Learning to help save a life

April 20, 2016 By Special to The Laker/Lutz News

On the morning of April 5, a CPR class was held in our community center. Approximately 50 residents attended. It was very informative, and even if we learned one thing, it was well worth it. This program was presented by Florida Hospital Zephyrhills and arranged by Brian Heidman.

Much of what we had learned in our youth is now obsolete, and has been replaced by new techniques and technology. The class was followed by a brief question-and-answer period, which also permitted us to try CPR on a dummy that was on the stage.

Coffee and donuts followed. Ron and Joyce Bell took care of preparing the coffee, while Larry Wills picked up the doughnuts and was the liaison for the communities. Our thanks go out to Brian for arranging this important class.

Later the same day, approximately 30 women attended a luncheon at Scotland Yards. The place had large painted windows and chandeliers. The dining room was so pretty with the views from the windows adding to the attraction. One such view was cardinals in a nest.

When you put 30 women together, you can imagine the different and varied discussions going on.

The luncheon was hosted by Rosie Semian and our thanks go out to her.
