Historical June 1985 report or notice. Original dates, prices and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.
On Monday, May 7, the Rosedale Neighborhood Association held a meeting, chaired by President Arline Webb, 6100 Pershing, in the St. Roch’s cafeteria.
The highlights of the meeting included an update on the Rags to Riches (see more information in this issue); an introduction of the new Skinker DeBaliviere Community Council Director, Nancy Farmer; and an Operation Brightside presentation. Rita Navarro, formerly of the People’s Clinic was also introduced at the meeting.
She will be heading up the Community School at Hamilton.
A delicious sampling of desserts followed the meeting which was well attended.
Speaking of Brightside, our Blitz weekend was a “sparkling” success on May 18th.
The event was well orchestrated thanks to the efforts of the Brightside office and especially because of our super Regional Chairman, Bruce Yampolsky (of DeBaliviere Place and Doughboys) and our great local Area Commander Sam Green, 6100 Westminster, with a lot of help from Nancy Farmer. Tom Hoerr, 6100 Kingsbury, director of New City School was “busting his buttons” when he reported that New City, 5209 Waterman, was named an A+ school by Instructor Magazine.
On May 24th, Mayor Schoemehl presented Tom with the award from Instructor at an assembly at the school where certificates were given to all the staff and children and there were also “presentations” by the children.
They had balloons, stickers, and T-shirts announcing their A+ status.
On the subject of our neighbor the mayor, Vince was aboard one of TWA’s inaugural flights to Europe. Vince and sister Lou Green, head of Operations Brightside, as well as Nancy Rice, 6100 Westminster, Director of Parks, Recreation and Forestry took the flight to France and spent two weeks visiting there and in Ireland. Jill McGuire, 6100 Westminster, the new head of the City-County Humanities Commission was also able to take one of the inaugural flights. Rick Wilt, 6100 McPherson, took a trip to Guatamala and Belize at the end of April. Rick, an avid bird-watcher, spent a lot of time watching birds, but was also able to do some pyramid-climbing and snorkeling. John Nunley, 6100 McPherson, a curator at the St. Louis Art Museum spent time this year in Jamaica and the Bahamas doing some background work for his 1987-88 Pre-Lent Carnival Exhibit.
This article last month failed to include Linda Nunley in our report of the “Art St. Louis” exhibition last month in the Globe-Democrat building.
It was her first real showing in the St. Louis area and was quite promising for her. Linda, who teaches art at St. Roch’s School, also took a trip to Port of Spain, Trinidad, in February for their pre-lenten carnival.
We are pleased to announce the premiere of Westminster Communications, Inc.
The business, headed by Marcia Kerz as president and Marj Weir as vice president, both not surprisingly of 6100 Westminster, is located at 1001 Bellevue at Clayton (645-4488).
They are helping organizations build donor-based programs for fund raising.
We wish them much success.
The Reverend Dr. John Doggett, pastor at Grace Methodist, retired in May.
He was honored at a reception there on May 26. Joanna Smith, bookkeeper at St. Roch’s is really being missed there.
She has been ill and has been staying with her niece.
Many thoughts and good wishes are with her.
Congratulations to Stephen Eaker and Barb Lundgren on the birth of their daughter, Brenna, on May 7. Brenna was born at home, 6100 Kingsbury, weighing 8 lb. 10 oz. and is the baby sister of Quinn.
Another congrats to Beth Bender, daughter of Rich and Joan Bender, 6100 Kingsbury.
She graduated from Wheeling College in Wheeling, West Virginia, with a major in history.
She had been vice president of her class. Mother’s Day month brought a couple of out-of-town moms to the neighborhood to visit. Jane Geer’s mother from Massachusetts was visiting Jane and family and Paula Repetto’s mother from Georgia was visiting the Repettos. Both families live in 6100 Kingsbury.
We are pleased to report that Jennifer McComb has found a new home in the Rosedale Condominiums following a recent fire.
Her cats have also recovered from their injuries as a result of the fire, thanks to excellent care by Dr. Stephen Brammeier of the Kingsbury Animal Hospital.
Our deepest condolences to Geneva and Carmen Hornberger, 6100 Waterman on the recent death of their husband and father, Leroy Hornberger. Mark your calendars now for the June 30 Sunday Brunch at the Pasta House to benefit Stella Maris Child Center (Delmar and DeBaliviere). Hope to see you there!
