                Sorors met at two facilities to show appreciation to the nursing staff. We
         provided 35 gift bags of healthy snacks. In addition to our gift bags, Soror Lanita
         Slaton’s 5 years old grandson, Slaton, joined us and presented his picture

         drawings to the patients. As you could imagine, the patients were delighted to see
         Slaton and have a group of lovely ladies in pink and green to share with them.
                Our first stop was at “The Friends for the Elderly Home” owned by Ms.
         Lucille Friend Holden. Ms. Holden has been providing care for elderly patients for
         over 30 years. She was overwhelmed with joy and tears by the thought that
         someone wanted to take time to appreciate the work that her staff provides to
         others. Soror Cynthia’s mother is a patient at Lucille’s, and they made our visit
         even more special when she decided to sit on her mother’s lap for “Momma and
         daughter love.”
                Our second stop was at “Diversicare of Big Springs Nursing Home.” There
         were three nursing stations in this facility. The staff members were pleasantly

         surprised when we showed up and presented them with healthy snacks. They
         said, “Our visit made their day.”
                Overall, our first outing was a success. Sorors took time out of their
         Memorial Day weekend to appreciate caregivers, impact lives, and support our
         committee’s goal.
