Auburn family lends a hand

Members of the Van der Werff family (from L to R: Josephine, Bert, Geoffrey, Greg, Malyssa and friend Kelsey Swager) met with the guest families at the Ronald McDonald House of Central New York and donated their time and energy to a Saturday afternoon of housekeeping. They prepared a delicious dinner that was enjoyed by all of the guests at the House. The Van der Werffs stopped by the playroom before their departure for a group photo with “Ronald.”
