Thursday, May 20, 1965 THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER SUNNYSIDE ESTATES FRAN OLSEN 885-5740 Honor Mothers In Subdivision Spring may be late ana the flowers retarded, but an\specially beaujtiful day arrived just in time to give Mother's Day an appropriate setting. Much Much appreciated. On this lovely day Mrs. Mary Mooha was happy to have her two sons, their wives, and the four grandchildren visit her and Mr. Mooha for the day. Among her gifts was a new pole lamp for the living room. Following her day at the family reunion, Mrs. Ruth Smith had the added pleasure of having her son from Down ers Grove spend Sunday here with her. The Tilliches were about to give their waitress their orders when Herb Fischer sauntered over from across the room. Fate: Herb and Mike play golf together each Sunday morning, and each cancelled this morning, for the obvious reason, but not saying what their plans for the day were. So Marge Fischer's and Rose Tillich's cooking chores were delegated to the same chef that day. Mrs. Turek's daughter visited during the previous week, bringing Mom a jungle gardenia, and Mr. and Mrs. Turek will be their daughter's dinner guests this coming Sunday in Palatine. Mrs. Mary Mann was happy to have ther son and his family out for the day, in spite of all her aches and pains from gardening. Mrs. Agnos Bettin had been spending some time at her daughter's home in Brookfield where her Mother's Day came a day early when all her children came and showered her with an array of gifts, among which were a new bird cage, slipcovers for her living room set, and some good Bohemian sausage. A very happy day. Mrs. Emma Johnnsen had a middle of the week celebration when her two daughters and their yowngest. daughters came from Arlington Heights and from Skokie to spend the day. Thus Mother's Day circa 1965 passed pleasantly for mothers all around. Every woman of the Estates is most welcome to attend. Come alone or bring a whole table of players for your game. Again, should anyone need a ride, call this reporter. That's May 26 at 8 p.m. Lucky Ladies . . . card party this Wednesday evening at the Kropf residence at 1713 W. Indian Ridge. Family Reunion On the eve of Mother's Day, Mrs. Ruth Smith attended her family's reunion of all the brothers and sisters, at the home of her brother, Arthur Ryan, in Norridge Park. The day long affair is an infrequent but regular event with her family, held consecutively at each brother or sister's home. Fine way to keep tabs on the family, plus good fun. Related (?) By Marriage The marriage of Bunny Joyce (of Johnsburg) and Martin Koleno which took place,at St. John's church in Johnsburg at a 3 p.m. Mass on May 8, not only united Bonnie and Martin in the bond of holy matrimony, but also united two neighbors in a bond of relationship that is a bit more difficult to determine -- and which might prove to sound like an "I'm my own Grandpaw" sort of thing! But Andy aid Cliff Sabby feel a definite somethingorother toward Marge Farley since their grandson, Martin, is now the husband of Marge's third cousin, Bunny, which obviously (?) makes them related as somethingorother. (!!)--Which was cause for many good laughs at the wedding reception which the Farleys and the Sabbys all attended, of course, after the nuptial mass. Really Related Neighbors Change the 't' to 'r' and the song-celebrated Casey is at the beg: -- that's Alan Casey of 1617 W. Indian Ridge, Sunnyside Estates, and of Casey's place of business, down on the river, which was known by another name until last July when Casey came to bat (r). Athletic he was, but not at baseball. Before the auto accident three years ago which cost him his leg, Casey had been a professional boxer and wrestler for a good ten years. Hailing from New York, he and wife Maureen, who is a native of Chicago, lived in California and most recently made their home in Libertyville before coming to the Estates nearly a year ago. The Caseys' three children are Susan who is just finishing kindergarten at Johnsburg, Christine who will be in kindergarten next fall, and Casey (Alan), Jr., who will be three years old in September. Glad to meet you all, Caseys. And Maureen is not one to keep a good thing to herself: soon after they were settled, sister Pat and family moved to the Estates from