HOME LINK MEMO
January 18th – 22nd, 2010
HOME LINK FAMILY
The Stewarts lost their home last week in a house fire. We are so grateful that no one in the family was injured (mom, dad and eight children) but the material loss was great. There is a fund set up for the Stewarts at Chase Bank, 12120 N. Division. Also, Wendy Speer will be coordinating the replacing of the homeschooling books as all were lost.

We had so many wonderful entries that it was very hard for our judges to make their decisions.
