Marla Scofield has been a familiar face to those who stop at Palisades Oil, always willing to chat with customers and give out the daily specials. At the beginning of February, Marla suffered a stroke.
She survived thanks to the quick thinking of Garretson community member Ken Leedy, who noticed her symptoms and got help. She has been hospitalized since, and while she's on the road to recovery, it will be a long one.
A meat raffle is being held at Palisades Oil Stop n Shop to help with medical bills, as well as a fund jar and a GoFundMe. Tickets for the meat raffle are $25 each and are being sold until March 4. The winner will receive a quarter beef (263 pounds). Tickets can be purchased (cash only) at Palisades Oil.
The GoFundMe can be found at https://gofund.me/42a366e1.
