hAKL WALSH So I Hear This column is heading for another birthday or anniversary. { Come next week it will be 47 years since "Bacon's Strip" bowed out and SIH look over. While life had its rough spots, the same as everybody experiences, the column part of life has been fun. Never thought I would stay at it this long, but guess it gets in the blood. So--let's see if I can hit the 48th. It took me back a few years when 1 walked into the press, paste-up or whatever you call it room, and saw Patty Frett at work; One of my favorite girls is Patty. Everybody's favorite. As a young man, I was amused to hear an old Irish woman describe a man with a supercillious attitude this way "He thinks himself so smart". It was Napoleon who said, "Able was ere I saw Elba". It reads the same spelled backwards. Of course, you knew. Wonder if there are other quotes that go both ways. Printable quotes. Bill and Beth Malpede returned to McHenry for a visit and to get away from that terrible Arizona heat. This popular pair spent 20 years in our area as the family owned and operated the Pistakee Golf Qub. A usually reliable source tells us that Bill has -turned his talents in another direction. He's a song and dance man! Of course, the stage has also beckoned him for lead roles in some plays. Hollywood isn't far away. If you like crowds and excitement, McHenry is the place to be during this rousing Fiesta week. Spearheaded by the McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce, many have given a lot of time and effort to make the gala period a success. _The weatherman keeps reminding us that this hot weather is Just a prelude to dog days. I'll bet the football players who have started practice have a name for these days. Football in July and Aufust never sent me into orbit. When I need a little chuckle, .1 pick up a John Turnipeeed book loaned to me by Laura Phannenstill and read a few pages. V Such books are good for the funny bone. Books from Paul Wallkington gave me a lot of amusement in recent months. r It's a diversion. I can't spend all my time reading prayer books. Yellow wax beans are my Idea of a good vegetable so 1 spread the word around after being unable to buy them in our travels. Not being bashful has its rewards at times. Came a call that a girl had a package ready if I would stop and pick them up. I was there within the hour. - Seeing Alvina chewing the fat with Mrs. Hanford in the back yard is PAPERWORK, PAPERWORK, PAPERWORK! There are all kinds of odds and ends. 1 just keep wishing he were here. When someone die* their deeds live after them. . ,»o does their estate. Survivors have to take care of many details that require paperwork and contact between lawyers, government officials, In­ surance personnel and banks. Cooking for one lets, cutting the lawn, managing finances and probating the estate can all be sur­ prisingly difficult tasks Our tendency may be to rush through this work because each encounter reminds us of our loved one. These reminders are grief producing and can be painful. Yet hasty decisions are not necessarily good decisions; they may in fact be bad. Take time to do things well. When your grief makes it difficult to make good decisions it may be wise to take a vacation or a short rest. When necessary seek out friends or professionals for support and help with emotions and practical matters. « Yes, I would like to know more about prearranging a funeral at no i obligation • • Please send me a TREE pre need lxx>k!et.

Alvina came home with something they called a "sukini" which may have a different spelling, but sounds like it rhymes with bikini. Thoae two gals must have either had a special recipe or decided you could toes in anything left over in the refrigerator. Darned if that concoction wasn't tasty. After three helpings I decided to quit and leave room for a slice of rhubarb pie.
