Enjoys Shirl's Book On 'Press-N-Listen'


June Sorber is shown as she listens to Shirley Updyke’s book "Vision To Reality."

June Sorber, of Sorber Mountain, was a recent recipient of the “Press and Listen Project.” Her vision no longer allows her to read. The project includes a recording on a MP3 player of Shirley Updyke’s new book, “Vision to Realty.”

“It’s very, very interesting,” she said as she expressed thankfulness for the gift. WRGN’s Press and Listen Project is made possible by listeners contributing to cover the cost of the players and postage, etc. The amount is $30.00. Eight players have been distributed, thus far. One person returned hers so it could be sent to another sightless person. These are also being offered to those who prefer to listen rather than read the book, “Vision To Reality.” Contact WRGN at 1-800-245-3688.

Carol Kozak, of Wilkes Barre, told her tragic story on “Shirl and You” of how she became blind as a baby. “WRGN is such a blessing to me,” she said. She expressed her gratefulness to hear she would receive one of the “Press and Listen Projects.”
