Since all of the helpers are aging (most are in their 80s), now cold cuts, breads, chips, salads, and desserts are served. The families appreciate the sandwiches, but it would be nice to serve a hot meal.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18296050573667055406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4795926538814429903.post-72454189665266145752009-08-21T05:22:18.355-05:002009-08-21T05:22:18.355-05:00As a child, the different Sunday School Dept.'...As a child, the different Sunday School Dept.'s would provide lunch for the family after a funeral. These days, I guess more people work outside the home, and our church does not do this any longer. I know the families' you provide this for greatly appreciate it. Bless you and your helpers for being so compassionate to those who are grieving.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
