L O C A L news & stuff,.. mostly stuff.
----------------------
Obviously the folks at AIDA's Mexican Family Restaurant were just
trying out their new "OPEN" signs the other day. According to their
advertisement in Mondays Weekly Source. They are officially opening
"TODAY" Tuesday, January 30th.
The city of Grafon now offers two (2) official Mexican Food
restaurants. And, of course we shouldn't forget the fabulous South of
the Border dishes offered at JR's Bar in Oakwood, every Wednesday night.
I'm not really into Mexican food, most of it turns my behind into a blow
torch, however,.. I've been told, by those that know, JR's Burritos are
the best you can get,... north of the border..(the south one)
-----------------------
If your the kind of person that believes memories are wonderul. Your
also the kind of person interested in preserving memories of the past,
for those in the future. Heritage Village does just that. I am please to
share the following note from Heritage Village regarding their last
"fund-raising" venture at Generations.
>> Heritage Village Fish Fry Fundraiser <<
Gary,
Heritage Village Board members are very pleased with the turnout of the
1st ever Fish Fry Fund-raiser that was held in the lower lever of
Generations, Fri. Jan 26.
We served about 140. Actually, we ran out of Walleye. We had no idea
of how many to prepare for. Next time we will try for a larger crowd. We
hope to run another one in March. A big thank you to all who donated
time and items for this event. Without the support of our dedicated
board and all the businesses who donated items for this, this would not
have been possible for us to do.
Thank you again, and hope to see you in March. I will email you when we
have established a date.
Thank you
Heritage Village Board of Directors <<<
Thanks a million for caring and sharing.
--------------------------
Caring and sharing is the foundation upon which the Gazette was
started. It cleanses the soul and eases the mind.
With that in mind, I am pleased to join John and Agnes sharing their
memories.
>>> Good morning Gary... I am writing IN MEMORY of OUR DEAR Daughter.
She passed away 20 years ago today (TUESDAY, Jan. 30th). Her name was
RACHEL LYNN BEIER, she was only 16 years old. It was a brain aneurysm so
she left us and this world with no warning. She was an "A" student, in
band, a cheer leader, and a majorette. She worked 2 part time jobs (Getz
Rexall Drug & Granny's), I'm sure many will remember this SAD time. She
left her young brother (Darrin) behind, they were so close. Life has had
it's up and downs since then in our lives, BUT is on the right track
now. Just wanted to share this today as it seems at times like only
yesterday. Thanks for letting me share this. RACHEL'S MOTHER,
Agnes Beier <<<
Thank you so much for caring and sharing Agnes. Our thoughts and
prayers are with you, on this very special day.
------------------------
Speaking of caring and sharing. I received a wonderul letter and a
super contribution from Ron LaMont. Ron has found a way to contribute to
two fantastic local organizations. Thanks a million Ron. 5 Grafton Area
Volunteer Firefighters tickets have been purchased, in the name of The
Lutheran Sunset Home, courtesy of Ron LaMont. Already, all three are
winners, and, I hope that trend continues.
ALSO,.. I received a check in the mail requesting two tickets be
purchased in the Grafton Area Volunteer Firefighters name, in memory of
a special person. I was also asked to not include the names in the
Gazette. Of course, I will honor that request as well. However, I'll
never forget those wonderful individuals either.
-------------------------
I received a special request from the subscription department, (me). I
would really appreciate a little more information than just a email
address for those wishing the Gazette. A name (a real one) address AND,
if possible a little bit about you would be fantastic. If you prefer I
not welcome you "personally" in the Gazette, that's fine, it happens
often.
Without a name and address, it does get difficult trying to figure out
the right letter to use in my rolodex. If you know what I mean.
==================================
GOTTA - GO - WORK - ON - MY - DASH
==================================


Write if you can, call if you can't, and, tell your loved ones they are,
before it's too late.
