I MCCULLOM LAKE NEWS EVE LEVESQUE 885-4141 SILVER WEDDING CELEBRATION FOR HARRY BERRYS A group of fellas and a few young ladies were attending a Mother'9 Day dance at the Paradise Ballroom, Chicago, and a chance encounter between two of the participants led to courtship and marriage and on Nov. 29, Barbara and Harry Berry were wed 25 years, marred by some tragedy. Barbara Rotsko, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Rotsko (he is now deceased), of Cicero, exchanged vows with Harry Arnold Berry, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Berry of Chicago, during high Nuptial Mass at St. Anthony's church, in 1941 and set up housekeeping in Chicago. The union was blessed with the births of Harry, Jr., July ft, 1943 and Arnold (Arnie), S^pt. 13, 1945/ The lads began their education in Cicero until the family moved to McCullom Lake, wh6n they transferred to the McHenry schools. Joyously, the family of four, moved into the home at 2717 W. Orchard Drive in November, 1957, across the street from the lake which was to claim the life of their first born on June 7, 1958. Arnie graduated front Mc- Henry high, is now a senior at Lewis College, Lockport, and is a general business management major. Two special parties marked the special milestone for the Berrys. The first, a surprise. was held Thanksgiving day at the home of Harry's parents --Mr. and Mrs. Vincent Berry. It was festive, in spite of the senior Mr. Berry being bedridden because of a stroke. Abbie prepared a sumptuous meal and presented the couple with gifts and a silver sprayed bouquet of lovely flowers. Other guests were Harry's sister and family--Mr. and Mrs. Marvin Maenner, Arline and Tommy of S.W. Chicago. The second dinner was held at the junior Berry home with Barbara's family in attendance last Sunday. They included Mrs. Barbara Rotsko arjd daughter, Juliana, of CiceVo, and Mr. and Mrs. Alex Rotsko of Hoffman Estates. Arnie was home from school for both affairs. The couple received a useful gift and money from their son, and a lovely hand crocheted scarf and tablecloth in white from Mrs. Rotsko. The delicious centerpiece which was served after the ham and trimmings dinner was a heart sahped, white, pan cake, trimmed in silver, given by Mrs. Abbie Berry, and decorated by Arline Maenner. Harry, who has written many articles of verse, gifted his lovely "bride" with twenty- five silver dollars, one for each year of marriage, and accompanied by a separate poem for each year enclosed in styrofoam. Barbara's gift to him was her love and devotion through happiness and sorrow. Both are employed and work in Woodstock and Marengo.

Fish Derby Dates Announced A hard working committee, headed by Kenneth Betts, met for more than four hours last Sunday to formulate plans for the second annual Fish Derby, scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 18 and 19, 1967. The rest of the group included Ray Lary, Bob Benson, Ray Fisher, Bill Walter, Ronald Godina, Len Jensen, Bill Gleeson and Ed Caron. The Derby will be presented under the auspices of the Cullom-Knoll association and promises to be more spectacular than the first one. Emphasis will be placed on the fact that the limit in bass (10 per day) was caught duri n g l a s t y e a r ' s e v e n t , v e r y unique in this state. Much, much more detail will be released in the next two and one half months. Cullom-Knoll Meets 'Sunday, Dec. 4 A large turn-out of officers r.nd members of the Cullom- Knoll association is expected to attend this Sunday's meeting, according <• to president Ray Lary. This very active organization, just brimming with fresh, new ideas and plans, is eager to enroll residents who are newly arrived to the community and are cordially invited to attend, observe, and participate. The meeting will be held at 3 p.m. in the beachhouse and under discussion will be the recent fabulously successful Harvest II ome dance and the forthcoming fish derby. This is one meeting you just don't want to MISS!! Delicate Surgery Was Scheduled Alex Hocin, 14, the son of Sally and Anton Hocin, was scheduled to undergo surgery for the removal of a brain tumor at Rockford Memorial hospital, Rockton, last Monday morning. The young lad who was first afflicted with numbness on the right side was hospitalized in McHenry for a time, last week, then removed to Wesley Memorial hospital .Chicago, last Friday, Aftei more than three hours deliberation with his parents and attending physicians, he refused to stay in the city. His parents brought him home and conferred with more specialists, resulting in his entering ihe Rockford hospital. As v\e went to press, there was no word on his condition, but we pray for a successful outcome to a most serious operation for the young lad. Since he is confined so very far from his home, we sincere ly hope that readers will sympathize with his plight and send cards of mail to cheer him on his way to recovery.

Holiday Activities Thanksgiving this year, seemed so very special, with inhabitants of our hamlet, sharing festivities with so many. The McKims--Marie and Allan--served enormous portions of turkey and trimmings to Shirley and George Baumbeck of Eastwood Manor and the kiddies--Phillip and Denise; and Marie's folks, Marie and Wally Hojnafiki. jiin and Hugh McDo'rfald spread the welcome mat for Sarah and Harry Mackin, Theresa Cunningham, and Barb and Ed Caron and their two * wee ones. They Closed early so Elma and Earj could go "out to dinner" with their two sons, Kenneth, home from his freshman year, at medical school (C.C.O.) and Donald. Marge and Ole Olsen, in the midst of adding a beautiful addition to their home, took time to prepare a holiday bird for their family, including third year student at Bradley University--Ted, Tom and Margie. Jake and I were thrilled to share our feast with Chrys (home from MacMurray College) and her room mate-- Miss Byang Pil Lee, whom we call Pat. Pat, a native of Korea whose lineage goes back to the Lee dynasty, has been in this country for four years. Pat was staying with friends in Evanston and was called for by a young man who is studying for his doctorate at Northwestern University and answers to the name of Kim. Meeting both was a cherished opportunity. We have wonderful news concerning Chrys' future plans but prefer to wait until the release comes from her school. Awfully hard to keep, though. 1 Welcome and Farewell It's strictly girls' dormitory now that Barbara Lorch is living with Dorothy and Stewart Norbert Lorch.
