At the March 19th Forney City Council meeting, Dena Pope was presented with a proclamation from Forney Mayor Darren Rozell that proclaimed March 2013, “March For Meals Month” in the City of Forney. The proclamation urged every citizen to take time this month to honor our Senior Nutrition Programs, the seniors they serve, and the volunteers who care for them.
Pope said that the Layden Senior Citizens' Center of Forney also serves Crandall and that approximately 30 meals a day are served through the center's Meals on Wheels program.
