COBYS Celebrates 40 Years Of Service The Founding Of A Legacy By Ann Mead Ash
Sarah Adams, of Lititz, was 16 weeks pregnant with her son, Davin, when she and her husband, Clark, received heartbreaking news in May 2018. “We
COBYS Family Services celebrated 40 years in the Lancaster area at a banquet on March 12. The numbers being held up represent the more than 60,000 unique points of service COBYS has provided over four decades to children, adults, and families in the area. By Ann Mead Ash
When COBYS Family Services held its 40th anniversary banquet celebration at Middle Creek Church of the Brethren on March 12, most of the presentations were made by video.
“ We didn’t do that because of COVID-19,” said Anne Stokes, director of development for COBYS, who was the program’s master of ceremonies with executive director Mark Cunningham. “It was just an easier way to do them.” See COBYS pg 3
found out … that he had a rare terminal condition,” recalled Sarah, who noted that her son’s problems were caused by a genetic condition called Noonan’s syndrome. Neither she nor her husband carries the gene for the condition. In the face of the news, both Sarah and Clark turned to their faith. “We know God can heal, but we know He doesn’t always heal,” said Sarah. “Every week that (Davin) was living and growing and sick, (we thought), ‘Let’s see if we can get further.’” Sarah said the situation taught her how to live in the moment. “I coped by enjoying the time we had, so we had a gender reveal party and a baby shower,” said Sarah, who noted that she has a number of photos from See Founding A Legacy pg 8

Dads have many great qualities. With Father’s Day on the way, townlively.com is giving you an opportunity to honor your dad by sharing what you love about him.
On May 1, Jan Garrabrandt, who owns The Artist’s Inn and Gallery on Main Street in Terre Hill with her husband, Bruce, posted a photo of red apples hanging from a tree with a riddle: “What kind of apple throws the best parties?” The post invited friends to comment with the answer, which was “gala,” of course. The post was the first of several leading up to May 13, National Apple Pie Day, which celebrates one of America’s favorite desserts. On that day, Jan’s recipe for apple pie, the one she has served at the inn for decades, was spotlighted in an @forbes article, along with recipes from more than a dozen other inns. Jan’s recipe, which was passed to her from her mother, Sophie Witkowski, is unusual because it uses heavy cream. “I chose the recipe with heavy cream because we are surrounded by dairy

Mix cream, sugar, salt, and flour, and put (the pie) in the oven,” she shared. “It’s super easy,” said Jan, who noted that the pie does not have a top crust. The story may be found by searching the internet for “Forbes, 12-charming-recipes-from-the-countrys-top-inns.” The apple pie at The Artist’s Inn and Gallery is served on a seasonal basis to complete the morning meal. “We serve breakfast, and we always serve dessert,” explained Jan, who added that breakfasts at the inn have four courses. The first course includes
