Carper Benefit Sunday

Sunday a sloppy joe lunch will be served at the Blue Hill Senior/community center from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. to raise money to assist in medical expenses for Dorwin Carper. A free will offering will be received. Carper has battled cancer since 2005. The disease, which began as colon cancer spread to his lung and then to his bones. Carper presently goes to Lincoln every two weeks for chemo therapy treatments and is unable to work. Carper and his wife Cheryl live on a farm near Ayr. They are the parents of five, who all attended school in Blue Hill, and grandparents of eight. Dorwin Carper has been a bus driver in Blue Hill school for about 20 years. The charity event has been sponsored by St. Paul's Lutheran Church and Thrivent Financial for Lutherans as well as the Community of Blue Hill. For more information or to donate contact Rev. Dan Cosson at 402 890 1930.
