It has been forever since I wrote on this site. I have forgotten how to do this. But what I have not fogotten is how much I appreciate our volunteers with Meals on Wheels.
One such volunteeer got me to thinking about how much I really do appreciate everyone of you.
Jennifer Martinez had been volunteering with Meals on Wheels for about a year and a half now. She does this during her work day. Her company Five Star Concrete out of Uhland Texas, graciously allows her an hour and half for her lunch and she uses that time once a month to serve meals to the seniors of Kyle. I want to give a big thank you to her and Five Star Concrete to their service in the community.
Other volunteer Maggie Gillespie and Amy Almeida also give up their lunch time to carry meals to Kyle residents.
I have other volunteers like David and Sarah Lyle who have been serving for awhile now and do it every single week. And Polly Summers who pitches in whenever called upon.
An extra big thank for so many of our other volunteers who have been with the Meals on Wheels program for three, four or more years like, Joan and Tom Searcy, Jane Kirkham, Janette Hall, Janie Vasquez, Doris Breslar, Celeste Plunkett, Fred and Sharon Rothert, Maribel Espinosa, Sandra Green, Marisa Ferro. Thank you for your dependability and dedication.
We have several mom's with kiddos who help out each month, like Kerri Summers, Jan Sills, Tami Larsen, Tahrea Smith, Chantel Russell, Ann Smith and others who make this a family outing with their gift of giving.
Want to welcome new volunteers Scott Haberbosch, Mary Fleming, Cheryl and Larry Jones who have already started out with a bang and helping almost once a week.
It may seem like we have alot of volunteers but we cover two routes, Monday thru Friday. So we need two people each day. Some can oonly volunteer once a week but as I have mentioned several do so much more.
Wether you can give one day a month or one day a week we need help!!! Just this summer we have lost five volunteers who had been with us for along time. As with any volunteer program people move, or get jobs or time restraints prohibt them from volunteering. I am hoping that you may have at least one day that you can offer to your community and it's seniors.
If so just contact me, Shelley Pulliam 405-3922.
Thank you!!!!!
