MEMORIES FROM THE APRIL 2007 ISSUE OF TRI-V UMPH
Another new month and once again we have to report that Peg Wendt is still having health problems. Though she was back home and had been doing good on her therapy she had a slight setback Easter weekend when she got the U.T.I. again which seems to come on every couple of months. We ask you to continue to remember Peg in your prayers. New arrival to the TRI-V Family was Madison on April 10th to Robyn and John Mackson. Another TRI-V member has purchased a new home in FL. This time it is Kathy and Art Dushary purchasing their home in Top of the World complex near Ocala FL. They plan on renting it out next winter then retire there the following year. The Andersons, Hoffman’s and Schaefer’s were finalizing their plans for their 15 day cruise thru the Panama Canal he end of April. Judy and John Lardin made a long weekend trip to IL the end of March to visit her Mom to celebrate Judy’s birthday on April 3rd and Mom’s birthday on April 7th. They returned to MI on March 27th. Upon their return home Judy’s Mom called to let her know her Uncle, her Mom’s brother, had passed away and there was going to be a memorial service for him in Tucson AZ on April 3rd and she wanted to go. Judy returned to Mom’s on March 31st and left for Tucson on April 2nd returning on April 4th. Her Uncle was a pilot and one star retired General from the Air Force and at the memorial service the Blue Angels had a fly over. There was an article from Donna and John Clingerman about their two week visit to Africa to visit their daughter and son-in-law Jason. This years FL golf weekend for the “guys” included Jack Schaefer, George Hoffman, Terry Dunham, Lee Anderson, Nick Angelosanto, Matt VanHollebeke and Mike and John Lardin. After golf on Mon Matt flew back to Detroit to go to work and Mike flew to TX to spend the rest of the week with his brother Larry. The remaining six stayed and were met by Jacqui, Peg, Sue, Marian, Vickie and Judy for the rest of the week. We stayed at three different time shares but did meet each day and did things as a group as well as socializing in the evening. The month of March was hard on many of us with some nasty colds. The Kuhrs and Lardins had to change March pinochle as both were sick with John having pneumonia in one lung. The TRI-V Wives May Dinner was set for May 16th at G. Subu’s Leather Bottle on Farmington Rd, Livonia. The article for the 70th Anniversary Party set for the weekend of June 22nd at McGuire’s Resort in Cadillac, listed a final schedule of events with times and locations and a form for those attending to make their preference known to the Committee. Newly elected officers were President John Clingerman, Vice-President Mike Trachsel, Secretary Dion Angelosanto and Treasurer Geoff Steinhauer.
MEMORIES FROM THE APRIL 2012 ISSUE OF TRI-V UMPH
Earl Tishler joined the TRI-V Club in 1949 and was an active member until his passing in March. We ask you to remember Earl in your prayers. Our prayers go out to Vickie and Nick Angelosanto on the loss of Rosa, Nick’s Mom, on her passing and to Art Dushary who suffered an appendectomy on March 29th. He was rushed to Monroe Regional MC at 1:30am and surgery was performed at 7:00pm. We ask you to remember the family in your prayers. Judy and John Lardin will be leaving FL on April 5th for the return trip to MI via through IL to celebrate Judy’s Mom’s 89th birthday. There were articles on Final Pinochle on April 22nd at the Cadieux Café, Detroit. TRI-V Golf 2012 to start on April 23rd at Hickory Hills, Wixom, TRI-
V Woman’s Dinner on May 16th at Bahama Breeze, Livonia, May Open House on May 19th at Gateway Golf Club, Romulus, 75th Anniversary Party the weekend of June 23 in Chelsea MI and Final Golf August 17th-19th at Ray’s Retreat, Gaylord. There was an article on the Family Event held on April 1st in Toledo’s Imagination Station. It was attended by 20 adults and 10 children. This wraps up another trip down Memory Lane. What is the meaning of TRI-V? I look back to the 65th Anniversary Party when Mike Lardin asked to address the Club. There was silence and a special sharing by Mike thanking the Club Members, and most of all his parents, for supporting him through his personal struggles. Mike’s words seemed proper and touched all that truly reflects what TRI-V is all about. Until we see you in print next month, the Good Lord willing, take care of one another.
