Acts of Courage and Accessability A Rewarding Combination |

Rhonda Louise Flood with sister, Kharis E. Flood, daughters of Rodney & Donna (Jones) Flood |
are not always performed in such a way as to receive honors or medals. The act of pushing on into the public eye when one is severely diabled has to be faced in a daily way for that person's total life time. Even the strongest and bravest, happiest, and most pleasant personalities have days when they would just rather not put up with some of the impossible circumstances involved. The opening of a new ramp on the side of the library was a great thrill to Rhonda, since she was not able to have access to the building before this. The above photograph was in the local newspaper recording the event. (The Ponca City News, Ponca City, Oklahoma) Rhonda's grandmother, Wenona Medler Flood, was an active participant in stimulating the town's father's to bring this ramp about. Today the disabled are being allowed to come to the place of giving back to society. Forty years ago, when Rhonda was born, this was not so. A disabled person often contributes to a group simply by being present. They cause people to become more thoughtful as to their own wellness, counting their blessings and being thankful for what they have. |
