NOTES OF APPRECIATION
Dear Decatur Friends,
We have felt surrounded by God’s love and healing power during Buddy’s recent surgery and hospital stay. We feel blessed by your prayers and concern. We appreciate all the visits, cards, calls and attention. Last Tuesday Buddy was glad to be home and is making great progress, regaining strength and energy. Would you believe we were walking in the park by Thursday! Thanks for being such loving and caring friends.
Love, Joyce and Buddy Mariencheck

THE BLOOD DONOR
I try to give blood regularly
It’s so easy for me to give.
A momentary sting of pain
So that someone else might live.
The sharing of blood is a wonderful thing
And I have not one regret,
For once a donor covered me
Someone I’d never met.
Without his blood there was little hope
No future could I see
Now with each new day, I seek the face
Of the one who gave blood for me.
With unbearable pain, this gift of life
The only blood covering everyone
The greatest donor to walk this earth
God’s only begotten son!
LifeBlood is in desperate need of blood donors at this time. If you can give, please go to a LifeBlood Center or call them at 522-8585 – tell them to credit DTCC.
