'Merry Christmas, grandma'

Samantha Feekes gives her grandmother, Bonnie Lear, a hug as students from Mountain Home High School visited with residents of Cedar Crest Residential Care Center on Friday.

Members of the high school's Health Occupation Students of America club met with the residents at Cedar Crest as well as those in the long-term care unit at the St. Luke's Elmore medical center as part of their yearly visit.

During their visit, the high school students delivered gift bags containing Christmas cards, cookies and other goodies. Students as well as local businesses provided items for the 50 gift bags that were handed out that afternoon.
