OPTIC MAGNIFIER DONATED

On March 26, 2015, the Freeport Lions Club donated an Optelec Clear Vision-Plus Electronic Magnifier to Freeport resident, Judy Mattison. The Center for Sight and Hearing in Rockford IL recommended an optic magnifier for her while on a recent trip to their facility.

When Judy’s mother, Sally, visited her daughter from Florida, she contacted Lions Rich Montgomery, Paul Rampenthal and Joe Serafini. Fortunately the Freeport Lions Club had a magnifier recently donated to them, and actually has three such devices currently loaned out in the community. Lion Rebecca Shriver coordinated delivery of the magnifier.
 
According to Lion Terry Anderson, “It was a nice feeling to see the smiles on Judy's and Sally's faces when the machine was delivered. They were very thankful for all the Lions’ help."
