Wrapped in Support Continued from Page 6B. United States. Orangeville native, Karen Robertson Gordon wanted her son to have a new blanket to use in the barracks he will be staying in when he returns from Iraq in November. She then thought about the other 399 soldiers that will also be returning and wanted each one of them to have a new blanket too. She expressed her wishes to friends and word spread rapidly about the project that it is now generating interest throughout the United States. Earlene Allen, Karen’s sister, has pledged 33 blankets, one for each member of her family. A lady in San Antonio heard about it from a friend in Kansas. A group of children stationed at Randolph Air Force Base called “We Serve Too,” also will be making and donating blankets. Karen received a box with five blankets from a lady in Michigan who stated that she has two sons serving in the military and heard about the project and wanted to help. When Karen and her sister Robin were in a fabric shop buying fabric, a lady overheard them talking and gave them money because she also wanted to help. A Young Women’s group in Perry, Utah has seven blankets ready and a young women’s group in Ogden has 20 blankets. There are reports of blankets being made in Raleigh, N.C.; Huntsville, Ala., in Hawaii, Kansas, Texas, and South Carolina and inmany other areas of the United States.. Ruth Whimpey, Karen’s mother, was instrumental in getting the local Orangeville and Ferron American Legion Auxiliary groups involved in making and donating blankets to the cause. Each blanket will have a note/card attached that reads, “This blanket was made with love, support and belief in you by_______.” There is a web site “wrappedinsupport. blogspot.com” which provides more information. The site also includes interesting stories about this project. The Utah State Extension Service will hold their monthly “Festive Friday” Oct. 17, from noon to 1 p.m., upstairs in the courthouse.
