Jones recently met the 24-gallon mark in donating blood to the Amer- ican Red Cross. This is a result of 192 donations over at least 48 years. This is true service to her community, said Patti Perkins. Each donation can help as many as three people. The recent blood drive for the Hermiston community was held Aug. 17 at Good Shepherd Medical Center. The goal was 48 units from 61 appointments. However, due to a high number of deferrals and missed appointments, only 34 units were collected from 42 donors. As always great appreciation is felt for those who donate. The canteen was run by Altrusa International of Hermiston. The drives would not be so successful and well attended without our service groups and egg salad sandwiches, Perkins said.

The Aug. 22 event was attended by more than 100 inmates, who admired vehicles, ate snow cones and cotton candy and talked to the vehicle owners about their rides and experiences I have thoroughly enjoyed my counseling practice in Pendleton. Soon my husband, Jim Hanks, and I will move out of state to a warmer climate, but I want the people of Pend- leton and the surrounding area to know how much I have appreciated their support. In my six years here, I have met so many wonderful residents, including my many clients. My clients have been mailed letters about my move, but I also want the rest of the people in Pendleton and this area to know I will miss them, and my time here will be a pleasant memory. It has been a great town in which to do business! 4 Year Old Unneutered Boxer/ L ab Mix Jeremy Kurtis Shipton 9/13/1983 - 9/30/2003 Always on my mind. Forever in my heart.
