For the total, alphabetical listing of classmates which the Sunshine Committee
have sent cards and or gifts to,
see the alphabetical listing above.

The committee has decided to have the following guidelines:

 

1. Our expenses will be limited to $50.00 per event.

2. We will send "sunshine gifts" to any class member/spouse, depending upon the occasion.

3. Upon notification of the death of a classmate's parent or child, we will send the family a "sympathy card" and a bud vase with a flower, (preferably a white rose), to the funeral home.

4. We will send "sympathy cards" to class members in the event of the loss of a sibling.

 


Barb asked me to thank you all for the great contributions
she has received from our classmates, for our Sunshine Fund!

We have 25 class members who have contributed to this fund, so far.

Hey -- let's give them a hand!

Thanks!
