Our new client, Margaret, walks sometimes with a cane, and uses a couple of hearing aids. But, considering that she's 92 years old, she's otherwise in good health. She enjoys volunteering at Providence Marianwood, reading, and her cat. Margaret's good friend at church has been a client of Faith in Action for several years. She kept on telling Margaret to join up with the agency, but Margaret was very proud. Margaret didn't want to admit that she could use the help. But she finally decided not to be so stubborn, and called the Faith in Action office.
We just got a note from Margaret on Monday, after a ride to a hearing aid specialist. She wrote:
My first time with Faith in Action was a very pleasant experience. Dick Drumm was so nice and so easy to talk to. Thank you - I will not hesitate to call you next time.
Our trained volunteers, like Dick Drumm, help make our new clients feel comfortable accepting the assistance that they need. With their help - and your support - we can continue to serve frail elders like Margaret.
