My neighbor of more than 30 years, Michael Allcock, is more than a good samaritan. He is the hands and feet of Christ. He helps me in many ways: brings my paper to my door, takes my trash can to the street, blows leaves off my roof, disposes of gum balls in my yard, and many other things.

The members of the choir of which I'm a member at First Baptist Church in Cape help me by carrying my chair folder into the choir loft. This because I use a cane and am a little unstable in walking. First Baptist is a very loving and caring membership.
