Attendance:
Many plus spouses and kids and
grandkids. Santa, too!
Invocation:
None, but we did sing Christmas
Carols!
Children's Christmas Party :
Many kids made friends with
Santa and many gifts were handed out. Santa put many smiles on the faces
of the little ones. The kids and families enjoyed the traditional mac and
cheese with hot dogs, followed by an ice cream buffet. Don Nelson lead the
happy crowd in Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer and Santa Claus is coming to
town...
Below is a sampling of the happy faces at this year's children's Christmas party:

Quotes from Polly's memorial
service:
"I'm going to talk about myself a lot because Polly and I were one..." --
Ed Chertok
"When I set eyes on the dark haired freshman with the sparkle in her eye,
in September of 1936, I was the luckiest man in the world..." -- Ed Chertok
on Polly
"She always loved attending meetings of the Kiwanis Club. She thrived on
that contact." --David Osman, Ed and Polly's son-in-law
