REFLECTIONS ... by Joanne Rupp


Last month when I was writing about the emergency light/exit sign issues I mentioned that we need another Glenn Beagle.  Never did I think that one month later I would be saying we need another Kay Beagle.  We all know there is no one person who can be a Kay Beagle.  It will take a lot of us to equal Kay. 

In March we will be put to the test when Family Promise comes back to Zion for two weeks.  Kay was the person who filled in all the holes when no one volunteered to help.  I will admit that I am one of the people who never volunteered to be on site.  I would think, “This is not in my wheelhouse.  I don’t know how to do this.”  I think there are a lot of people like me.  A “regular” needs to take me by the hand and be my mentor.  I hope there are others out there that just need a mentor because it is going to take a lot of mentoring to fill the hole that Kay has left.  Let’s honor Kay together.
