The dinner is held annually to honor the memory of Rev. Thomas Wall who was active in making the Samaritan Shelter a warm and protective temporary home for persons who need a warm bed, a hot meal and some companionship during a hard time. Life is not always easy. Now managed by Ms Shelly Daniels, the dinner is still an annual event where you see all your neighbors and friends, out for a good meal, and great conversation. At this year's dinner, Mayor Bruce Morrison presented a check for $3000 to the shelter for their continued expenses. Shelly Daniels accepted the check from our mayor. Other funds were raised here through donation cans on the tables and proceeds from the ticket sales.
