Barbara Strothers ____________________ 1-27-lp We would like to thank all those involved in selecting us for Man and Woman of the Year. First, a thank you to Forrie Burkenbine, who planted the idea in our daughter Merry’s head, then went south for six weeks. Forrie and Gail escaped all the fibbing, downright lying, subter fuge and finagling that went on before our names were finally announced at the Town and County Banquet. Second, a thank you to those very gracious people who wrote letters recommending our names to the Chamber of Commerce. Each letter brought tears to our eyes. The acting ability in this town is incredible. There are a few who deserve Academy Awards: Pat Edmundson, Suzanne Jepsen and our sons and their families, our daughter Kathy, and especially Merry and Russell. This has been a very humbling experience and we thank the whole community. There are a lot of families who do what we do to help others and a friend put it in perspective when she said, “Yes, there are, but it was your turn to be thanked.” Bob and Aloha DeSpain 1 -27-lc NOTICES Free counseling for victims of abuse and sexual assault. 24 hr.
