If you cannot bring refreshments on the designated date, simply arrange to trade with someone else on the list. This is your responsibility. Please do not involve Bea in this matter. Penny Hendricks (newsletter editor) is the person who sets up the schedule.
P.S. Bea gave up the “job” temporarily because she was not feeling well. A special THANK-YOU to Lorna McClellan who helped out by taking over making the reminder phone calls.

From the editor: With great regret, I share the sad news that Herman Abrams passed away this week. He and his wife, Bea Abrams, were very active, long-time members of this fellowship until they moved north some years ago. Herman, we loved you!
