With the help of the VON HOMME Program and wonderful volunteers, Rook is able to get to her appointment at Images By Joanne each Friday morning to visit with Joanne Liley, owner. Bob Patterson (pictured) is a VON volunteer driver who assists Rook and others in Lucan to get to their various appointments.
