Rye, wheat, white, multigrain - Charlott Porter has buttered them all, and then some. Charlott has been a faithful member of the First Parish Congregational Church of South Portland's Wayside Soup Kitchen team ever since she moved down from "The County" a decade ago.

The volunteers serve dinner to about 250 people at Wayside the first Saturday of each month and Charlott has been the steady hand behind the food counter, cheerfully slicing and buttering bread, filling and refilling bread baskets and getting desserts ready for the table servers.

Charlott says she's "just a 92-year-old "Aroostook girl" who likes to do what needs to get done" and has  never stopped being amazed each month when a small group of dedicated volunteers cooks and serves all those dinners (complete with an endless supply of buttered bread), within just a few hours.

"It gives you a feeling that you're doing something good," she says. It's a feeling she hopes others get a chance to experience.

In December, after 10 years and well over 10,000 slices of bread, Charlott retired her butter knife.

Thank you, Charlott!
