You’re never too old to give the gift of life!
Pictured above is Lois Wernicke, one of the many folks who came out to donate blood at the June 30 Swannanoa Community Blood Drive, sponsored by Friends and Neighbors of Swannanoa (FANS), in cooperation with the American Red Cross and Valley Hope Church. At the time, Lois was just one week shy of her 97th birthday! Amazing! The next blood drive will take place in September. Stay tuned for details . . . .
