LETTER

Community support is appreciated

The GFWC Book Lovers Study Club extends its sincere appreciation to all who supported the eighth annual “Maudie and Roger Bedford 5K Run and 1-Mile Walk to Wellness.”

This meaningful event enables our organization to assist individuals in our community on their personal journeys to wellness as they undergo cancer treatments.

We wish to express special gratitude to Heath Daily and Audrey Daniel of Russellville Hospital for their dedicated assistance and contributions to the success of this year’s event. We also gratefully acknowledge the generous support of our sponsors — Community Spirit Bank, First Metro Bank, CB&S Bank, The Dr. John D. Burns Rehabilitation Center, Russellville First Methodist Women, McKinney Law, Russellville Hospital, Pilgrim’s, Traditions, Russellville Florist, Jimmy and Sandy Montgomery, Brenda and Troy Oliver, Jim and Michelle Sibley, Andy Gualt at Gault Signs and Mayor David Grissom.

Through the continued generosity and community spirit of our sponsors and participants, we are able to carry forward the mission of this event — to promote wellness, hope, and support for those facing cancer. We are truly grateful for your partnership and encouragement. Patricia Cox, GFWC Book Lovers Study Club
