Octogenarian Party!



Last Sunday, April 22, 2007, the Vocation Committee and St. Michael's Parish held a party for all those in the parish who were 80 and over. It was a beautiful day with blue skies and birds singing. The parish hall filled up quickly with the happy people and their families. All the tables were decorated with bright red geraniums and red table accessories. We had a lovely brunch with egg casseroles, home made cookies, fruit salad and punch and coffee for beverages. Also, the Men's Club prepared pancakes and sausages for the birthday party. After everyone had their fill of the party food, Tom Baker gave all the 80 year olds an angel statue. We had a musician who sang and played her music for all to hear. Then I read an Irish blessing and everyone left for home after celebrating their birthdays and having a piece of the delectable birthday cake ordered by Darlene Low. Above is a poster collage that Bob and I put together to hang in
ST Michael's Church vestibule. And, later, look for it at St. Michael's website at:
