Kiwanis Funnies…
Paul Cotton shared that if anyone that needed a ride, they should contact Warren
Mitchell. He only
charges a dollar
a mile. Larry Murphy
also shared his experience
of “roto-rooter” at
LRGH and that is
why he missed the
Community Health
and Hospice meeting.
Paul
Cotton traded in his motorcycle for a slower mode of transportation.
