I<MS Neighborhood news Lakemoor-Lilymoor Area: View Mexican artifacts on display at library i Debra De la Mora of Lilymoor spent a short part of her married life in a very rural community near Guadalajara, Mexico. It was a time of exposure to a« Margaret Karas 3 85-4934 complete^ way of lii v different culture and fe. Those of us for- Slates of America, often are not aware of how simple and basic the needs of existence are in other countries. \ Debby learned much in her months in this cold at night, hot during the day, country. She brought back some of the items showing this life, and is sharing them, at the McHenry Nunda Library. On display is hand­ made potterv which keeps the water from the streams cool all day, stone mortar and pestle used to make sauces for meals. A covering, hand woven, used by the sheepherders during the below freezing weather at night, can be examined. Seeing how other people barely survive, makes us thank­ ful for where we are and what we have. Shouldn't we share more of it? SYMPATHY The sudden death of William True came as a shock to former neighbors on Lily Lake Road. Carl Stromley heard two in* complete reports on radio, without realizing that it was the father of one of the children his daughter had been best of friends with during school years. Bill leaves a loving family-his wife Jenny, five children,. six grandchildren, his parents and a brother He was so young in today's lifespan measure, but the many lives he touched will always be a memorial to him. RABBITS, RABBITS A curly haired baby rabbit, found in the litter of one of the two rabbit families raised by the Manuel Carrion family on Lily Lake Road, has aroused Mrs. Carrion's curiousity. She has not seen such a baby rabbit, and is hoping that more of the same will be reproduced. One litter has pink eyes and the other mother had black eyed babies. Son Juan will be showing some of these baby rabbits Saturday morning at the McHenry Nunda Library, which is next door to his home. Juan has brought babies-- and sometimes the mother and father rabbits to show at the library. Want to pet and feel the soft­ ness of a baby bunny? Stop at the McHenry Nunda Library Saturday, April 20, about 11 in the morning. SECOND SHOWER Tammy Boyd will be honored at a second baby shower, this time given by her three sisters. On April 21, grandmother Vola Johnson will ioin family members including mother Elaine Foute Hanke, and Margaret Foute of McHenry in a pleasant afternoon of giving and receiving. VISITORS FROM IDAHO The Patrick. Lass family, formerly of Lakemoor, have many ties here. It was a great time of remembrance and sharing when Pat and his son Andy came in from a small town near Boise, to visit with the Guy Delp family. Andy was with a science club group from his'high school who were on a one-week trip to see the sights of Chicago and surrounding areas. After graduation this May, Andy will be inducted into the U.S. Navy, joining his brother Patrick, Jr., who enlisted three months ago. Pat is especially remembered as one of the founders of the Pentecostal Church in Lakemoor, which began with meetings at the Lass home. He has now completed studies which will continue his work in the Lord's ministry. . Where was Pat's wife Kathy during this exciting week of discovery and remembrance? Home in Idaho, tending to the needs of the seven Lass children who are still at home! BACK FROM FLORIDA Former Lakemoorites Harry and Othelle Brady, now living in McHenry, are back from their winter stay in Florida. Looking tan and relaxed, they stopped for a first visit to the McHenry Nunda Library last Saturday. They expected to see Lakemoor people watching the presen­ tation of the Lakemoor History Book to the library. This will take place this Saturday. The Bradys will be present to greet old friends and share memories. EYE GLASSES FOUND A pair of dark rimmed eye glasses were found by Charles Thornton on the corner of North Blvd. and North Ave. in Lakemoor Saturday morning, April 13. Chuck brought them to the McHenry Nunda Library, where they may be claimed by the owner. In the event no one asks for the glasses, they will be given to the local Lion's Club. The library collects eye glasses for the Lions, who in turn donate them to persons who cannot afford this precious help toward better vision. riT HAPPY DAYS Carl Stromley adds how many now?-on April 21.

GOD BLESS More than 50,000 Illinoisans helped the state save nearly $79 million in FY 1984 by donating volunteer efforts to government programs and services, a report to Gov. James R. Thompson shows. The report, prepared annually by the Governor's Office of Voluntary Action (GOVA), indicates that nearly 12 million volunteer hours were donated last year in almost every area of state government. While the number of volunteers declined in FY 84, a fact due largely to a change in survey technique, taxpayers saved more than twice as much money from the year before when volunteer efforts worth $34 million were donated. v "The numbers in this report represent more than just the bottom line. They represent caring people who are willing to devote time and energy to helrf children, the elderly, the les fortunate or the disabled, name just a few segments of 01 population. The worth 01 anonymous volunteers iri Illinois, while counted eacn year, is priceless to those they help," the governor said. J "Their efforts should not go unrecognized. We owe them a debt of thanks that cannot b$ adequately repaid."
