Our church now does its announcments via a video and this one is done by our pastor's wife shortly after a surgery. Watch till the end. You'll get to see our pastor in a new role. http://www.youtube.com/nc4video#p/a/u/0/FYyHCK1vWzc
That reminds me of when my Grandmother was alive. She had throat problems and couldn't speak above a whisper, so she had a little bell to ring when she needed my Aunt Janice for something. My Aunt, needless to say, grew to hate the sound of that bell. Although I suppose she wishes she could hear it now....
Yeah, I do miss my Grandfather yelling "MIKE!" when ever he needed something or just to ask a simple question. The best was when I got a letter from a girl I really liked and he yelled for me (usually it was for his meds or help getting dressed) and when I came running he asked if I wrote her back yet and to get to it.
