Let’s Share Some Holiday Spirit! Candy & Jeff Slabaugh are wonderful folks who live at on Fish Lake, on the road beside Maplewood Nature Center. They love to help others, and contribute so much to so many people. Jeff’s even a new lake association board member! Like many of us, it is hard to suddenly find ourselves in the humbling position of needing help. And so, we get the gift of taking turns supporting each other!
This last Wednesday, Candy had a second foot surgery. She will be recovering for about four months, non-weight-bearing. She is on disability from teaching her precious Montessori toddlers, but not receiving any disability income.
