“This Group is a Lifesaver”

That’s the way the women at the Peitz House cancer support center feel about a different kind of support group.  While a group of about 20 women sit together knitting and crocheting, they relax with the uplifting and kind words of others who share stories and laugh.  At the same time they are making shawls, lap robes, hats, scarves, buntings and angels for the local craft fair.

“You can come here feeling so down,”one woman said,  “and it’s a real pick-me-up.”
