Newark Free Lunch Program issues call for help
Wayne Post
Before the pandemic, the Newark Free Lunch Program provided over 7,800 meals annually at Emmanuel United Methodist Church. The basement dining room was forced to close last March, so volunteers prepared grab-and-go lunches that were handed out at the door.
The number of lunches given out went up due to unemployment. In the past year, volunteers handed out 22,205 lunches. This included 162 Thanksgiving dinners and 158 Christmas dinners. Mostly adults received meals in the past, but there was an increase in the number of families with children needing lunch during the pandemic.
“This volume has devastated our budget and we need some financial help,” managers Manny and Alice Crespo said. “In the last 28 years, we have never turned anyone away and we do not want to turn anyone away now.”

On Feb. 6, 1971 she married the love of her life, Michael Allen “Mick” McKee who preceded her in death in 2008.

She continued her education at Shepherd College, prior to working at Potomac Edison until the birth of their daughter, Alyson, when she dedicated her life to her most valued job, being a mother and wife.
