A recent article in the Register highlighted the local efforts of the Mission Interest Quilters of First Lutheran Church who have for 50 years sewn quilts to "provide warmth and comfort to those in need, whether it be abroad or within our community." A number of those ladies, including Signe Anderson, mother of Marilyn Anderson of our class, have been involved for quite a few years.
If you read carefully the entire article, you may have found that Marilyn's mother is 95, and still going strong. According to another recent Register article, Maureen Westbrook, mother of Nancy of our class, also celebrated her 95th birthday recently. Congratulations to Signe and Maureen for continuing to live such wonderful, productive, and influential lives.
On a sad note, we recently lost another nonagenarian. Maxine Darnall, mother of Sharon in our class, passed away (http://eidsnessfuneralhome.com/memsol.cgi?user_id=2106721). Her obituary indicates how active she (and her husband) had been in the community.
Our condolences go out to Sharon and her family at this difficult time.
