NORTHWEST LABOR PRESS | December 18 , 2015 | PAGE 23 Happy Holidays from Letter Carriers Branch 82 Santa’s Helpers for 240 Years! CHRISTMAS SPIRIT: Ed and Mary Kilburn took home the Mt. Scott Homeowners Association’s Griswold Award for best decorated house during the holiday season. The award is in reference to Clark Griswold in the National Lampoon movie Christmas Vacation. Ed is a retired 57- year member of Plumbers and Fitters Local 290, and Mary once be- longed to United Food and Commercial Workers Local 555. Ed said his wife does all the work — including crawling on the roof of their two- story home to hang lights from the gutters. Kilburn has lived in the in Southeast Portland home since 1971, but Mary only began decorating the yard for Christmas three years ago. “I guess I found there’s still a little bit of kid left in me,” she said. Mary also discovered that her adult daugh- ter, who is mentally delayed, enjoys the display. Mary said she started small, with only a few lights. She took advantage of after-Christmas sales to buy more lights, and then added larger-than life inflatable snowmen, teddy bears, and dogs, and glowing candy canes to the mix. This year it took her three weeks to set up.
