WesleyLife Meals on Wheels

Had there been another motorist in any of those lanes, or a cyclist, it could’ve resulted in a crash and probable injury. All of this was reported to their offices in person since they don’t answer the phone when people call. I’m sure these folks provide a plethora of invaluable services to our aging population (which are appreciated by all of us), but abusing company resources, like an expensive vehicle, and puttin

Love my drivers and daily visit and checking on me. Nice to have a warm meal
