TOLEDO -- How many old cell phones do you have buried in a junk drawer? I found four just last night, in one drawer. Since they are really no use to you, why not donate them for a great cause?

Coyle Funeral Home and Cremation Services is taking your outdated cell phone and turning it in to calling cards for Soldiers.

Operation "Cell Phones For Soldiers" will take the old phones, recycle them and take the proceeds to purchase the calling cards for our troops so they can stay connected with their families.

Coyle Funeral Home and Cremation Services set a goal to collect 2,000 used cell phones by mid-March. Currently they have collected over 1,500 and this is where you come in.

Find that old cell phone and drop it off at Coyle Monday through Friday between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. This is an easy way to honor and pay tribute to the men and women who are currently serving our great county.

Coyle Funeral Home and Cremation Services are located at 1770 S. Reynolds Road in Toledo.
