Happy
Dollars:
Kathy
Calvin had a happy
dollar for winning
the 50/50. Steve Loughlin
gave a happy dollar
for Nancy Williams-Hunt
helping him with new
nametags and the second
one was because Peter
Karagianis was back
at Kiwanis. Russ Beane
gave $5 because his
funeral home had merged
with Simoneau Paquette,
forming the Wilkinson-Beane
Simoneau Paquette
Funeral Home & Cremation
Services. It’s
the longest name of
any funeral home in
the Green
Book.
Nancy
Williams-Hunt: a good neighbor we can bank on.
