bereavement support group, open to anyone

experiencing the loss of a loved one.

And to our first time attendees,

our meetings are usually more on a privacy basis,

but

we do, at various times,

offer other means of support,

through

guest singers,

many guests from

Flora,

 as Mayor Crowder

and guests from surrounding areas.

will certainly feel more relaxed,

we will assure you

as we strive to

""SUPPORT""

one another.

our delicious meal

We again thank

 THE FLORA HEALTH DEPARTMENT

have these

 "CARE NOTES"

available.
