We welcome to the neighborhood Helen Carter and her daughter, Angela, who recently moved into the 6100 block of Westminster. Helen is a nurse at City Hospital and Angela attends Wilson School.
In saying welcome to the Carters, we sadly say goodbye to Rita and Nikki Sweets, who have left Westminster for apartment living. Several neighbors have been fortunate enough to take fall vacations this year. Steve and Marjie Brammeier and their two boys, along with Steve’s parents, vacationed in sunny Florida, spending time in Clearwater and also visiting Disneyworld. Jane Geer and daughter Sarah, 6100 Kingsbury, flew, to Massachussetts to visit Jane’s mom in Long Meadow, a suburb of Springfield. Jane’s husband, Jim, drove up to meet them there, and the Geer family enjoyed a New England vacation visiting New York City, Boston and Connecticut, as well as a stop to visit Jim’s family in New York state.
Mary Powell, 6100 Westminster, caught the gambling fever and spent a short vacation in Las Vegas with the folks from her office.
Congratulations to Sophie McCarthy and Suzie Botz, both of 6100 Kingsbury, who are members of the Incarnate Word volleyball team.
The team won the state tournament in Kansas City on Nov. 13 by defeating Hillsboro. Jan and John Pitts have announced that they are expecting an additional member of the family to arrive in early summer.
The Pittses live on 6100 McPherson.
A belated congratulations to Betty and Bob Newsham, 6100 Kingsbury, on the birth of their first grandchild. Kathleen . Mahoney was born on Aug. 26 to Mimi (Newsham) and Brian Mahoney.
The couple and their new baby reside in South St. Louis.
Our sincerest sympathy is extended to the family of George Greene who passed away recently, but especially to his wife Miriam and their two children who live in the 6000 block of Kingsbury.
On Sunday evening, Nov. 7, a group of neighbors were treated to a simply delightful concert by the St. Louis Brass Quintet at Delmar Baptist Church.
The performance was sponsored by the Neighborhood Arts Council and the Rosedale Neighborhood Association.
This group is comprised not only of fine musicians, but also terrific showmen who made the performance entertaining to all, regardless of musical background or expertise.
A small reception for the performers and audience was held afterwards by the Rosedale Neighborhood Association.
It was a super evening and we certainly hope to see more like it! Wishing all of you very happy, hopeful and peaceful holidays.
