Reports/Misc.

It was reported this evening, that Hannah Cherry, the mother of former School Board member, Albertine Dent, passed away on Saturday. The obituary should be in the paper tomorrow.

My Take:

Congratulations to the Scholarship recipients !

Hannah Cherry was such a nice lady, who really loved my homemade black raspberry jam. I made sure she was the first person to get a jar, every year. She was such a sweet and gracious lady, and will be sorely missed. RIP, Mrs. Cherry !

On a side note, I might not be covering some meetings, as my old Buick fell apart on Calumet Avenue by Hammond High, this morning. I have to depend on rides, for the time being. I want to also thank the two young men from HHS, who helped me. It was most appreciated, as I was bringing my grandson home from Head Start, when the Buick went kaput. THANK YOU,GUYS !!! :D

I bought an old used vehicle this afternoon. It needs brakes, and a couple of other things, but the engine is sound. I will be back on the road again by next week. :D
