ICE CREAM SOCIAL

Ice cream, dancing and smiles at WCSC

A fun time was had by all at last month’s ice cream social at the Whiteside County Senior Center. Helen and DuWayne got the crowd up on their feet to dance to beat of ’50s, ’60s and country music, and guests enjoyed building their own sundae and helping their fellow seniors, too — money from the event went to WCSC’s food pantry.

PASSAGES

Bidding farewell to friends of LCCOA

John Fritts ... Dedicated to making our county the best it can be

John Fritts was a dedicated, compassionate, and intricate part of LCCOA for many years. His devotion to the seniors of Lee County was demonstrated daily in his work at Lee County Council On Aging. He was truly a man to admire for his hard work and constant effort to make Lee County a better place for all its residents. He will be missed by all who knew and loved him. Farewell, John, your spirit will live on forever.

Linda Reynolds ... Putting her art and soul into LCCOA

Linda was a constant smiling face at Lee County Council on Aging. Her vivacious smile and sweet personality made everyone love her. She lived life to the fullest; even with all her medical issues, she kept pushing ahead. She never let her disabilities get her down.

LCCOA and Linda’s family would like to share her last pieces of art with all the seniors in our community. Even at the end, Linda’s work showed happiness.
