Mrs. George Walker of 61xx Washington reports that her husband had been convalescing recently.
On September 6, she left him sitting comfortably on the front porch to go and do errands.
He suddenly became very ill. Luckily, the regular letter carrier, Fred, was just coming up the walk. Fred assisted Mr. Walker and summoned medical help.
The Walkers are very grateful to him. Meredith Lynne Littlejohn was born on September 2.
She is the daughter of Stefanie London and Steve Littlejohn and new sister of Charles and Madeline, all of the 6100 block of Kingsbury. Meredith has a full head of beautiful dark hair which she showed off on her I week birthday at a back yard farewell party for Gee and Cal Stuart. At that gathering Gee tooled around in her wheelchair, a temporary conveyance necessitated by leg surgery she had in August.
She cleverly scheduled this emergency to get out of the heavy work of moving, it is reported.
The Stuarts, virtually an institution in this neighborhood, have moved to a new and more compact home on the Hill. By City ordinance this is as far as the Stuarts are allowed to move from Skinker-DeBaliviere. (See feature on Cal and Gee on page 5.) Lucille Schoemehl of 61xx McPherson underwent surgery in early September.
Her family report that she is doing fine. Marty Storey, son of George and Rosemarie Storey, earned his MBA last May. Sorry we missed this in our June report.
For the second year in a row, Andy Cross and his friends received a richly-deserved award from Operation BrightSide for their dumpster beautification program. Catherine Forslund recently returned from Washington, DC, where she conducted research for her dissertation.
She interviewed a variety of officials and bureaucrats, including Strom Thurmond.
The Skinker DeBaliviere Housing Corporation has hired Jeffrey Lodermeier to be the resident manager at Rosedale Square. Lodermeier plans to begin graduate studies in January. Archway Communities, located at 56xx Pershing, is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. Rodney Jackson of 53xx Pershing is developing a business designed to assist those of us who do not have the time to do the necessary tasks of everyday life.
He is a personal executive concierge and will take cars to be serviced, chauffeur children to activities, and take people to and from the airport.
He still has a full-time job but hopes eventually to make this venture his principal occupation.
He has references and is at 361-5692.
