Long Illness and Suffering Ei)d In Death for Tom Byrnes After two years beginning with .surgery and long hospitalization, Tom Byrnes of 5117 W^Orchard Drive succumbed in l«is home on Thursday afternoon. His own physician was out of town and another answered the call. Summoned also was the Johnsburg Rescue squad and they appeared in record time, although it was too late to save him. Details appear elsewhere in the Plaindealer. As always in a case of emergemy, our own police department was on hand to give assistance. Chief Larry Murray in the squad car provided escort so that no time would be lost by a traffic jam. Mr. Byrnes was devoted not only as a family man, but a wonderful grandfather and dedicated to his country. He was active in many military organizations and was accorded a ve®MWs privilege for his funeral. Deepest sympathy to his loving wife, Mary, who cared for Tom constantly during his illness, to his only son. Tom, Jr., and all the others of his family who mourn his passing. We Mourn Also With Corky and Ken Ingersol of Park View whose infant daughter, Bambi Lynn, succumbed On Saturday evening. The wee one was born in Memorial hospital for McHenry county, Woodstock on March 29. Graveside rit«> were held in St. Patrick's cemetery on Monday at 2:30 p.m. \ Other survivors include sisters, Carol and Dawn, brother, Kevin, paternal grandmother, Elizabeth Ingersol, and numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins. Condolences To Ben Gates whose sister, Mrs. Gladys M. Smith, passed away in Elmhurst hospital on Saturday, April 15. She had been ailing for the past year. Ben and his family attended the services which were held in Franklin Park on the following Monday with interment in Eden cemetery, Schillar Park. Other survivors in the family include her children, Bill, Jr., of California, and Robert of Bellwood, M.; 6 grandchildren, mother, Mrs. Anna Knight; and brothers, Willard, Blowers and Robert and sisters, Winnie and Gretchen. More Election Data Although it was not a record for the village, 337 ballots were cast in the election, of* which 13 were by absentee. The record of 345 was cast four years ago. There were 84 ' straight Local tickets -with 47 for the Progressive slate. One ballot was unfolded which revealed no vote cast for any candidate!! Others voted for only one. A spirited campaign by both parties culminated in an exciting election which drew an estimated 85-90 per cent of the total residents qualified to vote! A better percentage than the national picture, that is obvious. Many, many thanks to Judges Irene Sales, Elma Nelson and Louise Hammerstein who put in long hours in service to their community. The newly elected officials took their oath of office on Monday night of this week and will take over their e duties shortly. Congratulations To Mrs. Mildred Kelley of Park View who became a grandmother again on April 16, when her son and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Bob Kelley, became the parents of a boy at Mount Sinai hospital, Chicago. draining.

Her nuptials to Charles Gies, son of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Gies of McHenry, will take place at St. Mary's church on Saturday, May 6, at 11 a.m. Gaining entrance to the Rowe home posed a bit of a problem since the roads were under construction because of the gigantic sewer project in progress. The gals drove as close as possible and then stumbled through the gravel and mud. This is quite a feat in spike heels! In addition to Mrs. Rowe other hostesses for the evening were Helen and Linn McCurdy, Pat Soustek (Helen's other daughter), and Beverly Longhway. The quintet put out the most succulent array of tempting dishes including two sandwich loayes, decorated appropriately for a bridal shower, molded salads, cocktail crackers, and other goodies, including two beautiful cakes. Bearing gifts and "sage words of wisdom!" were mother of the bride, Shirley, aunts, Theresa Schultz, this reporter and Marge Olsen, Bea Hushes, Sally Olsen, Myrt Martell. Barbara Krickl, Mary Ann Sharp, Ina Jensen, Ruth Vycital. Elaine Ziszik, Lois Peterson. Nell Cina and Betty Houck. Many sent gifts who were unable to attend. Excellent catering services were provided by junior misses, Donna and Karen Rowe and Kathy Longhway. This is the first wedding of the second generation in both the Olsen and Nielsen familic-s and one we won't miss!! A previous shower for Kaflren was held at tho home of a gal pal in Sunnyside a few weeks ago. " Surgical Patient Because of a shortage of hospital beds, Mrs. Barbara Thacker was released earlier than planned from McHenrv hospital. She went "under the knife" on Friday a.m. and came home on Saturday, to be cared for by her mother, Mrs. Jim Benesh. The corrective surgery on her nose was to clear up difficulties which she has suffered for 12 years. The surgeon was the same as the one who eared for her in the city that length of time ago! Co-incidental, what? Gaining back her strength will take some doing and Barbara would be considerably cheered by messages from all her friends. Her address is Lake Shore Drive. Thanx in advance. First Communicants Janie Frost, Teresa Dason and Steven Nelson were among the large group of youngsters Who made their first Communion at St. Mary's phureh on Sunday, April 16. Those who have this event forthcoming on Sunday, April 30, "at St. Patrick's church are Kevin McKim and Michael Schlitt. If any names have been omitted, please notify this reporter at EV. 5-3191.