Chicago, 1715 W. Oakleaf Drive is the new home.of Pat and Tony Fritch. But not too. long after they were settled here, Pat was wondering if this move was such a good thing -- the place seemed jinxed. Three year old Laura ate a bottle of baby aspirin and was in teetering critical condition for two days. Fortunately, she is fine now. Later, John, who is not yet two years old, was poisoned by carbon monoxide in their garage. He survived that crisis, but later fell out/ of his crib and has the scare from his four stitches to remind him forever. Then last month there was a fire at the plastics factory, of which Tony is the foreman, in Fox Lake, and Tony and his men fled from the building just in time to escape injury. All materials were burned but the machines were usable after a thorough cleaning. Next? No next, please. And thank, God that each tragedy ended as happily as it did. Here's hoping that your events have a happier slant beginning NOW. When time and conditions permit, Tony is a golfer and both he and Pat are league bowlers. Horseback riding is also a favorite sort of fun for Pat. Welcome to the Estates, Casey and Fritches all. We hope you will be very happy here. -- and trouble-less or at least less-troubled. And a happy anniversary to Pat and Tony who will celebrate their fifth on Monday 22. Our Sympathy . . . to Alice Bieschke whose maternal grandfather, Karl Drummer passed away May 13 at his home in Chicago. Mr. Drummer would have been eighty-six years old on Memorial Day. Honors At the regular monthly meeting of Cub Pack 452 on May 12th, Donny Gerstein advanced from Weblo to Boy Scout, with unusual verve. Before the impressive candle-lighting ceremony, Mr. Zenner reported that Donny not only knew all the answers asked him by the members of the Board of Review, but also new the page numbers they appeared on!! His leader verified Mr. Zenner's statements, and it was with much pleasure that he presented Donny with his neckerchief and Weblo badge and presented Mrs. Gerstein with the pin and diploma. Our Congratulations, Donny. Very fine job.

Johnny is a member, thinking this will be a great REST and RELAXATION. -- » » The twenty-one scouts and Johnny's cousin, Danny Rieben, and their four chaperones made the eleventh annual U. S. Grant Pilgrimage to Galena, Illinois, for the Civil War Centennial on the weekend of May 8th. The boys, along with troops from five states camped in Apple River Canyon, twenty-eight miles outside of Galena. And then they walked into town?? No, but they did take a five mile hike -- which Bob didn't consider very restful -- and they toured the historical sites, explored some caves, and participated in the parade -- restful? After dinner, to get the boys "calmed down" for bed, the chaperones organized a snipe hunt!!! Hilarious. In between all these events and during some -- it poured rain! Pleasant? Well, Sunday night the grimey group returned -- soaked -- and Johnny and Danny entered with "Gee, was that fun!" and ole Bob entered with "Wwwwooeee. Back to work tomorrow--for a rest!" He did and he also picked up some sticks for Johnny and Danny. For snipe hunting? Yes. But they also come apart to reveal -- a fish scaler. Clever Dad. Sideline: each scout who attended this camp-out was required to write a three hundred word report on Grant, in order to earn this neck scarf and badge. Well rounded event. Extended Stay During her recuperative period following her recent surgery, Ramona Rieben and her son Danny of McHenry are staying with her sister, Betty Lakowske and family.

CAMP SITES UNDER WATER With the Illinois River out of its banks, Starved Rock State Park will have no camping for about two more weeks, James W. McMillen, supervisor of state parks, has announced. The park's camping area bordering the river is all under water and as the river, goes down, silt and debris must be removed and camping facilities will have to be completely rehabilitated. In 1964 Starved Rock had the second most popular state park camping area, with 34,433 campers registered. The river flooding has not affected the park lodge and cabins, which are open as usual. If 50 million are wrong, it is still wrong: never be afraid to be the minority. Recent Acquisitions The Garn family has laid in a^fresh supply of baby bottles! You didn't suspect? Good reason.
