The Compass - Senior Services of Wichita

All Roads Lead to...Linwood Senior Center
A Big Thank You,
Dear Friends,
Wow, another year has come & gone! I
hope you had a year full of memories.
2014 has brought great joy, as well as
unfortunate loss for many of us. For those
of you who are missing loved ones, my
prayers and my heart goes out to you.
Loss due to a fire, recently came to the
Downtown Center and so we have Gerald
McCoy, the DSC director, here with us and
some of the DSC members coming in as
well. Thank you for your welcoming
kindness to all who come to our Linwood
family! We will be cozy together.
My hope is that we will all continue to
encourage one another —wherever we
may be in this road called life, and that each
of you can find wonderful possibilities for
your future. Look inside our pages to
kick off a great start to a positive new year!
Yours truly——Cherise
To all who have given from
the heart!
Your generosity to the Salvation
Army Foster Care Program and the
Children was overwhelming!!
We had a “mountain” of luggage,
totes and backpacks. One special
lady, is continuing to take totes and
cover them with material that
would make any child happy. So
please continue to bring the tote
bags with writing on them, and she
will continue to supply the children
with totes! (See Pictures on Pg 19)
