Grilling for a good cause

Posted

Mike Mason, left, and Ryan James, center, man the grill for the Caring & Sharing hamburger fundraiser Friday, June 9 at the City National Bank in Mineola, with C&S campaign chairman Roy Shockey. “They slaved over a very hot grill for almost three hours while Lori Puckett and Misty Hooks assembled every hamburger and lunch that left the building, all 274 of them,” Shockey said. The rest of the bank staff assisted in slicing onions and tomatoes and shredding lettuce. Another group of dedicated volunteers assisted in getting the hamburger meals distributed throughout the community. Becky and Joel Moore, Sandy Burleson, Art and Audrey Gould, Greg Hollen, Richard Elston, Janell Abbott, Pam Thurman and Fernando Arreola joined Beth and Roy Shockey. The event raised $2,740 for the annual Caring & Sharing Christmas distribution and may become an annual event.
