Recuperating We are happy to report that Millie Kropf is doing better after^ her recent illness. She and George were very disappointed that they couldn't attend the wedding of her cousin but the main thing is that she is feeling better. Millie was well taken care of for the weekend by George, Ray, and George, Jr. and his wife, Carol, who did all the cooking and baking and made her remain in bed for the rest she needed to become well again. Tonsillectomy We seem to have cornered the market on kids having tonsils removed these days.
