“I like the food. And I like the fact that they deliver it every week on time. The service is great.”

Joyce Stivers, Meals on Wheels client

“The level of care, compassion and service CASS provides to our seniors is extraordinary. They show that they genuinely care. CASS has always stepped up for seniors when other services have fallen short or failed to deliver at all. Sometimes, I ask myself: If something happened to me tomorrow would I be confident that CASS could serve my needs? The answer without a doubt is YES!”

“Mere words would fail to express my thanks to you for all the times that you have come through for me. I'm sure that you don't know how your weekly acts of kindness make my life happier, healthier and a lot less stressful. I will always remember you and your selfless acts.”

Note from client to Meals on Wheels driver Rose Harris

“I love my job. I’ve thought about leaving. I just can’t. It’s the best darned job in town. These folks – these seniors – they embrace you. They embrace each other. We’re family.”
