SUNNY VACATION iSvo lucky young ladies and their mother recently enjoyed a terrific twelve day vacation. Mrs. Raymond Stilling, sixteen-year-old, Renee, and eleven-year-old, Reechele, boarded a jet from O'Hare Airport and when they stepped off the airliner they were in sunny California. (It was the girls' first trip in an airplane and from what Mom said they had two rather turbulent flights.) Their first stop was North Hollywood where they visited Mrs. Stilling's niece, Nanette Johnson, for about six days. They all had a marvelous visit. enjoyed all the sightseeing and had fun trying to recognize a few "stars". They were then off to Santa Monica for two glorious days of swimming in the Pacific Ocean and relaxing and enjoying their fun in the sun. The women did bring home an interesting souvenir from their visit to the ocean, a real star fish! From Santa Monica they were off to a fun filled three days at Disneyland. They had a marvelous time and these three ladies say everyone should try to see Disneyland as it's truly a fun place to visit! Mom and her daughters have been home for a while now and are back to their routine every day living, but all of,them won't soon forget their fabulous trip to sunny, beautiful California. A SPECIAL DAY! Betsy Brooks was indeed a very excited young lady on Sunday, April 21, when she had the joy of making her First Holy Communion at St. Patrick's church.

Helen and Jim held a dinner party for Betsy that evening and Granda Alice Brooks was a guest along with Jim, Helen and Georgina Widen and Lisa Vavrik.
