Funeral Committee update

Maxine Kahler has done a wonderful job as our chairperson for the funeral committee. Her enthusiasm and devotion has helped the luncheons run smoothly. Maxine has now expressed the desire to step down as chair, so we will be working under a new system. Cheryl Sturges and Marguerite Fowler will be organizing the food order and calling for food donations. Wanda Watts and Jim Tracey will be overseeing the kitchen the day the luncheon is served. Members of Zion have always been generous with their time and donations. Many who have helped in the past have expressed the desire to continue working; we hope this transition will be a smooth one.

Fresh new look to the kitchen

Thank you to the Women of Zion for funding the kitchen project. John Bender and Arlyn Groen laid the new tile, Dan Druckrey polished the new tile, Dennis and Cheryl Sturges took the doors and drawers off to stain and varnish them, Cindy King painted the walls, John and Lois Bender, Mike Knitter, and Cheryl Sturges put up new wallpaper, Mike and Cindy King, John and Lois Bender, Jim and Marilee Sellers, Wanda Watts and Dennis and Cheryl Sturges cleaned out the cupboards and reorganized them, put back the doors and drawers. If you haven’t had a chance to look at it, be sure to go and peek in the door. Some things have been moved to a new location. If you think about where you would use the item, look close to that place—for Example a coffee cup can now be found by the coffee pot; the dish rags and towels are now near the sink; serving utensils are now at the serving window, etc.
