Linda Boyken was discharged from the hospital on Friday, Feb 2. Her hospital stay was a real roller coaster ride! She is now in the rehab wing at Avera Prince of Peace for physical and occupational therapy until she is ready to return home.
If you would like to send her a card, I know it would lift her spirits. You can use her regular address, and I will make sure her mail gets to her.

A big thank you to Glen Robel, Don & Marlys Moore, Jo Gardner & Curt Kost, Frank Kitterman, Sue & Alan Pearson, Ken & Wendy Fransen, Dan & Cyndy Voight, and Rosanne Dyce Anderson. I want to give a very heartfelt thank you to Lou Walford and Berdene Boersma as they have decided to retire from delivering meals. This was their last week delivering after what must be at least 20 years!! Is there anyone who would like to try to fill their shoes next year? Thank you to all those who have helped deliver meals this year.
~ Lynne
