North Liberty; Mr. and Mrs. Ray Carbiener, Mishawaka and Mr. and Mrs. Ray Hook, Niles, Mich., spent four days in Northfield, Minnesota visiting with Mr. and Mrs. Boyd Myers, Lyle Myers and family and Paul Myers and family at Lake City, Minnesota. Twenty -four graduates, along with their spouses, met at the Church of Christ on Saturday afternoon for their 50th year reunion of the Gass of 1941 of North Liberty High School. They came from near and far, Florida, Texas, lowa, Tennessee, Michigan, Canada and the North Liberty area. There were 45 graduated in the old North Liberty High School (now gone) in 1941, thirteen are now deceased. They took pictures and called their senior class sponsor, Carmen (Parker) Fetters, in Jacksonville, Florida, and all said hello which really surprised her. Their vice-president, Jeanette Jackson, and their valedictorian were both presented corsages of silver and blue, their class colors, made by Sue’s Flower Shoppe. Their class mottion was “Out of the harbor and into the deep.” They all received a 50th year anniversary book compiled by Alice Quigley of

Mishawaka. Refreshments were enjoyed all afternoon from a beautifully decorated blue and silver table. After departing, they all attended the North Liberty and Green Alumni dinner and program held at the Holy Family Church with about 500 attending. Daisy Doan is slowly improving in St. Joseph Medical Center after suffering a heart attack recently. Please remember her. Bill and Ruth Bowman and Margie Trobaugh arrived from Florida this past week to spend some time with their relatives and friends. It was great to see them back in North Liberty as they now live in Florida. Many of you will remember Bob Knowlton, son of the late Harley and Thelma Knowlton, of Riley Road. Bob has been ministering for the past fifteen years and is now serving a church in Bloomington, 111. where he lives along with his wife, Rose and family. On Sunday morning, at the Church of Christ, he delivered the message and it was great to have the privilege of hearing him once again. He has come a long way since he preached his first sermon, which was very short, fifteen years ago. Francis Slattery, who is now a resident of Miller's Merry Manor in Walkerton, was surprised Saturday afternoon when her friends arrived to help her celebrate her 95th birthday. Those present were her sister Martha McCrosky, Iva Pommert, Pearl Newcomb, Aletha Croy, Mae McDaniel and Gladys Sheneman. James Culp, of Lakeville, a good friend, called to wish her a happy birthday. A lovely birthday cake, made by Donna Beasley, ice cream and punch was served. Janet Stombaugh and Mae Albright also attended the party. Francis received many lovely cards and gifts. Sorry to report, North Liberty has lost another senior citizen this week, Howard Loucks. Our sympathy goes to his wife, Helen and family.

Many of you know Janet Stombaugh, of North Liberty, now a resident at the nursing home in Walkerton. She was thrilled Saturday evening when she got to attend the North Liberty Alumni Banquet and join her 1953 graduting class. It was all made possible

by some wonderful friends, namely Myrna Stull, Imogean Smith, Jane Pittman and Rita Freese, from Valparaiso. She will never forget that night as so many were so happy to see her and talk to her once again about their school days. Janet really brightens up the nursing home with her friendly smile and is always so cheerful and thankful for everything. If you need a bicycle or one repaired, or your sweeper repaired, Bob Balsley is the man to call. He had bicycles to sell and is busy repairing many for others at the present. So give him a call if you need a repair job. Larry and Shirley McDaniel, of Mountain Top, Pennsylvania, arrived at the home of his mother, Audrey Solmos, on Sunday after spending Saturday night with Shirley’s sister, Sue. in Ohio. Other callers Sunday were Sue, Jennifer and Joseph Solmos, of Indianapolis. Larry and Shirley left on Monday for Lincoln, Nebraska, where they will be moving. I am happy to report that Todd Sheneman, son of John and Gloria Sheneman, of New Road, returned home Saturday from Saudia Arabia where he has been serving our country for the past several months. He arrived at the home of his wife Penny’s parents at Elberfeld. Indiana, and his mother Gloria met them there and his children, Andrew and Katrina, and brought them home with her for a short visit. Todd is re-enlisting and he and his family will be going to Germany. Welcome home Todd from all your relatives and friends. Evelyn (Amm) Banks, of Dallas, Texas, came to attend the North Liberty Alumni Banquet and be with her graduating class of 40 years ago. Her sister, Erma, also attended the banquet with her. They were the daughters of Mr. and Mrs Sterling Amm. Robert and Pauline Powers and Gladys Sheneman enjoyed dinner Sunday at the Hollywood Restaurant on Road 30 near Hamlet and then stopped at Larry’s Nursery on Walnut Road on the way home. He has a beautiful nursery of trees, shrubs, evergreens and perennials. If you are in need of any of these things drop by and you will be amazed at the beauty, as you walk through his nursery. 1 just received word that North Liberty has lost another resident, Ray Whitmer, who sometime ago moved to a new home on Williams Street. So our sympathy goes to his family. Kari Williams, of Fiossmor, Illinois, spent the weekend with her parents, Travis and Joan Holmes, and attended the alumni on Saturday evening.
