval goes through. If you would like to be part of this team, please contact  Donna.
