NORTH LIBERTY NEWS By Gladys Sheneman Harold Rust, of Greenfield, spent Tuesday and Wednesday with friends. On Wednesday morning Louise Grenert, Gladys Sheneman and Clell and Marion Fouts, along with Harold, all enjoyed breakfast together at Nancee’s new restaurant in North Liberty. The food was delicious. If you still haven’t visited our friendly restaurant yet, be sure and make it a point to do so. Many of you remember Daisy Doan, who had a gift shop in town. Her and her husband, Kenny, recently moved from Rochester back to North Liberty. I just received word that Daisy had a heart attack and is in St. Joe Medical Center, Room 383 in the cardiac unit. She had the heart attack last Thursday evening. A large crowd attended the Nursery School program at the Church of Christ Wednesday evening when 31 little boys and girls marched in, all dressed up with their little graduating hats on. They really sang all their cute little songs with their teachers Terry Stewart and Bev Lung leading them. Amanda Brodzinski gave the welcome. A slide presentation was given of all the activities and showed the firemen visiting the school and the trip out to Eberly’s Orchard and other interesting things they had done during the year. They even baked cookies. Jim Kobold, school board member, presented them with their diplomas and they told of their future ambitions. It was an enjoyable evening for not only the little graduates, but for their parents, grandparents and great as well. Closing prayer was given by Charles Richmond, minister. Correction — Sorry, I goofed, but Lovey and Guy Welsh were not members of the Sumption Prairie Church, but they were members of the Maple Grove Church and that’s where the Country Store is held the last of October every year. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Whitmer attended their granddaughter-in-law, Melissa Garwood, graduation Sunday at Valparaiso University. She graduated with high honors in her nursing as an R.N. They enjoyed a cookout on Memorial Day at their daughter’s, Donna and Carl Garwood, in LaPorte. At this date, Jim Reed is much improved and will be in the hospital for a few more weeks. I’m sure he would enjoy mail from friends. His address is James R. Reed, Veteran’s Hospital, 7 South, Room 721, 13,000 Bruce B. Down Blvd., Tampa, Florida 33612.

Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Lemert, of Plymouth; Mable Zehner, of Koontz Lake; and Gladys Sheneman spent Tuesday with Helen (Bolenbauch) Newcomer in her new apartment in the Georgetown Apartments. The four girls all graduated together 59 years ago from Tyner High School. They all enjoyed dinner together at Bob Evans Restaurant in Roseland. Her new address is 4416 Queens Row, Georgetown Apt. A, South Bend 46637. I’m sure she would be glad to hear from all her many friends around Tyner and Teegarden. Fourteen graduates were honored Sunday morning at the Church of Christ and given a gift. They wore their caps and gowns. They were Erik Ebersole, Brandy Napier, Matt Schoff, David Ross, Kain Lentine, Tec Lentine, Loren Knowlton, Brett Eastburn, Jennifer Withey, Jodie Kusmicz, LaDora Kronk, Tim Clark, Stephanie Aldrich and Mark Holmquist. They all have great expectations and we all hope they come true as they look forward to the future. “Congratulations”. There were many open houses in the area Sunday evening and Monday for a lot of the John Glenn graduates. The North Liberty Church of Christ will hold the 8:30 a.m. Morning Worship Service at Peppermint Hill Picnic Shelter at Potato Creek State Park. You are welcome to attend. Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Dan Roser on their 63rd wedding anniversary Sunday, May 26. Mrs. Roser had the misfortune of falling on her back step Saturday but luckily she didn’t break any bones, but she didn’t feel much like celebrating Sunday. Please remember her. The strawberries are ripening now and I and some friends are going to pick some Tuesday morning so will end my news for this week. New Naturalist Appointed At Potato Creek Potato Creek State Park manager Steve Craig announced that Tim Cordell will take over the naturalist duties at Potato Creek State Park effective June 2, 1991. Cordell is being reassigned to Potato Creek from Spring Mill State Park in southern Indiana. He will fill the vacancy left when John Schaust resigned as naturalist earlier this year to take a position in Cleveland, Ohio. Cordell has worked for the Indiana State Parks since 1978. He served two years as seasonal naturalist at Potato Creek in 1978 and 1979. He then worked as the full-time naturalist at McCormick’s Creek State Park from 1980 until 1985, and at Spring Mill from 1985 until the present. Cordell will be moving to the South

Bend area with his wife, Rosanne, and two daughters in late May.
