Sunday, October 24, 1982
In at 11:00 for last minute touches. Erma Hutchman – Mildred Grigsby & Margaret Uncapher had spiced cider & wheat cracker ready to serve. Everything in apple pie order. People started coming before 12. About 225 lines filled on guest book – many were families & not all signed – I think between 400 & 500 were there. Mary came to take pictures. I gave “remarks” along with Ron Malone, Mayor, Judge Charton Myers, master of ceremonies. I said Society was found by members of his adult education class – not by him (last fact not mentioned). Phil Boyd there with his girl friend & her 3 kids. Dave Decker helped out.
Cottrells, Gary Barnhart, Phyllis Malo & I to Turroff’s for supper with Mary, Ken & Dave.
Very satisfying day – Another goal accomplished.
Nice day but only about 60.
