Another chance for a community that is already knee deep in helping its fellow man will be made available through the annual Bloodmobile at St. Roch’s Church. Scheduled date Saturday. November 2, 1974 – 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Last November. one cold morning, the Bloodmobile made its first stop at St. Roch’s Church, 6042 Waterman. Fifty-four people gave a pint of their blood that day in order to help save the life of someone unknown to them. In due course the St. Roch’s Bloodmobile was instrumental in prolonging the lives of three senior citizens in our community.
PLEASE sign up for the 1974 St. Roch’s Bloodmobile by calling either Rose Storey, 727-1727 or St. Roch’s Rectory, 721-6340 for the time most convenient for you to donate your blood.
Hats off to the foks who have given more than once already this year, especially Art Santen, Ed Walsh, and Bob Horner. Thanks Fellas!
