Strokes from Other Pens

Letter to the Editor,

It is with great pleasure that I am sending distributions from the Trust of Muriel Brown. It was her wish that proceeds from her trust be distributed by myself on her behalf, based on the performance of her investments.

This year, each of the six organizations she cared about will receive a check for $8,231: Haxtun Health, Haxtun School District, Haxtun Methodist Church, Haxtun Swimming Pool, Haxtun Community Food Basket and the West Phillips County Cemetery District.

Muriel would have loved that these checks are being issued and without restrictions on how these organizations may use the funds. The organizations were notified, but I though the citizens of Haxtun would appreciate knowing about the generous gift Muriel gave to the town of Haxtun. This has been the fourth year in a row that distributions have been made from her estate.

Warmest regards,

Janell Foley, Trustee
