[Magdalen] Food for kids while schools are closed

[Mahoney, W. Michael]

Our school system will be sending food home to the kids.  I am not sure how
but we were asked to contribute tote bags to help with packaging.  I
delivered eleven of them yesterday.  There was a lot of history, some
decades old, in those bags!
