One morning a week would be the time commitment. We need volunteers Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from about 10 a.m. to about noon or so. We encourage delivery teams of two or more, brothers/sisters, husbands and wives and friends, who together bring meals and smiles to those in need. To find out more, please email hchandel@seniorplus.org or call 207-513-3710 Thank you Sun Spots, for your column that betters our community by bringing us together.

DEAR SUN SPOTS: I have two editions of Life Magazine published immediately after President Kennedy’s assassination and one edition of a Paris, France edition of a magazine also published in late November 1963. This one is all in French and is most interesting. I thought these might be a valuable addition for a collector of Kennedy memorabilia. They are yours for the taking, call 207-784-8891.
