Friends

Hope You Had A Good Week

~~

Joan W. in Canada had their big birthday bash yesterday.

The whole family showed up to celebrate everyone's birthday that

just happened to land in July.

This is an annual event and they each bring some food and stories

to share.

The most important one is when her next grandbaby will make

the arrival. They are still waiting as we are.

We are sure it was the biggest event and the most successful

year yet.

Tea Party

`

Connie S. held a tea party for her granddaughter, Gabby at her

house that was so much fun. They all sat around and gabbed

and each did their nails. Oh my the colors that came out of this.

The tea's were to each's choosing and the little sandwiches and tea

cakes were simply delicious.

No guys were around so they had a wonderful giggly and happy

afternoon.

That Nanny is one of a kind.

Dave & Bev F.

This was a sad but wonderful visit from two very nice people.

We had heard that they were moving and it was really a joy to have

received a visit from them to let us know that they will be returning some

time this winter for a visit.

It is not always that when someone moves that they really are sad about

leaving our Village but I'm sure that this is the case.

We will be looking forward to seeing them again.

We wish them the best of luck on the road

Friends are quiet angels who lift us to our feet when

our wings have trouble remembering how to fly.

Resident News

Bo and Pat A. have informed me that they are doing well during all

their remodeling of their home up north.

The weather has been ideal. 59 in the morning and high 80 in

the afternoon. They still get lots of rain but that is typical.

Thanks for letting us know you are well and happy.

~~~

Rod and Deb C. are leaving for their northern destination in

order to go to their family reunion. Deb's mom has already

left to meet them there. They are taking a much needed

break from their activities here. We salute them for all

the work they have done with our successful $ Bingo.

~~~~~

Last night saw a moving truck over at Dave and Bev F.. and

we stopped. Yep, they sold their dream house and will

be leaving us. What a sad note for all of us. We really

will miss the both of them but wish them all the best of

luck wherever they go.

~~~~~

Barb E. will be back this week-end and will be bringing

us lots of interesting stories to tell. I do know that she

had visits with her family and in one instance with an

old and dear friend from our village. I will put on the

results of her vacation once she returns.

~~~~

If you know of anyone who is away, and would like

to share with the Village, let someone know and will

try to report to you.

Sad News today

I just received some bad news from

Judy DeCherico. Her husband Nick

could no longer fight his illness.

He has been lifted to a place without pain.

She is one brave lady and at the

moment is with her family up north.

Nick and Judy A 57, have been

Lakewood Village residents for

almost longer than anyone else.

If you ever needed a key made,

Nick was right there

to help you - right now!

Lakewood Village will miss this fine,

dedicated wonderful person.

A memorial is being set up at this moment.

Gail (atA33) will be available to anyone

wishing to express your thoughts to Judy .

Please keep Nick & Judy in your prayers.

Ralph L.

This is your fun loving Ralph

We have learned that Ralph,

who was a long time Village resident,

has been hospitalized for tests, etc.

For those who remember him,

he and Teresa S. managed the

Lakewood Village Golf league.

Ralph plans on returning this fall to continue

with the activities he enjoys so much.

We wish him a speedy recovery

and look forward to his return.

My thanks to Lew for the information.

Happy Bingo Winners

What a happy group of enthusiast bingo players Tuesday night. Everyone had a wonderful time in spite of the rainy, wet weather. We all applaud Nancy C., Deb & Rod for showing us how much fun $1.00 bingo can be!

If you want to have a happy, fun time and even win some big bucks??? be sure to come Tuesday at 6:15 in our clubhouse.

Our gratitude goes with Nancy as she

will be going on vacation this week.

Hope Nancy and Lou enjoy their summer.

We appreciate the crew who will be taking over next week.

Mickey,,, get your iron ready!!!!

From your residents

We have it so many of our Villagers are either on vacation or are leaving for a visit with family and friends.

Lou and Nancy C. will be going up north to spend time with the family and will return sometime in September. They will be missed by the RO board and the Social Club. Enjoy your hard earned vacation!

~

John and Jessie C. will be on and extended vacation for the rest of the summer. They plan on going from coast to coast with some of their family. We know they will be having a wonderful time.

~

Barb E.. is with her family up north and enjoying her grandchildren. We hope the time spent with them will keep her laughing but we will miss her input here. Until she returns we will wish her some happy memories.

On another note!

Nick D. has been in Hospice as his health has been failing. He has had a

rough time but continues to fight. Our prayers are with him and his devoted

wife, Judy.

Love the people who treat you right,

Pray for the ones who don't.

Life is 10% what you make it &

90% how you take it.

Coffee Hour

Today marked the end of our weekly coffee hour due to our residents on vacation and etc. This has been a highlite of our week when we all tried to get together and chat about what we are doing.

Your SC president has informed us that she will be getting a new hour going the 6th of September.

We highly praise the Social Club and all its member for keeping

this going thru these last months and I know we will be looking

forward to this fall when we will begin to have their wonderful

coffee and delicious donuts.

Good luck to all this summer.

Don't worry about tomorrow!

After all, today is the tomorrow you worried

about yesterday.
