Dear Seniors,

We are into this beautiful Fall season, enjoy the foliage but please ask for help in raking leaves if needed. Please inquire, as there are services available to help!

And as we head into the colder months, do not forget to apply for Energy Assistance. There are different programs available and Kathie will sit with each of you to see which ones you qualify for! Don’t be cold this winter, stay warm and in your heated home! As always, I am here for questions or concerns!
