A dedicated and hard working team of workers and volunteers involved with the BGF Luncheon Club are to be admired for their selflessness and sense of duty when caring for others in need. What is striking about the LC is the generous spirit of it's volunteers toward their community. We all picked up the same habits as children,"it is the habit of eating". And that habit has stayed with me all of my life thus far. Congratulations to Carole Ann King for starting this important work all those long years ago. Congratulations to BGF for continuing her work. In conclusion I want to say I was touched by the kindness shown to me at the 16TH birthday celebratory luncheon yesterday. Happy Birthday to the Luncheon Club. Here's a sloppy kiss from me. An important charity doing much needed vital work in our community.
