  September proved to be a busy month for the Lardins. What started out to be an easy month medically changed quickly. It all started when it was necessary for John’s chemo being delayed a week because of his platelets count being too low. This was followed with a carted artery check with all good news. Then to the eye doctor to try to solve the problem with his eyes continuing to water. After several checks it was determined that the chemo had caused his tear ducts to be blocked and there was no guarantee that surgery would solve the problem. The Dr. did put a solution in each eye and John could feel the ducts open and the medicine get to his sinuses and drained. After two weeks it has helped though there is still some blockage. Judy and John did play a round of golf with Jan and Cal followed by dinner than a few games of marbles. A quiet enjoyable time by all. John continues to play golf on Friday at various courses with a group of 24 from various cities. Current plans call for Judy and John to go to Corpus Christi TX to celebrate granddaughter Christine 16th birthday. Judy and John have not missed a birthday in TX from day one and John was not going to let the virus stop him this year. John continues with the chemo every other week getting it on a Tuesday and getting a pump removed on Thursday. Has been over four years not. Hope all are well and stay safe and continue to pray for all your family, the TRI-V Family as well as all others in need of our prayers. THEY DO WORK!

  MEMORIES FROM THE October 2010 issue of TRI-V Umph
  Our prayers go out to Jan and Cal Cashman on the loss of Jan’s mother Adelene Rex on September 7. Reports of travels this month included Judy and John Lardin to Corpus Christi TX the middle of October to celebrate granddaughter Christine sixth birthday and upon their return Judy will make a trip to Illinois to spend some quality time with her mom. Millie continues to have her good and bad days and Judy asks you to continue to remember her in your prayers. The middle of September Onallee and Bill Trachsel met Diane and Ken Plocharczyk in Sarasota FL to celebrate Art Trachsel’s 90th birthday. October pinochle was hosted by the Lardin’s and Karen Thrift and Jeff Trachsel. First place winner at the Lardins was Dion Angelosanto with 32.5 points and at Jeff Trachsel first place with 33.5 points. Standings for the first month of play had Jeff Trachsel in First place with 33.5 points, Dion Angelosanto in second place with 32.5 points and Brian Trachsel in third place with 30 points. September 19 found nine TRI-V coupes and friends boarding a bus for a seven day trip to Branson MO. The trip included overnight stays in St. Louis MO along with nine shows, three shopping trips (though we cancelled one of them) and a stop at Harrah’s Casino in St. Louis MO on the way home. TRI-V golf league had Mike Trachsel winning the first half and Matt VanHollebeke winning the second half and Mike winning the league championship in the end of year playoff. Each and every day of our lives we have a new memory. Some of those are happy ones while others are sad ones but they are all important. Thinking back it was in 2005 that Robyn and John Mackson were involved in an auto accident that totaled their car but fortunately did not cause any injuries. The trip to Branson MO was the first for some, second for others and for Judy and John Lardin their third trip in six years. Each trip was different but enjoyable.

  MEMORIES FROM THE October 2015 issue of TRI-V Umph
  There were no reported persons needing our prayers for October. A group of 10 TRI-V women went to Hankerd Inn, Pleasant Lake, MI and enjoyed each other’s company for three days and two nights. They were so impressed with Hankerd Inn they made reservations for the following August.
  Marbles began the first Saturday evening in October; all seemed to enjoy. Pinochle also began the third Saturday evening of October with only one house of players. The Tri-V social is planned for November with a visit to Motown Museum with dinner to follow. The Children’s Christmas party will be held on Sunday, Dec. 6 from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m. at the Livonia YMCA including swimming.
  John and Judy Lardin are planning to make a trip to Corpus Christi TX to celebrate granddaughter Christine’s 11th birthday with a trip in December to celebrate grandson Jacob’s birthday. They will again travel to FL for three months the first part of January. They also hope to make a trip to Illinois to visit Judy’s family and a trip to Akron OH to visit John’s family. John is doing well with his defibrillator/ pacemaker.
  Jan Cashman also reported she is doing well with her defibrillator/pacemaker at this time and does not see the cardiologist for six months.
  This wraps up another trip down memory lane. The kids and grandchildren are getting antsy with this COVID. Some are already in school and others have opted to do virtual and everyone needs to have patience. Our patience with some of them is being stretched. Soon we will be celebrating Thanksgiving and new memories will be developed. Take time now to think back about those thanksgiving dinners and the Hudson Parade and share with your children/grandchildren. Until we meet you in print next month, the Good Lord willing, take care of one another.

  I am recommending that dues be cancelled for next year in light of the virus’s effect on all indoor events. A vote on this and any other club actions that will need to be adjusted due to effects of covid is needed.

  Presidents Message
  This strange hot summer has finally come to an end. In August we held the Tri V steak roast at Jeff and Karen’s home with I believe 12 people attending. They enjoyed the pool, good company and good food. Thanks again Jeff and Karen for opening your house for the roast.
  Tri V golf ended on Monday August 24th with the championship playoff between Mike Trachsel (1st half winner), Matt VanHollebeke (2nd half winner) , Jay Trachsel and Bill Trachsel wild card point leaders. Matt V dominated from the first to last hole with a 39 to easily win by 3.5 point to the next closest golfer. Congratulations Matt and a thank you to Dave Burke for keeping track of all point, prize and side bet money which was paid out at final golf. Speaking of final golf it was held on the weekend of August 28th to 30th at Hankard Inn near Jackson. We did have rain on Friday that caused us to only play 9 holes but we had great weather the rest of the weekend. Mike Trachsel and Matt V ran a Ryder cup format again this year and Team Dave Burke beat Team Bill Trachsel by 1 point. This format is fun and keeps things interesting right to the end. Thank you Mike and Matt for all the working putting final golf together.
