For The New Era
At nearly 83 years old, Dean Hummer begins four mornings a week the same way – with a welcoming smile, a steady pace, and a determination to help fill food boxes at Sweet Home Emergency Ministries.
“The thing I enjoy so much is volunteering with SHEM,” Hummer said with a smile. “It gives me something to focus on rather than myself. I like getting out and helping people.”
