Thanks to Zelda Aaronson and Sylvia Goldin for hosting the September coffee. These are such an important part of the JFG’s events which keeps us close as a group.
The October Ladies’ coffee will take place on Friday, Oct. 18 at 10:30 a.m. hosted by Ellie Adelman and Judi Schumacher at Ellie’s home, 36500 S. Rockcrest Dr.
