Heck Project
July 11, 2011
Donald, OR

Mr. Heck had been struggling for years with the late stages of Lou Gehrig's Disease (ALS).  His wife had been caring for him and needed some help with things around the house, as he was unable to walk or work anymore.  Volunteers installed risers on his reclining chair, which enabled him to sit & stand up with his walker more easily.  In addition, two families got together to provide yard work, some goodies, and general encouragement one sunny day.
