FUNERAL LUNCHEONS

A variety of tasks are performed by the committee.  Co-chairs work together to organize the committee and help prepare for the luncheon.  Also a team calls from our volunteer list for food and workers.  Other volunteers have the choice of donating salads, relish, or desserts; helping serve the luncheon, or cleaning afterwards. Many hands make light work!
