2013 Letter Carriers Food Drive
This year’s food drive was a great success. The food received from this drive will help us continue to serve the needy for months to come. The letter carriers that gave so generously of their time, and the residents who donated food items are to be applauded for their generosity.
Additionally to be noted are the men & women who gave up a Saturday afternoon to bring in all of the food to be sorted & boxed for future use.
Thank you,
Rick & Nancy Tarulis
Bob & Jimmy Klaeren
