Trella Hemmerly – 1984-01-23

Monday, January 23, 1984
Call from Carroll Elsey wakened me. Wanted to talk so met him at shop- He’s contemplating suicide but Phil Boyd told him to find someone to love – So he picked me! – Told him I didn’t have time in my life for complications just as David walked in – Karen had visit to Dr. Davidorf in Columbus, her good eye is showing streaks. Will go in for freezing surgey tomorrow AM. They had Susannah – all smiles & blue grey eyes. We went to Gladies for lunch & to Guys & Dolls for gifts for all kids. When I called to see if my car was ready (took it in at 11:00) – no one had worked on it all day. Had it in for shock absorbers. When I god home Barb Cornwall called – I forgot to go to Eastlawn Manor to help her with Birthday Party.

Wrote letters to Jean Reeder, Iris Runyon, Doris Fogelson, Pauline Chambers – Uncle Allen. Sorted Bickel information that Jean R. send.

Called Dr. Whitman at Mt. Gilead to come to Board Meeting about Jim Thorpe book. Picked Mary Brocklesby up to take her – stopping on way to copy things at shop.

After board meeting Dick Carey suggested some MCHS members raise the money to publish Dr. Whitman’s book. He pledged $500 & I matched it.
