"If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?"
If a kettle whistles on the stove and the elderly woman who lives in the home forgets she lit the fire beneath it, is the water still boiling?If day time television drones endlessly while that same senior dozes in her recliner, is the program still relevant? And then, a knock on the door jars the senior back into reality, and the kettle whistles back to life and the games shows, soap operas and re-runs crackle back into significance.Meals-on-Wheels of Johnson and Ellis Counties has no difficulty understanding this riddle when it comes to the more than 725 clients on the organization’s daily meal delivery. Volunteers are particularly needed during the summer months to ensure that the clients receive a meal and with the summer heat, they also helps in preventing possible heat-related deaths because clients are being checked on. For more information about becoming a volunteer, to make a donation or to inquire about services – in Johnson County, call 817-558-2840; in Ellis County, call 972-351-9943, or visit the Website: www.servingthechildrenofyesterday.org.
