LAKELAND PARK Elect NeVr Officers Of Lakeland Park Association On March 30 by Bernice Boyce JllBt a reminder that the an- her daughter's home, Mrs. Ray nUal lAeeting and election "of Grote (Virge to us) convalesofficers will be held on Sunday March 30, at 7:30 p.m. at the American Legion home. The absentee ballots will be ready on March 16 and can be obtained from the L.P.P.O.A. secretary, Mrs. Joan Krater, 126 Shore Drive. If Mrs. Krater doesn't happen to be home, which she so often isn't because of all the time she gives to association ^ business, just leave a note that you were there and she will see to it that you will receive a ballot without making another trip, Just another service that Joan has taken onto her already heavily laden shoulders. I really don't believe any of us appreciate the efforts that Joan has given to the association. The many accomplishments attained by the association have been realized because of Joan's persistence. Too many to be mentioned in this article. I think Joan's name should head the list of unsung heros. cing' and is how home and is doing as well as can be expecter after suffering from the shock of the accident. Hope you are fully recovered real soon Mrs. Czajkowski. Our best wishes to you. livaii will soon be going , back to her home in Springfield and so wanted to make this trip that they decided this was the weekend, so off they went.
