Condolences to the family and friends of the Dean Speth family
on the passing of Donna's mother.
Please be aware that there was a rash of car break ins
mainly searching for cash. Some were even reported
in rural areas.
All the Groundhog Day photos have been added to
the "Events" tab above. Thank you to everyone who
contributed and thank you to John Moss for identifying
the older cars.
Everyone must be busy cleaning out their closets. We've had
several requests for this information lately. Although we usually
recommend giving items to the CMH Thrift Store, we don't want
to forget all the good things that happen at the Friendship
Home in Lincoln, who deal directly with women who are victims
of domestic violence. Clothing for them and their children may
be donated at :
Good Neighbor Center
2617 "Y" Street
(leave donations in the rear of building)
Monday - Thursday 8:30 a.m. - 3:30 p.m.
