Bill Green is 100

I am sure you would all like to hear that Bill Green will celebrate his 102^nd Birthday this coming Thursday 21^st August, 2014! He started Blue Kerry many years ago and Jan and Jeff Dick are organising a small celebration for him and his close school friends!

 

They will also be renaming the cottages after him

 

Should anyone like to send messages of good wishes to this amazing man, on this momentous occasion , please send them via Jan Dick Email......scuffcc@gmail.com

Jan’s email to me read:

 

“It is such a privilege for us to have an amazing man of his age amongst us, don't you think?  He certainly is ...one in a million!.....an inspirational gentleman..

He loves receiving a copy of Ndeipi every month and enjoys having the articles read to him...sadly his eyesight is fading and he can't read small print any longer .”

 

Are there any other healthy folks out there that are nearing their 100^th birthday and can still hold a decent conversation? Why do some folks live to such an old age?

Hospice Bulawayo Aug 18 Dear friends of Hospice, Please take time to read our 2014 appeal. As a non-profit organization reliant on the generosity of corporates, public and service clubs our hospice has been hard hit by the financial crisis currently affecting the country. Donor support and fund raising projects have kept us afloat thus far but we currently only have sufficient reserves to meet one to two months expenditure. Cost cutting measures are still in force from last year. Our staff remains on reduced pay.

However our monthly expenditure is still in the region of US$8,500.00 per month. Our year on year monthly income and expenditure for 2013-2014 are available for perusal. Please email us should you require a copy. We have lined up a number of fundraising events for which we seek your support.

In September we will host our annual Ladies Tea, in October a Motor Show has been pencilled in, in November a Healthy food expo is planned as well as a Street Collection. We will also participate in the Whitestone School fete where we will have on sale a collection of valuable books and a small assortment of antiques. We will round off the year with our annual 'Light a Light for Hospice' carols by candlelight.
