Club members are gratified when someone who has borrowed an article expresses appreciation for the loan. They ask no other reward although occasionally the gratitude is expressed in a more tangible form, thus helping the club help others. Unfortunate ly, several wheelchairs have been loaned in the past few years, and track of them has been lost. If you are one of those who benefitted from the use of a Rotary wheelchair, or know where one is, won't you please let a Rotarian know? TEMPLER FUNERAL HOME KING STREET WEST COLBORNE THOMAS H.
