fcag# Twenty-F our THE McHENRY PLA1NDEALER Thursday. May 14, 1384 Sunnyside Estates HONOR FRST COMMUNICANTS HtOMyUNlTY Many Gatherings Held For Children On May Weekend Fran Olsen -- 385-5740 It was a truly heavenly scene at the 8:30 Mass on May 2 at St. John's /church where the tour pairs/of little angels, (among them, Debbie Fuqua, Kimmy Bute and David Noah) escorted the First Communibants to the sanctuary for their initial reception of the Body and Blood of Our Lord in the Holy Eucharist. After this hallowed hour, the recessional heralded the beginning of the festivities. Frankie Gqy/an had guests from near arid far: Grandma and Grandpa Michels from Pi- S.takee Bay and aunts and uncles: the William Gieses from Whitewater, Wis., the Warren Hagers from Hartland and the Ange Dibonas from Marengo. A baker friend of the family provided the surprise of the day by presenting Frankie with 4 beautifully decorated, strawberry filled First Corhmunion cake. But party or not, Frankie was off to Little League practice that afternoon. (He's a potential pitcher). Darlene Gerke, being the casual type, felt she was being subjected to undue restrain for being required to stay in her lovely white dress throughout the open house, Which began at 2 p.m. Her godparents, aunts, uncles and cousins all came to congratulate her and present their gifts of a sterling silver cross, an Infant of Prague statue, and money. Jean and Dick were very proud of their "little angel". Mark Davis was very excited about all the events of the day. Mark's paternal grandparents and three aunts, uncles and their families were present to share the joyous day. And of course Mark was very pleased with all the money he received. Marty Jesski had a nice quiet day climaxed by a turkey dinner with all the trimmings shared by a family of old and dear friends from Chicago. He received "an awful lot" of cards and money from relatives, and the previous day brought unexpected guests, coming to congratulate the event of the following day. Allan Kennebeck greeted his godparents, relatives and friends from Chicago, Westchester, Lake Zurich, Woodand Cary; his Grandma and Grandpa Kennebeck and Aunt Alvina Schumacher from Johnsburg; Grandma and Grandpa Gamperl and Uncle Rich from Sunnyside village and the Earl Frys and Andy Eichhorns from the Estates -- a total of 50 guests. Breakfast was served to those woh attended the Mass and later came the buffet. Tommy Fiedler's party was deferred 'til June because the family" has had a succession of cases of mumps. However, his maternal grandmother came to spend the weekend, Which pleased him greatly. Kasey Anderson enjoyed an all-day-long party attended by her maternal grandpa, two aunts, uncles and their families, the Legs Bute family, and the Hank Zeigers. She received everything she needed in the way of sport clothes and also a cute little lounge chair. Kasey was especially pleased that her grandpa was able to come out, since her grandma couldn't, because she is hospitalized. Mary Walczynski visited Grandma Holtfodt at the nursing home before attending her own party. Grandma was so thrilled to see her in her white dress on such a happy day. Stan's family and the Mikkelsens arrived late afternoon for a Polish sausage and hot beef buffet and George Kropf, Sr., dropped in later in the evening. Mary will select her own watch her gift. from her parents. Yatzy and pinochle filled the later hours of the evening. Stevie Kanter's maternal grandparents came out to share his big day with him, bringing him a watch. Since he has just recently begun Cub Scouting, his parents gave him a pocket knife. Kathy Gerstein had "every relative from here to Chicago and back and an aunt and two cousins from Syracuse, New York (who were here for a brother's wedding and decided to stay over)" on hand to celebrate the day. 30 to 40 people, estimate Delores. Brother Donny and another guest played their accordions, so there was much dancing and merry-making. It was a lovely day for Kathy and she was pleased to have received, a little early, a crystal cross necklace which she was consequently able to wear at Mass. Rosemary Kayler's guests were her aunt and uncle from Roselle, with their family, of couse. It was a nice quiet day for them. Grandma Radtke, of course, attended Lori Radtke's celebration. Lori was so thrilled to have her cake ornamented with a statue of the Sacred Heart giving the Holy Eucharist to a little girl. On the eve of Marty's First Communion, the Palmer house began to buzz with excitement. His godmother from Evanston came to spend the night so she could attend the Mass on Sunday. Motoring from Evanston also on Sunday for the Mass, came both pairs of grandparents, Aunt Lenore, Uncle Joe, and great-aunt Mary. Shortly after noon, the rest of the