Dick's Retirement

Last night Lakewood Village hosted a

surprise Retirement party for our own

Dick M.

Dick was completely surprised!!!!

Speechless and humbled by the

friends and family who came to honor

a great man and his working career.

~~~

Dick has been working for us around

9 years and you could have seen him

early in the day cleaning up trash that

overnight appeared.

We can credit him with the repair of most

all of our mailboxes and always had a wave

and a smile on his face.

~~

I know he is retired but rest assured we

will see him around our Village, so besure

you stop and let him know how much you

appreciated all the hard work he has done

for us.

~~~

My special thanks to the R.O. board, and

the social club along with our Manager

and staff for presenting the wonderful

evening to a really nice man.

From Canada

Had a wonderful note from Rick & Sharron D.

~~~~

They are missing our beautiful warm weather

and looking forward to this fall.

~~

Bridge has been their passion here and

have gotten together with

Bob & Marilyn C. for a game along

with our friends

Larry & Marie C.

Larry hasn't been feeling too well lately

but still has that twinkle in his eye and

a smile for all.

It's always fun and interesting to hear

from them as they live their summers

in the north.

~~

Thanks and keep us posted....

Lou C.

Deb C. reported to us that Lou is now in the

hospital up north.

They said he has pneumonia and will be

hospitalized for several more days.

He is a strong willed man and will

soon get to come home.

We are so sorry that his visit has been

interrupted at this point but we wish him well

in his recovery.

***

Nancy has been at his bedside the whole

time and is anxious for him to get back to

their fun vacation.

***

Thinking of you both here in the Village.

Uninvited visitor

Tonight we had a visitor in our Village!
Some of us were on hand to witness the Animal Control at work.

I did not have my camera with me so if anyone got pictures, could you get one to me so I can share with everyone. It was an experience that we should all be aware of. I will try to get the story to you as soon as I get the information.

Thanks to Carlos B. for getting these pictures to me so fast.
This is a 7ft. alligator that wandered into our Village around 7:00 this evening and was chased out to 90th.

The best response is to quickly call 911 to have someone come and handle the problem safely and according to the law. Please be careful around any of the wild animals that we have around our Village. They are WILD and therefore are not to be messed with. Thanks to everyone who stayed out of the way for the Florida Animal Control officer to get his job done.

They did a fine job of cantaining the large alligator. Out thanks go out to him also.

A footnote:

Now is the time to prepare for the up coming

season. You should start planning your

survival supplies and have things cleared up

in your yards.

I know hurricane season is coming and it

wouldn't hurt to be aware of what can

happen even though it could be a couple of

months away.

Good Luck
