These are the times that try men's souls
These famous words of Thomas Payne, written in December, 1776, might well describe life in 2020. Our souls are certainly being tried in these days of COVID-19, social distancing, furloughed jobs, masks, hand sanitizer, pick-up and delivery only from our favorite restaurants, special senior citizen grocery shopping hours, no hospital or nursing home visits, no school, graduation ceremonies, or parties, and particularly hard are no or limited attendance at funerals and graveside services. But, just as we can read about the trials and tribulations faced by past generations, we will be able to pass on our experiences to future generations. We would like to thank you all for your understanding and patience during these unique and frustrating days.
We regret that we had to cancel our annual Spring fundraiser, Death by Chocolate & Wine. We have also made the tough decision to not hold our annual Fall fundraiser, History Walk at Green Ridge Cemetery. We certainly hope these events will return in 2021!
Stay safe; we hope to see you in the post-COVID-19 future!
