Naragon of Elkhart, Amy Arnett and friends Shannon and Shelly, of Indianapolis, and Dorothy Naragon. A large crowd attended the concert Sunday evening at the Church of Christ when “The Impacts’’ from Louisville, Kentucky, put on a wonderful concert and doing a wonderful work for the Lord. Scott Lucas is the son-in-law of the Richmonds. We wish them well and safe traveling. It was a fun evening Sunday from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. when the residents got to pass out candy to the little trick or treaters at Miller’s Merry Manor Nursing Home. There were lots of cute kiddies, some as pumpkins, ghosts, brides, lots of clowns and even a Christmas tree. They sure went home with their pumpkins and sacks well filled and the residents were ready to eat supper when 5:00 came as they were hungry. Many secret sweethearts were very surprised when they found out last Wednesday evening at the Church of Christ. All enjoyed a delicious dinner prepared by their secret sweethearts and they all got to eat with them. After the fellowship at the dinner table all went into the sanctuary where Ron Peterson acknowledged all the secret sweethearts and then turned the program over to Stan Hullah, minister of the Etna Green Church of Christ. He really kept us guessing about what old songs he was playing on his guitar and clarinet and then had a sing along. It was a fun evening and now we will all get new secret sweethearts for the coming year. Evan Williams, son of Jay and Kari Williams, of Crete, Illinois, spent the past week with his grandparents Travis and Joan Holmes while his parents were on a trip. Well, as you all know October has come and gone as today is the last day and it's Halloween. And would you believe its raining. Now I can’t rake leaves today and I hope it quits before the trick or treaters take over the town as they always do, but it’s a lot of fun to have them come ringing my door bell, so happy Halloween everybody. Theda Carlson, of South Bend, spent the weekend with Gladys Sheneman on Saturday. They enjoyed a drive through Potato Creek State Park and stopping at the Nature Center and watching a

very interesting film on attracting birds to your home. I didn’t know there were so many different kinds of birds. I learned how to attract the little hummingbirds to my feeder as I really like to watch them. We then attended Dale and Margie Knepp’s 50th wedding anniversary open house and met lots of friends there. I was especially glad to see Harry Kane, of Bremen, our old neighbors when we lived in the park area. We then called on Clell and Marion Fouts, our good friends. From there on to Welco for a bite to eat before returning home. What a day. Mr. and Mrs. Dale Naragon, of Columbia City, visited Mr. and Mrs. Dale Naragon and Dorothy Naragon on Sunday. Congratulations also goes to Mr. and Mrs. Ted Dudeck on their 55th wedding anniversary. I remember back when we sold fryers to Ted when he had a restaurant here in North Liberty and then over at New Carlisle. Those were the days, 1 would sure hate to dress chickens today. Yes, 1 know you have fed a lot of people and made a lot of people happy in your restaurants. So best wishes from all your friends.
