What a nice way to be together and celebrate Corrie’s life. She was always there to help others. She will be missed very much.
She was the sweetest person. I looked forward to seeing her every time I pulled into the pantry.
We are needing a Driver for Wed and Tues to deliver food to those in need. Some of our drivers have had changes in jobs and no longer have the time to do them. Pick up is between noon and 2 at the pantry and most routes take about an hourish. Please PM, Email ( pantry279@yahoo.com ) or call ( 812-606-1524 )
Saturday March 25 at 4pm, we will be having a Pot Luck dinner for anyone wishing to join us in remembrance of Corrie. It will be held at Trinity Lutheran, home of the Pantry 279. This is meant to be an informal and joyful remembrance of a wonderful person and amazing member of our team and community whom passed away 2 weeks ago. If you can bring food or drink, please do, if not, no problem! We'd just love to have you and your memories!
I will come. Back from my trip on the 22nd.
Last summer, a wonderful person donated about 10 cases of Instant Ink Printer paper. We have been surviving off all of these months, but are now on our last pack. We print A LOT, I wish we didn't have to have all of this paperwork and such, but we do. If anyone has or would lke to donate some plain white, regular size printer paper, we would be so thankful! Thank you!!
I will add a couple of packs to my next Sam’s Club pick up and drop by when I get a chance. 😘
If this will work, I will send you 10 of these from Amazon. Thanks for providing an address where they can be delivered. HP Printer Paper | 8.5x11 Paper |Office 20 lb | 1 Ream - 500 Sheets | 92 Bright | Made in USA - FSC Certified | 112150R a.co/d/9G9GZuv

With a heavy heart, I am posting to inform you all that Corrie Scott, the Pastor's wife, and long time volunteer at the Pantry, sadly passed away last Thursday morning. I didn't post for a while as it came as such a blow to all of us, and out of respect to the family. Corrie was our friendly greeter that put the number of households on the cars, chatted with everyone, passed out helpful information to those who need it , and was just a great friend to literally EVERYONE who came to the Pantry 279.
She came to us when Pastor started with Trinity Lutheran in 2017, but became a full time volunteer when the Covid-19 lock downs happened in 2020. She worked tirelessly throughout the pandemic and beyond to help make sure the pantry continued on. She was always there as a spunky cheerleader when any of us were down, or just thought we were too tired to continue. She was a shoulder to cry on when we were so stressed and didn't see how we were ever going to keep going at this pace. I can't tell you how many times she stayed after to offer a listening ear and encouragement to me. She was the same with any guest who came to the pantry! No matter what your problem was or stressor, she was there to listen, offer a hug, and see if there was a program that might help you out. Everyone LOVED Corrie! And she has been like this all of her life. Some people are born to help others, help the world, that's Corrie. She has been all over the world helping in many communities, including in Africa and Japan. She felt her purpose here was to help others, and she did a fabulous job!
A month ago, Corrie disappeared from the pantry after breaking her arm on a walk. Many have been asking after her. A couple of weeks after the bad break, she suffered a diabetic set back and a heart attack. Last week, everyone thought she'd be back home in a week or so, but sadly, this was not to be, and she suffered Liver and kidney failure, and passed to the next stage in life.
Her celebration of Life will be held at Faith Lutheran Church Sat March 11 at 2pm, ALL are welcome. We will be having a memorial dinner for anyone pantry, volunteers, guests, supporters, anyone who wants to just have a nice pitch in meal and remember Corrie. This will be announced when we get a firmer date.
Corrie is and will be greatly missed by all.
I’m so sorry for the loss of such an exemplary servant. May her memory be a blessing.
She was an awesome person and always so friendly and caring. I will think of her often. Heaven has another angel. Thank you for sharing your story. 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Bless her I always looked forward to seeing her she was extra nice I loved talking to her she was very special 🙏🙏😇
I'm rereading this today and want to make sure I have it correct: Those of us who knew Corrie through the Pantry will be sharing a meal together to remember her at a future date, not today, correct? Cindy Chavez Felicia Nunn
So sorry to hear this. She was so nice and made me smile everytime I talked to her. She will be missed.❤️🙏❤️
I’m so sorry to hear this.
This shot is not very clear, but if this is the woman I am thinking of, this is so sad. She was always so kind and friendly, and it was evident she cared about people. I haven't been to the pantry in a while, so I would not have known she was missing. Hugs to all of you.
Wonderful spirit! One of God's angels!
She was a wonderful lady and she became. My friend never a cross word about anybody I've missed her lately and will never forget her

That's right! You can order your favorite Girl Scout Cookies from me online, all while helping my troop and I do great things in our community and beyond! Check it out.In our 7th cookie season together, we’ve ran into a snag! After selling their butts off and having two of the best booths they’ve EVER had, the girls have over 300 boxes of cookies left that we HAVE to sell 😓 knowing we’ve hounded everyone we know to buy more cookies, we’ve decided to honor the upcoming Girl Scout Week by donating our remaining boxes to Pantry 279, a food pantry started in 2015 by a group of Girl Scout Cadettes (just like my girls!). But!! We need your help because we are still responsible for the cost of the cookies. If you could spare some dollars by sponsoring a box, a few boxes, half a case, or a case to be donated, we would be so grateful!! Follow our troop link and select ‘Girl Delivery’ then enter the number of boxes you’d like to contribute in our available inventory. Our need is $1,926 in order to donate and provide 300 families with a box of cookies to brighten their day!
Shout out to Ellettsville Dominos AND IGA for getting us bags for today and rest of the week. Thank you!!!!
Do you still need bags? I have a lot.
Can we put them somewhere when you’re not open? I have a ton I could drop off
I have 2 big bags full in my car to bring you by Tuesday.
Who doesn't have a bunch of these laying around? Us, that's whom! If anyone would like to donate their clean, but used plastic grocery bags, we can use them!. Feel free to drop them off while we are here OR in the wooden donation boxes. Thank you!!!
