A worthy cause, indeed; however,

That would mean sunset; rather than, sunrise.

I don't know about others; but March 15th is too far down the road for my memory. Could you remind us in January or February, please.

I can't even tell you how much I admire Caregivers.So many charities throw money at big salaries,marketing and perks for the staff. You folks are at the grass roots ....taking care of the most needy people.We are most happy to be able to help.Our check is on the way.

Dianne and I will have a check out tomorrow...

I've been in the Home Health Business for 30 years.. Caregivers are under an impossible burden.. caring for their own families and aging parents..

Worthy cause! Nice post RG.

That’s what I thought too. I did question the photographer about the sunrise being mistaken for sunset. She stuck with sunrise.

You bet I will be reminding you! Our friend who is involved with Caregivers asked if I would post this now. I agreed with the condition she and hopefully her husband would "officially" join our forum family. They are lurkers currently and I know they would make great members.

Hi, this is my first time on, I am the lady that made the quilt for the caregivers raffle. I would like to Thank those that are sending checks for the raffle tickets and those that have just taken the time to read about these wonderful people at caregivers. They give there own time helping others, even if it's just a phone call to help with a problem, or someone to talk too. I'm sure we all can relate to just needing someone to listen to us vent, to have a night out with others that are going thru the same thing, and having someone else doing the cooking. Little things like these can help someone get thru another day. My heart goes out to these people careing for a loveone that may or maynot even know them anymore. I hope that I never have to spend even one day in there shoes. sorry to go on so, I just feel this is such a worthy cause, again I thank everyone.
