I received an email this week from Elizabeth McCalley, the daughter of Harry Garwood of Aloha. Harry is recovering from a fall last week which resulted in a dislocated shoulder and 5 days in the hospital. She is very grateful for his neighbors who were so helpful and the medical care has been excellent. Thank you for his community support. He is in a rehab center for the next few weeks to get his arm and balance he is forever an optimist. He is as sharp as he has ever been and looks forward to his 90th birthday in July.

Patty Singer said that she is embarrassed to admit but she has been scammed. She was looking on FB for work to help supplement her Social Security. It was a job working remotely. A check was put in her bank account that when she checked with the bank, said it would have bounced if she tried to cash it. She wanted people to be aware of this so it does not happen to anyone else.
