Hello All,
Just a reminder of the paper schedule.
I have made a calendar invitation as a reminder to submit articles. The reminder repeats each month on the first Saturday. If you have accepted the invitation it should show up on your personal calendar.
I have also made a calendar invitation as a reminder/notification of when I will publish the paper via email & USPS. This event occurs each month on the second Sunday. Again if you have accepted the invitation it will appear on your personal calendar.
Finally, the reminder and publication schedule is posted each month in the paper in the upcoming events calendar for reference.
It looks like the articles are a little light this month, so please let me know if there is any confusion about this schedule or if there are any problems submitting articles.
Thanks,
Dave

This is information that Judy Lardin received from Pat, Lou’s wife, regarding former member of Tri-V club Lou Koewler.
After a courageous and long 14-month battle with brain cancer, Lou passed away in his sleep at about 2:30am on December 1. Throughout the entire time he never complained, never appeared to be in any pain (other than a sore toe), and was the model patient according to the staff at the nursing home.
