DANIEL ROEBUCK DELIVERS MEALS WITH HIS FATHER 

Bethlehem, PA 5/8/2019 – Meals on Wheels of the Greater Lehigh Valley had some excitement today as actor Daniel Roebuck stopped by to deliver meals with his father.

Roebuck was born in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, in 1963, and graduated from Bethlehem Catholic High School in Bethlehem in 1981.

Daniel’s dad, John, still lives in the Lehigh Valley and is a dedicated Meals on Wheels volunteer who has delivered every Wednesday for the past five years.

When Roebuck is back in town, he likes to give back by visiting the clients on his dad’s route and providing and smile along with two freshly prepared meals.
