We
start the week of pink shirt pictures with Debbie's
Downtown Floral and Friendship Manor. Both Debbie's and
Friendship Manor donated items for the Pink Pumpkin
Fundraiser Auction held last Thursday night.
We thank them for their giving and their concern for
those who are battling breast cancer at this moment. We
all want a cure to be found. Money donated to the
American Cancer Society goes in part to provide research
grants to medical professionals. Research is done with
the intent that one day, not just breast cancer, but all
forms of cancer will be curable or eliminated
altogether.

Harvest
is an important time of year for area farmers, as it is
literally the time when they get to see the fruits of
their labors. When farmers head to the field in combines
with trucks or wagons following behind, they do so with
a sense of urgency.
That is why it is all the more remarkable when they pull
out of their fields and head off to a neighboring farm
to assist a family in need. That is what happened a
couple of weeks ago, as farmers gathered to harvest the
corn acres of the Osborn family. Chad Osborn passed away
on September 4th this year. With the loss it would be
more challenging for the family to move forward with the
harvest. But their neighbors and Brandt Fertilizer and
Grainland Cooperative stepped up and helped them get the
job done.
Chad's mother, Brenda, wanted to send all her neighbors
a public message from the Osborn Family. "A big thank
you to all the neighbors, Brandt Fertilizer and
Grainland Cooperative who helped harvest and transport
the Osborn corn crop following the loss of Chad. It was
much appreciated. - The Osborn family."
This is just another fine example of how the people of
this community look out for each other.
