GEORGE DEPENDS ON YOU FOR MEALS
train, and grabbed some tools. Pretending to work on
the train by checking the wheels, he exchanged words
with a few Germans who stopped by, then snuck back
on the train and changed into his civilian clothes for
the remainder of the trip.
Now 92 years old, George Sass has faced challenges
in his life that most of us can only imagine. Born in
Poland, he met his future wife at the age of 15 during
a local Sunday dance. While luck was not on their side
for many years, fate would bring them back together.
George was a hiking guide for tourists in the Pieniny
mountain range until he joined the English Army in
September of 1939. In November, a letter from his
mother shared the unfortunate news that his sister
had been killed when German’s bombed the train she
was riding to college. He was granted a few days of
leave to help his mother grieve and was expected to
return to England for deployment but, upon arriving
in Poland, the Germans arrested him.
George was transported to Munich, where he spent
about two years working 10 hour shifts at the BMW
factory, which at that time was making engines for
German airplanes. He describes life in the barracks
as “harsh, to say the least,” with one blanket, one set of
clothes, wood and straw for a bed, a dish and a spoon.
“Coffee” was made from coal, soup was one piece of
beef in water, and there was no dinner.
An underground society helped him escape to
Vienna, where he boarded a train to Warsaw. He
spoke fluent German and was told the train was on a
non-stop run, but unfortunately that wasn’t the case.
At the German border, about to be discovered for
lack of proper papers, George thought on his feet. He
quickly changed into his labor clothes, snuck off the
A kind woman and her daughter who were also on the
train offered him a room in their home for two years,
as he knew no one in Warsaw, but when the Germans
invaded that town he was arrested and shipped back
to Germany to labor at Magdeburg. This time, he
was selected to be an entertainer by joining a group
of other displaced persons to play music. George’s
instrument was the musical saw, and his group was
transported around to various camps to entertain the
prisoners. He even remembers being filmed, as the
Germans intended to share the video with the Red
Cross to demonstrate their kind treatment of all in
captivity.
His trip to entertain at Osterweddingen, just seven
miles away from his own camp, brought more joy than
he had felt in years. He immediately recognized his
sweetheart, Halina, in the crowd! After not knowing
whether she was dead or alive for so long, he vowed
to not lose her again. Some sneaking out, along with
bribes of tobacco, allowed him to see Halina once a
week. She returned the favor of a visit on Christmas
Day in 1944, bringing along a sack filled with at least
20 pounds of beef for George and his friends. George
says, “I couldn’t believe she carried it the whole seven
miles in the snow for me!”
Of course, 1945 brought liberation and joy, as well
as many tough decisions. George and Halina agreed
that they would not return to Poland, instead applying
to live in Brazil, Venezuela, New Zealand, France or
the United States. They waited for five years, finally
receiving word that there was a sponsor for them in
America. They got married, went to the American
consul to accept the sponsorship, and boarded an Air
Force plane with their young son, Jersy.
In the United States, they quickly got on their own two
feet with an apartment in Patterson, NJ, and a variety
of different jobs—belt buckle maker, gun engraver,
nylon factory worker, YMCA leader, and chimney
sweep—for George. He and Halina enjoyed weekly
walks on Sundays and going to the movies, and they
had a second son, Richard, a few years after arriving
in the U.S. Both sons grew up to serve in the military
during the Korean War and gave Halina and George
three grandchildren to enjoy.
George retired in 1990 and he and Halina moved
to a beautiful home on James Island. He turned the
garage into a workshop where he built clocks and he
also kept up with his hobby of painting. They made
quick friends with their neighbors, who became
like a second family to them. Then, a few years later,
Halina was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. After
going through so much together, George remained
committed to being her caretaker.
In 2006, it became clear that Halina needed additional
care, so she moved into a nursing home in Mount
Pleasant. Not wanting to live in their home alone,
George sold it and moved into a condo so that he
would not be so far away from his wife.
One of the workers, concerned about his ability to
access a good meal, referred him to East Cooper Meals
on Wheels. He has bad vision in one eye, significant
hearing loss, suffers from anemia, and sometimes
struggles with his balance. He also lives off of Social
Security, and with the expenses of health insurance
and utilities, he didn’t have the money to go out to eat
or buy the most nutritious meals.
The daily meals kept him strong enough to visit with
Halina until she passed away last year. With his sons
living far away and his closest friend living on James
Island, the meals are more important now than ever.
After all he’s been through George says, “I’m making
do with life these days, and Meals on Wheels makes
my life a little better. I really enjoy getting to spend
some time each day talking to the nice people who
bring my meals.”
WILLIAM & DEBORAH WROTE TO SAY THANK YOU
Since the summer of 2008, the O’Connells have been
counting on Meals on Wheels for their daily lunch. William
and Deborah live in a subdivision on Highway 41 and, at
87 and 85 years of age respectively, they couldn’t be more
grateful for the meals that our volunteers deliver each day.
Cooking and grocery shopping may not be easy for them,
but they frequently take the time to write a note of thanks,
which shows just how much your support means to them.

