Lunch Bunch Dec. 2015

THANK YOU

Many thanks to those who contributed to the success of our December luncheon.

Tina Stamas Fote made the arrangements and handled reservations. It isn't easy when the Internet doesn't cooperate and the email provider collapses. It also isn't easy when the facility does't honor it's promise of a private room. She eventually got everything worked out and we had a wonderful time, excellent food, and interesting conversations.

Audrey Hahn Wion brought good-smelling gifts for the ladies.

Sue Lovely gathered donations for CARE House from classmates who could not attend the luncheon and will deliver all donations to CARE House.
