I'm grateful for the opportunity to serve the community while also representing an organization dedicated to service. I also want to give a special shout-out to the St. Mary's Food Bank staff for their exceptional organization and warm welcome. Joseph, in particular, was fantastic. He made the experience lighthearted while still keeping us in line (pun not intended) and he even took song requests from Prince Fans (Purple Rain). Thank you to the entire St. Mary's team for all you do, and for providing opportunities that not only support the community, but also help other teams grow stronger together. Sincerely, a visiting Minnesotan.

I once lived in a bountiful where an immense freezer could be filled with earth's goodness of vegetables and fruits for a small expense in miles and cash. Not that easy in Arizona. The freezer was donated to St. Mary's - and welcomed. We keep our pantry stocked. When the "Best By" dates geow near on pantry goods, they are donated to St. Mary's and refreshed. I want to contribute quality to those less blessed than I have been. And, St. Mary's, being a religious organization charity, blesses families, and individuals with the foundation of living - food. A good value for all.

It must be why she ended her nursing career to work with dogs because they don't have the option to speak up and defend themselves against this tyrant. Her "foster home" is listed on the Resources List for alternative placement for Dogs provided by AZ Animal Welfare League & SPCA. Her "rescue" should be removed from this list that is given to the public. Karen spent more time talking to convince herself that she is absolutely perfect and I'm a horrible pet owner for wanting to foster/surrender our dog because we have a new baby daughter. We have attempted all avenues before making this hard decision that he needs to be happy in a home as an only dog with no young children. When a dog is given several weeks to be trained & adjust with a new family member in the home with no positive changes, our final option was to surrender him. Even after several weeks of trying to find a new home for him through family, friends, and having him listed on adopt a pet. Now, did she even care to listen to our story? No, as soon as she heard we have a new baby in our home she went off on a ridiculous rant. She is very judgmental and not someone I would even want our dog to be associated with ever!
