BTW this is their legacy:
http://samaritanoutreachservices.com
Samaritan Outreach Services was formed in 1989 by Jean Carson and her husband Rev. John Carson, rector of St. Marys Episcopal Church in Hillsboro, Ohio. They along with Michael Maloney organized religious and community leaders to discuss how best to meet human needs in face of scarce social services in Highland County. They worked with both the Episcopal Appalachian Ministries and the Catholic Social Services in Cincinnati to create Samaritan Outreach Services.

(23,768 posts)think about all the shitty things Bush did. Also when I was younger he came to Tacoma to campaign for president he had the RNC private security detail beat the crap out of us protesters so fuck him!

(68,799 posts)I don't see a reason to be so nasty about this. I didn't like Bush as a president...but he was not Trump. My Mom died right after my Dad died. She simply didn't want to live after he was gone. My husband's Mom was the same way. I grow cold with terror at the thought of losing my husband. I can't imagine a world without him.
