Remember senior citizens during holidays

Tuesday, November 27, 2012

To the editor:

Please remind everyone to remember the senior citizens.

With the holidays here, give of your time as well as your money or food.

The Red Cross needs donations to help our people who were hit so hard by storms.

Donate cash to the "Meals on Wheels" program.

During the holidays, there is an increase in tragic deaths due to drinking and driving. Now, we add cell phone use while driving as another cause for accidents.

Loneliness in the elderly, now in nursing homes or living alone is so sad. Depression runs high in people of all ages at this time of year.

There are a few good people who take time to volunteer. Please take time to visit a nursing home, the hospitals, or a neighbor. You will make so many happy, plus will be rewarded for doing so.

Remember our service members and their families.

God loves us all.
