MAIDSTONE — Our sympathy to the Dumont family on the passing of their brother Clifford. He was a resident here at the apartments.

Kisea, George, Shea, Corfan and Denise Newton took the motor home on a holiday. They picked up Coreen Newton at Red Deer and went to see the Columbia ice fields and the waterfalls along Banff Jasper highway. The highlight of the trip for the boys was the zip lining. They met people at the campsites who were not far from home.

Ruth Weinhandl was to her daughter’s 40th wedding anniversary at Okla near Yorkton. It was a happy enjoyable time meeting old neighbours and relatives who hadn’t seen one another for a number of years.

Some of the apartment people enjoyed the 50th wedding anniversary for Dave and Judy Bedwell held at the Seniors’ Drop In Centre on Saturday. It was an enjoyable afternoon and supper.

Jean Stewart had a niece, Ilene of Kitscoty, Alta., to see her Monday.

Two weekends ago Marlene Pike’s, son Rodger, his wife Linda and boys were camping at the museum campgrounds. They took Marlene to camp where she enjoyed a campfire supper.

This weekend Barb and Jerry took Marlene to Lloydminster where they met Lorna, Barb and Brenda for coffee. On the way home they stopped in Lashburn and visited with Gloria Ford. It was an enjoyable weekend for Marlene.

Coleen Koski was to North Battleford for medical treatment.

Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, I spent at Milleton Hall at a sewing retreat with the Maidstone Quilting Squares. We had a great time sewing, visiting and eating. It’s always a very enjoyable time.

Thanks to the people who bring us fresh garden vegetables and fruit. They really are appreciated.

Coffee at the suites was enjoyed wishing August birthday people happy birthday. They were Doreen Smart, Angie Ewanowich and myself. No ages were revealed.
