Lions Club notice – The Rippey Lions Club will hold its regular meeting Thursday, Feb. 21, at the Rippey United Methodist Church. The meal will be served at 7 pm by Maralynn Rinker and Nancy Hanaman. Rick Fazel will present the program.
Surprise visit – Connie Neese was pleasantly surprised this week when she received a visit from her first cousin and husband, Linda and David Gustafson. They were traveling from California to their home in Duluth, MN, after spending a few months touring in the warmer states. It had been many years since the women had seen each other and a lot of catching up was enjoyed.
Visit family – Dale and Nancy Hanaman have ventured to northern Wisconsin to visit with Matthew Hanaman and Heather Lee and family in Eau Claire. They report it is really frigid and there is much more snow piled on the ground and the rooftops than at home. They hope to travel home between weather events this week.
