Seniors: Senior Sunshine Club

Good News: Poker Table players had a big but tender hug for Bob Rescigno at last Thursday’s get-together at the Senior Activity Center. Naturally, he won big. Bob is recovering from serious heart surgery and was scheduled for more surgery on Monday.

Better News: For those of you who have inquired, Pastor Bill Grimbol is home from the hospital and is well on the road to recovery.

Best News: Kay Corbett, Karoline Kilb and I survived the trip to visit Hazel Essex on April 28. In the heavy fog and rain, I missed the Syosset exit off the LIE. When we crossed the Cross Island Parkway, I figured we had gone too far. But we still had time to take Hazel to her favorite eatery, the Pancake House on Jericho Turnpike. She is as pretty as ever and still loves chocolate.

We have a thank-you note from Greg L’Hommedieu whose mother Barbara has been a Sunshine Club member for a number of years. “The cards” (yours and mine), he says, “brighten her days.”

Won’t you send a card of caring to Bob and Pastor Bill and a cheery note to all the other members of the Shelter Island Sunshine Club. You will brighten their days.
