Tuesday, 3Aug10, New-ark, DE, Blood Bank of Delmarva and Terumo Blood Drive
Blood fact: “RBC’s, red blood cells, carry oxygen to the body’s organs and tissues.”
Another incredible day … with incredible people … thank you to all the donors and all the staff who make it all happen!
This time it was at the Blood Bank of Delmarva … and … a blood drive at Terumo corp … the company who makes “blood bags” … thank you to Terumo and its employees for the incredible job they did today … and … every day!
I want to thank all the awesome, incredible people I met today … you are an incredible example to the rest of your community and deserve to be recognized for the community service you provide.
I met all of these people today: Anthony S., Dave B., Barbara, Ann, Bill, Eunice C., Bob C., Janet, Mike H., Carrie A., Tom H., Shane P., Maggie, Sonya, Noah, Lauren C., April A., Lt. Matthew Donnelly (Elkton PD), Cpl.

As you can tell it was a fun-filled busy day … meeting, greeting and thanking donors and staff …
Every day I think I can’t possibly meet any nicer people than I have already met the day before and then I open my heart, share my smile and say “hi, I’m Larry … a recipient … who came here to “thank you” for the incredible community service you are performing … when you donate one pint of blood … or … for taking care of the donors as a staff member.
Every day … I meet more incredible, giving, compassionate people … and … I want to thank each of you for those memories … because without 110 donors … I wouldn’t be alive today … to experience the “selfless love” that each of you share with one another!
Tonight I made it to Sterling, VA … and tomorrow will be a busy day … as I try to make it to the Capitol and visit with the staff of one of our Senators … and … then make it back in time for a blood drive, etc.
Talk to you tomorrow …
Thank you …
