Kathy and John
M arick, ow ners o f the
W illow Creek D iner and

party for their d au g h ter
A bbie, and secretly, for
patron Skip Connor. This
event took place Monday,
May 31 at 6 p.m . Even
though Connor’s brother-in-
law and son came and a
friend wished him, “Happy
Birthday” he did not catch
on for several minutes later.
There were about 70
people there, as far away as
R ich lan d ,
B oardm an,
Dayville, lone, Lexington
and Hermiston. This was all
hosted by the owners, the
M aricks. The theme was
fishing with several fish
banners hanging around and
fish were “swimming” along
the wall. They served cold
cuts, homemade deli rolls, a
veggie tray, beef sticks,
cheese slices, olives, spring
rolls and burritos (made by
Bill and Becky Morris) and
chips with dip and choice of
drinks. Two fish-shaped
cakes were made of cherry
chip J e ll- 0 cake and
cupcakes made in ice cream
cones had gummy worms
coming out of them. There
was also a special “dog
house” cake with Connor’s
picture in it that was served
