June Memories
MEMORIES FROM THE JUNE 2008 ISSUE OF TRI-V UMPH
Art Trachsel was scheduled for knee surgery on July 8 and there are hopes that it will not be a full knee replacement but correction to the knee cap. John Lardin suffered an unknown heart attack May 15 and fortunately the heart healed itself by making a collateral artery. We asked all to remember both Art and John in your prayers as they are both fighters and will not give up. Peg and Bob were preparing to spend their first full summer in Fl. Things did not start out good for Bob as he fell twice but fortunately recovered with no damage from both falls. Jacqui and Jack Schaefer returned from their two week tripto Japan to see daughter Stacy and their two grandchildren. Lots of people, bowling, shoes off, trains, subways, bikes, walkers and lots of markets. A fun filled two weeks but always good to get back home. Andrea Trachsel, daughter of Jeff, has been accepted into the nursing program at Henry Ford Community College. We wish her much success. Shirley and Bill Suchner, along with son, Bill and his wife Michelle make a trip to DeKalb IL to attend a Memorial Service for Brother ray, our founder of Tri-V. The Tri-V family picnic was set for July 27 at Mettala Park, Wixom, and the Steak Roast set for August 9 also at Mettala Park. Final Golf was set for the weekend of August 16-18 at Kendallville, IN. May Open House was held on May 10 at Gateway Golf Course, Romulus with 34 golfers playing a four-man scramble and the Tri-V Wives Spring Dinner was held on May 21 at Brass Point Restaurant, Farmington Hills with 11 ladies in attendance.
MEMORIES FROM THE JUNE 2013 ISSUE OF TRI-V UMPH
We are sorry to report on the passing of Esther Chamberlain at the age of 91. She was the spouse of longtime member Jack Chamberlain. New additions to the Tri-V family include Nicholas Burke, son of Kim and Dave Burke on May 17, and Stella VanHollebeke, daughter of Kali and Matt VanHollebeke born on May 30. Art Dushary had his recent check-up and Dr. Joe said he removed all the cancer and no further treatment needed. Judy and John Lardin had a busy May month. Judy finally sold her mom’s house and is hoping to close by the end of June. They made a trip to IL on May 14 as John was confirmation sponsor for Judy’s great niece. Their next trip was to Texas on June 2 to visit son, Larry and family at the timeshare for a week in Houston. This being the anniversary, unfortunately only 10 anniversary greetings appeared in print. Upcoming events include the Anniversary party on June 21 at the AM VETS hall, Westland; The Tri-V picnic on July 13 at Heritage Park, Farmington and Final Golf the weekend of August 16-18 in Gaylord, MI.
This wraps up another trip down Memory Lane. It was in 2008 the Red Wings won the Stanley Cup. Think back five or ten years ago as you read this issue of the Tri-V Umph. Perhaps there were things that took place in our lives, some good and some not so good, but they are still memories. Think of them and share them with your family members and friends. It might be a wedding you attended or an anniversary you celebrated or a birthday but still a precious memory. Don’t let the memories become lost. Continue to share them with others. Until we see you in print next month, the Good Lord willing, take care of one another.
