Silver Bells delivers joy to homebound seniors
Alma Blankenship: ‘Meritan is my godsend’
Alma Blankenship, 85, who has gotten help from Meritan since her husband died five years ago, says she doesn't need much for Christmas and is thankful for the things she has: a son who helps take care of her, a nice home in Bartlett. But Meritan's Silver Bells program is dedicated to providing seniors like Alma a few necessities under the tree like new sheets, a blanket and slippers. (Jim Weber/Daily Memphian)
