On January 21, 2026, the Rotary Club of Marlin delivered two pair no-slip socks to each of the 44 residents of the Golden Years Rehabilitation Center in Marlin. While the hymn “Amazing Grace” played, gifts bags were presented individually to residents by Rotary Club Scholarships Chair Jimi Lynn and Rotarian Beth Mullins, Member Nominee Chelleye Crow, Rotary Club President Chip Parmer, Rotary Public Image Chair Letitia Estep, and Rotary Special Projects Chair Mark Pedersen.
Why socks? Socks provide warmth, comfort, and protection. “We hope this simple gift of new, very soft socks will show residents right here in our community’s rehabilitation center that we think of them; they are loved and valued,” explains a Rotarian.
