In memory of our dear friend….

Yesterday, the Community Connections Support Services family lost our dear friend Brenda S.

We are sad for her family and especially her husband Danny and are so thankful to have known her and are blessed to have had her be part of our lives.

How cool is this?

 

Hey Everyone:

Some great pics of Candice H having a visit with firefighters from the Trail Fire Department and getting an opportunity to see what it’s like inside a fire truck.

So very cool, way to go Candice!
