Dear Editor,
Sending a note of thanks to the people of Belleville and surrounding communities who answered the crisis call from the Red Cross to give blood and platelets at the Belleville Kiwanis and Econo-misers recent drive. Sixty-nine pints were collected, including 19 first time givers. Many of those came from the BHS health class, or their parents and friends.