guests began flowing through the door, Marty's godfather and his family from Morton Grove, Aunt Jeanne and family from Wheeling, Aunt Dottie and family from Gurnee, Mary Ellen DuLaney and sons from Pistakee Hills, and the A1 Stephens, Howard Hottels and Hank Zeigers from the Estates. But nothing could stand in the way of Little League practice for Marty. Roads ' Your road commissioner, Mel Simmons, would like the residents to know that if keeping watch on "the roads. -- he's watching those holes grow and grow. Seriously, though, he asks you to use your reserve supply of patience in bearing with the situation as it now exists, for nothing can be done immediately. He thanks you in advance for your cooperation. He'll be glad to accept any calls, day or night, on the roads. Good Show Congratulations to Donna and Ray Jensen for their part in the fabulous production of the McHenry Choral club on May 2 and 3. A complete success. Distinguished Speaker Tom Hanahan's opening address , at the Mock political convention at Marian high school on May 1 was received with wild enthusiastic applause by the delegates, true to convention form. After the session at the convention, Tom and Delores Hanahan joined Mike Howlett and the Bolgers for dinner at a local resaurant. Anniversary Surprise For their tenth anniversary, Dale Maule told Charlotte that he'd take her out to dinner. So upon arriving at the home of the friends who were to accompany them for the evening, Maules were asked to come in for a minute, because they were not ready yet. Surprise! Dale had pre-arranged the entire party, including decorating this friend's recreation room for the occasion, and ordering a lovely anniversary cake. The number of guests may have been an unlucky (13) but all else was fortuitous: the luscious bar-b-que dinner, party games, jokes, laughter, and most of all, -- having such a thoughful husband. Sunnyside Swifts Snuffed Season's over for the condition- conscious men of Sunnyside Estates who have been volleying the ball, the bulge, and the beer (in that order, more or less) each" Tuesday night of the past cool seasons at Johnsburg school. P. J. Schneider, Ed Wickman, Dale Maule, Gene Urbanski, Jerry Olsen, Jim Farley, Ray Bies-, chke and Bruce Kwarta were among the fifteen to twenty men who appeared each Tuesday to develop pulled muscles, twisted fingers and spraihed thumbs. Gene left the final scene limping. But seriously, more power to these men for their interest in keeping fit. Excellent relaxation for pressure ladden breadwinners. A party at Johnsburg Community hall May 12 climaxed the volleying. others volunteer to give the shelter a fresh coat of paint. Call Mel Simmons. Coming and Going The Dale Maules entertained their minister and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. Mclntyre, for an afternoon of cards (Note: the women ln?at the men twice.) on May 3, to open the outdoor grilling season. Stan and Joan Walczynski made a one hour and forty-five minute trip into South Chicago on a recent Saturday afternoon to attend the wedding of a friend of Stan! That's the perfect blendship sort of friendship! Mr. and Mrs. A1 Figura were married at Holy Cross church and held their reception at Kosciuszko hall, where the music was merry and the old friendships were heartily renewed. They returned to Hilltop drive at the sweet hour of 3:15 a.m. Then for a quiet, restful Sunday? Oh, no, not this active family. Off to Joliet went the whole family on Sunday afternoon for the confirmation of Stan's nephew, Steven Anderson, at Holy Family church. The party was a reunion of Stan's family, so was quite a gala affair. Movers The altered position of the bus shelter is the temporarily permanent one, i. e., until such time as it has to be moved from that spot for some definite reason! Dick Gerke, Earl Fry, Joe Jost, Mel Simmons, Jim Leahy, and an unidentified teen-age boy are the men who handled the big move.

Upon their arrival, Barbara Dietrich called out, "Come in and see our new couch, Patty." As she walked into the living room, Patty was greeted with "surprise"!! There stood Mary Farley and four other friends, raring for the party to begin. After the buffet luncheon the girls talked, laughed, played ball, etc. . . ., and later on were locked in the chicken house by Barbara's older sister. Such a fun, fun day. Patty was so thrilled with the thoughtful gestures of her friends. A May 2 she will always remember. Lois Anderson spent her birthday recuperating from Sunday's activities and preparing for her trip into Chicago the following day to visit her mother in the hospital, which she does every other day. "But her family presented her with a lovely duster, which perked .the day. Debbie Fuqua had a sizable party on May 2 for her seventh birthday.
