(Don Peasley Photography) Village of McHenry Shores Inge Aide 344-1984 Resignations Reign At Last Trustee Meeting At a regular meeting of the board of trustees of the village of McHenry Shores, Trustee Ed Olbinski read a letter from Clerk Delores Norman who resigned because of personal differences with members of the village government. Her resignation was accepted and Linda Luerssen was appointed to fill the vacancy temporarily until the next elections in April of 1977. We are sorry to see you go, Delores! Road commissioner Clarence Norman also resigned. The former assistant road com­ missioner, Russ Haderly was named to fill the vacancy and Tom Johnson is the new assistant road commissioner.

A girl by the name of Susan Parker and two of her friends made an extra trip to her house to return her daughter's jacket which they had found. That was a nice thing to do, Susan!
