THIS IS THE FINAL NEWSLETTER
WHETHER YOU HANG AROUND HERE
OR HEAD NORTH .. HAVE A
SAFE & HEALTHY SUMMER!!
SEE YOU NEXT SEASON !!

Your chairperson Judy Nordquist and newsletter editor Mary Lou Benson made decision a couple days ago there would be no more Monday morning meetings or newsletters. Understanding the necessary requirement to have less than 10 at any activity .. editor understands completely.

HOWEVER, so many have asked for one more newsletter, I decided I’d do this last one…..maybe due to boredom?!!

Finishing up on financial report for the season. I heard books were audited & found to be in good order .. audited by Janie Maxwell & Ron Zoeller.

Here’s a few other things I’ve been told ..

Our favorite Uber driver Larry Pierstorff tells me he never played Shuffleboard until just last week .. and he WON!!! So I believe he wanted his name in print. CONGRATS, LARRY!!

March 25 is the 4th Wed. of March. Dean & Millie Ricke met up with me in the HEB line yesterday & told me there will be NO PARK PIZZA PARTY THIS WEEK! Maybe the door is locked? Anyway, that’s over for this season.

When I stopped in the pool hall this morning, Al Lenius told me he is STILL LOSING at cards, no matter what he is playing! There were a couple at his table of 4 who disagreed.

Come out Mondays to play Thirty One .. 7 p.m. Some call this “Blitz” .. come anyway.

TIC on Wed. night & Dummy Rummy on Sat. morning continues by spreading folks apart throughout the hall, poker room, etc. to adhere to the less than 10 rule.

So far Golf continues “wherever” they are allowed!

I’ve heard that group who plays Hucklebuck will continue with their fun whenever they can find a “spare night” to play! I THINK we will have plenty of “spare nights” !!

As far as I know .. Bobby Gabbert is still in Valley Baptist Hospital .. no visitors allowed, of course, due to coronavirus situation.

Talked to Juanita Fisher this morning who was taken by ambulance to the hospital last Wednesday. She came home Thursday & will be undergoing more heart tests.

Some may remember former resident Marge Whited who passed away recently. Her obit is posted at hall.

All the following folks apparently wanted to see their name in a newsletter one more time ..

Can’t close without at least a couple of “wise cracks” !!

Do you know what happens if you pour scalding water down a rabbit hole? You get hot cross bunnies.


A couple of healthful hints for you ..

Why are soldiers so tired on April first? Because they have just completed a 31 day March.

What do you call the sanctuary for sick salad dressing? The Mayo Clinic.

“In a changing world, one thing is always certain.

I’ll end up in the check out lane that comes to a standstill.”


“If you can’t thank God for what you have,

thank Him for what you have escaped.”
“When you can laugh at yourself,
you’re never at a loss for humor.”

GOD WILLING .. SEE YOU IN THE FALL .. OR DOWN THE STREET. WE MAY BE IN RVE UNTIL THEN!
