Gift of Memory
Boys and their toys!!!
Kevin Dusenbury and “The Boys” announce that the Gift of Memory Program, which benefits Potter County’s Christmas House, is now underway for the 23rd year!! Through Dusenbury’s business, the Virgil L. Howard Funeral Home in Shinglehouse, local residents can contribute presents in memory of their deceased loved ones to the Christmas House, which distributes gifts to over 1,200 Potter County children and elderly during the holidays. In the past 22 years, gifts too numerous to count were collected at the funeral home and presented to the Christmas House for distribution to needy families. Those wishing to make donations of new, unwrapped toys or gifts can call Dusenbury at 814-697-6570.
Again this year, the Christmas House is asking that we start our program early to be able to have distribution to the recipients as early as possible. Donations will be collected until Friday, December 1, 2023.
