These are the precious people who labored before us and paved our way. The very lease we can do is feed them. We owe them that, and more. Sad to read people complaining about feeding people.

Come on, parents step up to your obligations and help feed our elder generation that helped raise you!! I was raised by a single mom, who managed to feed me breakfast and provide a brown bag lunch for twelve years and took no handouts.

The current fiscal year ends September 30th. I would think the council on aging providing meals would qualify if any of them have money left to spend. it is my understanding each county commissioner receives a $50,000 annual discretionary fund.
