Many wonderful retirement celebrations have continued this week which is the custom for this time of year. One of those I attended today was for two wonderful educators from Citrus Springs Elementary School. Donna Scott and The Queen of Speech, Shauna Parrish. Collectively they have provided over 50 years of service to thousands of students. They both cared for my children in elementary school. I am so grateful to them for their impact on our school and school district. God Bless you in retirement, and God Bless and thank you to all our retirees!

As our summer school holidays begin Citrus County Blessings is transitioning into our Summer Feeding program. As a member of the Board of Directors, I am often asked about how Citrus County Blessings began. What better way to learn about it than directly from Citrus Blessings Founder, Debbie Lattin. Follow the link below to watch the video.
Thank you Ms. Lattin for founding this great organization.
