News From Cattail Creek
By Mrs. Neva Renaldo
Tho’ many of our folks have
flown south--we still had a fine
turn out for our Annual Labor
Day covered dish dinner.
We were happy to have
Percy and Ethel Threadgill as
special guests of the Sr. Keith
Phillips.
Also Mrs. Griggs and her
daughter Thomasina who is a
well known Interior Decorator in
New York and Atlanta came.
The Griggs are new residents at
the Fairview Condominiums at
Grassy Creek Country Club and
were some of the special guests
of Neva Renaldo.
Labor Day just happened to
be the birthday of Mrs. Swen
Karmark so the occasion was
celebrated with a lovely birth
day cake baked by Kathryn
Walters and Helen Underwood
who are par excellent cooks.
It was a pleasant evening.
Now with the newly tuned piano
we were able to sing many of the
old familiar and popular songs.
The flowers for the table
decorations were provided by
the George Porters. Incidental
ly, the Porters not only
produced beautiful flowers all
summer but had an outstanding
garden they shared with most of
us. Thanks, George and Belle.
The Clubnouse Grounds
were put in apple pie order by
our president, Joe Ward, his
lovely wife and the Roger
Deweys. We are grateful for all
your efforts.
Joycelyn Brookshire and her
daughter Linda are here from
Eastern North Carolina visiting
with Joycelyn’s father, R. B.
Walters.
Jimmy and Sandy Baden
who were married earlier this
summer in Miami are here to
spend most of Labor Day week
with Jim’s family, the Tom
Badens.
It’s nice to see Tom Baden
and Swen Karmark back in
circulation after their recent
hospitalization. As I understand
it they both have to live within
certain limits.
The Dr. Gahagens have their
cabin to themselves again after
a constant stream of company
all summer.
