Thanks so much to Katie Callaway for notifying us of the passing of Marlin Callaway. He was born at Unadilla to Raymond & Rosa Callaway. Marlin, his brother Larry, and my uncle Raymond Fisk, all served on the USS Hancock at the same time. Our condolences to his wife Shirley and their children. Marlin was laid to rest at Lincoln Memorial Park.

 

 

 

 

Continued get well wishes to Cindy Bassinger, Cindy Stanley, Lori Boone, Joe & Lois Chadwick and to all those who have come down with Covid; sadly those numbers are rising again.

 

 

 

 

Glenda Wallen Willnerd shared this photo, which will be available to look at in the History Room. My father-in-law, Vernon Wilhelm, is in the upper right corner.

 

 

 

We've had our first scoopable snow and the lower temps to go with it. Thankfully, it's mostly melted.

 

 

 

We haven't seen high school wrestling since we were in high school and now that we have a grandson who participates, it's a whole new learning curve! We attended a triangular the other night and got to see Barret Brandt get his 100th and 101st wins. Congratulations Barret!
