Are you having a garage sale this coming Saturday - don't

forget to add your name to the list.

Congratulations to Sheena & Trevor Snyder on the birth

of their son Trigg Otto, born Friday, June 16th. The proud

grandpa reports he weighed 9 lbs. 4 oz. and was 21 inches

long. Dwight also reports all are doing well.

Steve Vodicka, Unadilla Fire Chief, reports 4 more people

are needed before an EMT class will be scheduled. Please

consider this as we all will need the Fire & Rescue sooner

or later. Congratulations to Kandi Reed who answered the

call and will serve as a firefighter.

Sadly we report the passing of Kate Lucas, a long time

resident. She was an independent, hard working woman,

always ready to lend a hand either to a neighbor or

someone in her church family. A true matriarch, she 

touched all of our lives and will be greatly missed.
