Mokelumne Ward Member Rex Barnes had been either in a hospital or in a rehab center for over a year. The time finally came for him to sell his house and go to stay with a daughter in Montana. But the home needed to be cleaned out to make it ready for the sale so they could show the house.
Under the supervision of Ardell Gillingwater, Relief Society Service Coordinator, the house was cleaned out and a garage sale was held. In the collage above, in green plaid shirt is Brother Barnes' daughter Danielle who came from Montana to help. Pictured with her is Ann Grether who came almost every day to help. In the top left picture is Liz Sprowls who also spend a lot of time on the project. Others who helped were Lisa Holden and Tammy Woods. In the lower right picture the sister missionaries are having a cobweb celebration. "It's a wonderful opportunity to get rid of cobwebs," said Ardell. Anyway you look at it, a great service was performed. Above: Ardell poses with family in front of a nice clean house.
