BABES DOWN THRU THE YEARS
Wayne County Schools Sign Up for BABES
Through the guidance of Genevieve Rakocy, director of the Retired Seniors Volunteers Program (RSVP) in Wayne County, the lives of thousands of retirees have been blessed during the past decade.
Of 30 Wayne County retirees trained to present BABES, one – Shirley Loving – the widow of a former school principal, became the “star” of a photo story by the Detroit News.
By courtesy of the News, these photographs by Duane E. Belanger communicate the essence of the mystique of BABES – the wonderous alchemy whereby gentle and caring people who have experienced their share of pain and pleasure pass on the messages of BABES… and get a great deal back.
Reaching Across Time
The tiny hand of a Loving School child reaches out to touch and to hold the hand of Shirley Loving, an RSVP “presenter” of the BABES program.
