member her in your prayers. I received word that Larmon Kaser is still in a coma in LaPorte Hospital so please remember him and his family. Jim and Sheryl (Bauman) Schaap of Edwardsburg, Michigan, entertained about 75 guests Saturday afternoon in honor of their son Darwin, who graduated. Those from North Liberty who attended were his grandparents who are here visiting from Florida, Bill and Ruth Bauman; Carl and Barb Zimmerle and their two sons, Barry and Gary and families; Gladys Shafer; Ethel Rauen; Bill and Mary Hartman; Jim and Cathy Day and family; Betty and Bob Hoyland; Larry and Mary Lee Stull, of South Bend; and Frank and Lorie Sailer and family, of Brownsburg, Indiana. Refreshments were served and he received a lot of cards and gifts. Steve and Lisa Morris and family and Becky and Bill Snyder and family spent the weekend at the Morris cabin in Michigan. House guests of Art and Joan Schmeltz the past few days were Paul and Violet Kolmer, of Fairfield Glade, Tennessee, Evelyn Mark, of Niles, Michigan, and Richard and Joanne Cogswell, of Bloomington, Illinois. They attended the Walkerton High School Alumni and it was also Violet’s 50th year class reunion. They all got to see many classmates and enjoyed the evening of fellowship.

Joan Schmeltz lost her brother this past week, Jack Cogswell, only 72, a former resident of North Liberty. Our sympathy goes to his family. Next Sunday there are a lot of open houses scheduled for the graduates of a lot of schools in the area. I have received two from John Glenn graduates and one from Plymouth High School, so I will have a busy Sunday afternoon going to open houses. Please let me know about your open house. Richard and Imogene Saville, of Lakeville, are celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary with a reception given by their children and grandchildren on Sunday, June 4th from 2:00 to 5:00 p.m. at the First United Methodist Church in Lakeville. So congratulations and best wishes from all your relatives and friends. They were members of the Tabor Church when I attended there. Contratulations to Christian L. Mattix, grandson of Thelma Hills, of the Hillside Apartments here in North Liberty. He is also the son of Paul and Gail Mattix, of North Liberty. He will be the salutatorian at the graduation of his class of 108 students at the John Glenn High School gym next Sunday afternoon on June 4th at 2:00 p.m. Many of you will remember Fannie Rupel, formerly of the Walkerton area, who passed away Saturday at the Hubbard Hill Estates at Elkhart. She was Fannie Nash till she married Keith Rupel. Her funeral is Wednesday at Tyner Church. Our sympathy goes to her family. In our modem society, kids have missed the inconvenience of walking to school on muddy roads, sleeping in a bedroom without any heat in the winter, taking a weekly bath on Saturday night in a wooden tub in the kitchen, shelling com for chickens by hand, sitting in a twoholer in sub zero weather, discovering head lice and knowing the only help was coal oil and the severe use of a fine comb, going with the family on a Sunday afternoon drive when a tire blows out and there is no inner tube in the tool box on the running board and how about sleeping on the floor in front of an open door in summer, when the heat in the upstairs bedroom is unbearable. Yes, the kids are so fortunate today that they have so many modem conveniences including air conditioning that we didn’t have when we were growing up and we never had time to get bored either. Sunday evening luncheon guests of Tammy Stull and family were Gene and Norma Patrick, Carol Holderbaum and Gladys Sheneman. The Olive Branch United Brethren Church, with their pastor Don Dennie, will be holding the 8:30 a.m. Sunday morning service out at Potato Creek State Park for the campers at Peppermint Hill. Anyone is welcome. The campgrounds were full this weekend. Well, Memorial Day has come and gone, and what a day. A large crowd turned out to hear and see the John Glenn High School Band, veterans and boy scouts march to the cemetery and where the North Liberty American Legion held their annual Memorial Day program with Rev. Charles Richmond as speaker for the special service. The rain did hold off until the service was over and then it really DUAN^DRAKE’S TREE SERVICE TREE REMOVAL TREE TRIMMING STUMP REMOVAL Estimates Phone (219) 936-6546 Plymouth
