Betty has been a stalwart in the Barber Shop for many years. Now as she battles cancer, a double whammy of lost income and high health insurance premiums have drained her finances. To help her through this rough patch, more than 75 of her former customers contributed almost $10,000 to a group fund dubbed “Friends of Betty.” On Sept. 14, Barber Shop Manager Ron Overmann and I met with Betty and delivered the checks. She was deeply moved by the show of support and said it gives her renewed strength. |
