As I return to work today, I would like to thank my LLCC family for the continuous compassionate support that allowed me to stay home and care for my husband, Mark, in his last months. I cannot thank everyone individually but please know that each kindness made going through these difficult months possible. Thank you.

I would like to express my extreme gratitude for the wonderful send-off into retirement. I truly appreciate the cards, emails, gifts and warm wishes I received. Special thanks to April Bergman, Kristin Booher and Kim Alexander for creating such an amazing retirement reception! I am so thankful to have had this opportunity to serve LLCC and work with so many generous, talented and supportive colleagues. I wish you all the best and will certainly miss my LLCC family.

Are you planning a country western-themed wedding or party soon? The LLCC Foundation has two tumbleweeds that were used as decorations for the Spurs and Sparkles Gala in April. They are available for $40 each or two for $75. Below is a description from the Dried Décor website where they were purchased:
This Gigantic sized tumbleweed is guaranteed to move in the wind measuring between 24-30 inches this one will get your attention crossing the highway. These truly country plants are fun and decorative for any time. Try them painted for a fun Christmas tree that you can decorate for the holidays. A great decorative addition to any country western themed ho
liday, party, or occasion. These babies were meant to roll so if they are outside make sure they are tied down good.
Please feel free to view them in person in the Foundation or call 217-786-2343 or email llccfoundation@llcc.edu for more information.