A Season of Giving
You brought so much joy to our recipients
during the holidays. With special meals for
Thanksgiving and Christmas, as well as gifts
of warmth and cards filled with the season’s
greetings, the homebound in our community
were able to share in the joy of the holidays.
In fact, Peg, a 79-year-old recipient on Route
C, wrote to say, “For all you have done for me,
I would just like to say thank you. The robe is
beautiful and I know I will really enjoy it.”
We are especially grateful to the following
community partners who donated gifts for our
recipients:
All Saints Lutheran Church
Christ Our King Church

1st Oyster Roast Fun!
On October 27th, we hosted our first-ever
oyster roast on Goldbug Island. Around 200
people joined us for bivalves from The Noisy
Oyster, a chili throwdown, live music from
Awendaw Green musicians, and a pictureperfect afternoon. Thank you to the East
Cooper Outboard Motor Club for sharing their
spectacular views with us.
Around 200 people joined us on Goldbug Island
for our first-ever oyster roast!
Volunteers of all ages joined us on December 23rd to
pack and deliver special meals for Christmas.
Once again, Cub Scout Pack 470, along with
Boy Scout Troops 59 and 529, collected food
for our pantry and the pantry at ECCO
during the Mount Pleasant Christmas parade.
Our Chili Throwdown featured Betsy Dross, one
of our dedicated volunteers, and Brannon Florie,
owner and executive chef of The Granary.
For the third year in a row, employees from
East Cooper Medical Center collected gifts for
our recipients.

2013 ANNUAL REPORT
Letter from the President
L
ooking back at 2013, the one word we heard most often was change. We know
that 10,000 people are turning 65 every single day. We know that people are
living longer and they want to remain in their own homes. We know that 8.8
million of our nation’s elderly struggle with hunger.
At our national Meals on Wheels conference in August, Meals on Wheels Association
of America President/CEO Ellie Hollander said, “We can’t solve tomorrow’s problems
with today’s tools.” We know we must look to the future and ask ourselves what this
450 Recipients F
community will need from East Cooper Meals on Wheels.
ed a Nutritious M
Amid all this change, our focus remains the same – to deliver a nutritious meal to those
who cannot drive themselves to the grocery store or stand at the stove long enough to
cook their own meal. We will continue to provide the daily visits, which mean so much
to our recipients, and also continue to partner with other organizations to meet the
eal
needs that extend beyond our mission. Your support for East Cooper Meals on Wheels
allows us to serve people of all ages and incomes so they don’t have to worry about
where their next meal will come from.
In 2014, we’ll continue to serve our current recipients while assessing our current
operations and explore what it will take to meet the needs of our homebound neighbors
in the years to come. Because of you, we’re ready and able to serve the next person who
calls on us for help this year.
Thank you.
Best regards,

East Cooper Meals On Wheels
N i b b l es
& Nods
The community goes above and beyond in its support of East Cooper
Meals on Wheels, with many people choosing to donate goods and
services in support of our mission. Since September, 92 individuals, and
87 organizations and businesses have contributed in-kind support valued
at $45,370. We are especially grateful to Christ Church for preparing,
packing and donating all of our weekend meals, as well as to Noisy Oyster
Seafood Restaurant for preparing and donating a meal for our recipients
once a month. In addition, the following community partners donated at
least $200 in food items:
Charleston County Aviation Authority
Costco Wholesale
Createspace
Great Harvest Bread Company
Kudzu Bakery
Winter/Spring 2014
Volunteers
O F T H E QUA RT E R
3rd Quarter: Dave & Margaret Graham
This couple chose to retire in Mount Pleasant and, though they have only
been volunteering with us for a year, they have already made a significant
impact at Meals on Wheels. They drive Route G every Thursday and even
serve as substitutes when we really need them. They helped us procure
numerous auction items for our 2013 gala, and they have both been trained
to serve as ambassadors at events throughout the community. Dave even
showed off his golf skills at our annual tournament this year, while Margaret
helped out as a volunteer at the event. An especially big thank you to Roland
and June Richard, their neighbors and fellow volunteers, for encouraging
them to become part of the Meals on Wheels family.
Opal Restaurant & Bar
Operation Freebird
St. Vincent de Paul Society
Starbucks
Stella Maris Catholic Church
The Palms of Mount Pleasant
Additional behind-the-scenes support was provided by the following
community partners:
Awareness: Charleston Home Builders Association
Grocery Bags: Publix—Queensborough, Whole Foods Market
Pet Food: Banfield Pet Hospital, Charleston Dog Training Club
Water Cooler: Appalachian Springs Bottled Water
What Will Your Legacy Be?
4th Quarter: Eddie Truesdale
Eddie Truesdale has been a supporter of East Cooper Meals on Wheels since
2004. Though he had to take some time off from volunteering for a few
years, he jumped back in with both feet in August! He makes time in his
work schedule to drive Route B every Tuesday. He also played in our golf
tournament in September and volunteered at our oyster roast in October.
On Thanksgiving Day, Eddie allowed the media to follow him on his route,
which showed everyone in the Lowcountry just how important Meals on
Wheels is to those we serve. Recently, he was the first to tell us about the
rolling blackouts occurring due to the extreme cold, and he asked about
taking some of our utility blankets along his delivery route in case anyone
was in need. Eddie truly has gone the extra mile in the short time that he's
been back.

South Carolina ranks 10th in the nation for seniors at risk of hunger.
Hunger can happen to anyone when circumstances prevent them from driving
to the grocery store or standing at the stove long enough to cook a meal. By
remembering East Cooper Meals on Wheels in your will, or as a beneficiary of
your insurance or pension plan, you’ll be sustaining our efforts to fight hunger in
our community for years to come. A meal—and so much more—that’s what your
legacy will be. Those seeking to support our mission can also ask that memorials
be made to East Cooper Meals on Wheels following their passing.
Call George Roberts at (843) 881-9350 for more information.
