AN OVERVIEW OF THE FOOD BANK.
WE LOST OUR SNOOPY IN JANUARY 2017. RIP OUR DEAR LITTLE
BOY.
We also have a volunteer food bank dog. Meet Snoopy Burnett.
Handsome fellow, isn't he? He is the official taste tester of damaged packages of cookies and dog biscuits . Snoopy
has agreed to host small kid tours of the food bank along with volunteer Andrea Flaherty, and give out his autographed Snoopy
cards to all. To bring your students or troop for a tour , give a call to the food bank and leave your name and
number. Andrea will contact you asap.
Judy Schermerhorn and Joanne Norton shown here at our booth at the Historical Society's Apple Festival. Volunteers representing
the food bank look forward to "fly-ering" the crowds at public events, part of our ongoing educating process.
Here are Ann Brinkman & Sally McGahey, the "Skiffway Girls", enjoying a break at the annual Xmas luncheon at

LET US REMEMBER ...

STEFFIE SERENA |
Our beloved and late volunteers, Rose Furbeck and her husband,
Howard , were members of the Monday morning "packin' and sackin" club. Rose also ran the food
pantry for the United Methodist Church which serves the needy who do not live in Lacey.
"MR. FOODBANK"
The Lacey Food Bank lost a friend and comrade on June 2nd, when Emil Ciangetti, former Chairman, and one of the original founders
of the food bank, died as a result of an automobile accident.
Emil, 81, was a loving father to his grandson Steve, who he adopted as a young boy. He was involved in the food bank until
his death, and belonged to many civic organizatons as well as being active in the Village Lutheran Church in Lanoka Harbor.
He is honored for his many good deeds performed within his family and his community.
Rest in Peace Friend
Ralph Lanuto, shown here with his wife Edna, was a pioneer in the foodbank, back when Emil, Ziggie and he were the only ones
manning the "fort'. An active civic minded man, he served as our liaison to clubs and organizations. We miss his hearty
laugh and helping hands.
