The Coffees told us about Bud Sweeny passing away with cancer at 69. Her sister Marguerite is 80. Mike Daye (he's been teaching chemistry and physics for 8 years) spoke at our UMC men's group breakfast. This past summer, Mike, his wife, 2 children and Glenn and Dorothy went out west visiting 17 national parks.
Sunday 1998 - Went to CMH for lunch and the program on cholesterol. Jean had her's checked, was 197, trig-266, HDL-54, LDL-90, VLDL-53 and Chol/HDL ration 3.7 (<4.5). Then to Fort Ancient Museum, admission $5 (our season membership took care of that). Lots of history there. We were there for about two hours. Rain finally came. Went to Rod's for supper, fish dinner was $4.40 and I had Rod burger. New church on S.R. 350 now open.
Monday 1999 - [Holden Village WA]

From Dad: 1991- Dale Hodson [4/23/1933] is correct, his Dad (W.A. Hodson) and CJU often worked together on road projects. The Hodsons live in Highland, Ohio. Dale has had poor health.
Those 19 years since the [New Zealand] Hiestands were here have gone fast. That
would be a great trip [for anyone wanting to visit NZ].
