Dear Rabbis, Last weekend several members of your congregation moved my nonprot organizationfrom a residential to business location, spendinga beautiful Saturday hauling heavy equipment(and driving it in their own vehicles from Fort
Collins to Loveland!) for someone they had never met before. I can't begin to thank them enough,most especially Fran Levine for sending wordthrough the congregation that we were in needof volunteers and rallying the troops. If it hadn'tbeen for her and the gentlemen from Har Shalom(whom I didn't get the opportunity to say goodbyeand thank again), our move would have takenthe entire weekend instead of six hours. Theyworked hard. I am so touched that people I don'tknow would give up their Saturday to help us. I should be so fortunate as to have theopportunity to re-pay this favor to your
congregation; please let me know how andwhen, and pass on my gratitude to everyone.We truly appreciate it. Thank you,Heather Holmes, Director Rocky Mountain Medical Outtting & Recyclinghttp://www.RMMOR.orgPh. 970-266-8190
