South Woodstock

SOUTH WOODSTOCK — Condolences are going out to the families of Ernest Angevine, Oliver I. Blood, Sr., Rufus S. Rich and Martha Tilda Koskela Lavoir. Thoughts and prayers to each family member.

A good week all around, getting back onto my feet slowly, still seeing the doctor three times a week.

Celebrating birthdays in September are Linnie Roberts, Robert Hurd, Lloyd Poland, Becky Mason, Kenny Wilson, Cathy Mason, Lj Langelier and Mike Lakey. Birthday wishes to each one.

Hubby spent the afternoon out mowing the back forty. It looks good, the rain we got recently really made a big difference - so nice and green where it had started to turn a bit brown from the heat.

Many are attending the fairs this time of year. Good luck to those who are participating in the agriculture part with their livestock and to those who entered their produce harvest.

I so hate it getting dark so early in the evening - makes for a long evening. We have enjoyed sitting outside and enjoying the weather evenings after supper.

A Benefit Dance will be held at the Floyd A. Harlow Hall VFW Post #9787 (East Main St.) in South Paris on Friday, September 21 (POW/MIA Day). Dance starts at 7 p.m. and goes to 10 p.m.

Admission for the dance will be $5. Refreshments will be on sale throughout the evening, serving up your favorite items. There will be a 50/50 drawing and raffles. Lolalee & The Country Bandits will be providing the music for your dancing pleasure.

They play a variety of music from traditional country, rock & roll, big band era, new country and oldies.

All proceeds to benefit Post #9787 so grab your hats and shine those dancing shoes, and come on down and join your friends and neighbors for a fun-filled evening.

That's all from the valley this week, take care and enjoy each day.
