DEAR SUN SPOTS: Any individual, family or soup kitchen interested in receiving a freshly harvested, field-dressed Maine deer, please contact me at 375-4718. You must process and package the animal yourself. — Steve, Sabattus

ANSWER: Sun Spots predicts you will be overwhelmed with responses to your generous offer.

DEAR SUN SPOTS: Hopefully someone will be able to help me find a 2010 nickel. As each of my great-grandchildren is born, I make up a set of coins in their birth year. The newest, born in August, has not received his set, as I cannot find the nickel.

Republic Jewelry and Coin, the banks, stores, do not have any. I sure would appreciate it if someone would sell me one.

Also, I know there are ladies who make mittens, etc., out of fleece and yarn. I have three pieces of fleece, one-and-a-half yards each, of navy, black and green, and a few skeins of yarn to donate. Thanks for your help. — Jan, Turner, 225-3974

DEAR SUN SPOTS: I would like to tell the ladies who were asking about counted cross-stitch. I have patterns, several floss and material of counted cross-stitch. They can call me at 777-3595. If I’m not home, they can leave a message on my answering machine. Thank you. — Anita Fortier, Lewiston

DEAR SUN SPOTS: I have a number of craft items to donate to a fundraiser. If interested, please call 225-3861. — No Name, No Town

DEAR SUN SPOTS: I read your Oct. 8 column regarding stamp collection or accumulations. I am an active stamp collector and have been for years.

I have all the catalogs for stamps, either foreign or U.S. My phone number is 353-2848. I would be more than happy to help people find the book value (and realistic value) of their stamps.

If any local collectors would be interested in setting up stamp/coin clubs, please let me know. Thank you. — John N. Moulton, Lisbon Falls

DEAR SUN SPOTS: For the person looking for words to “Moonlight and Roses”:

Moonlight and roses bring wonderful memories of you

My heart reposes in beautiful thoughts so true

June light discloses loves golden dream sparkling anew

Moonlight and roses bring memories of you

When chapel bells are ringing

I hear sweet voices singing

tis then I hear your call

tis then my heart grows fonder

All through my life I wonder with thoughts of you dear, always of you dear

Moonlight and roses bring wonderful memories of you

My heart reposes in beautiful thoughts so true

June light discloses loves golden dream sparkling anew

Moonlight and roses bring memories of you

— Marcella, Auburn

DEAR SUN SPOTS: In response to D.B. Sylvester, Oct. 9, who was looking for someone who makes cribbage boards. I make cribbage boards of my own design (fish and ducks on stands are one example). Layaways are available.
