Raffle

Happy Bucks
Nate’s theme/question…what your favorite thing about fall is.
Darlyne E. – Father’s birthday was on Halloween and EVERYONE in family dressed up. Thus her semi-professional, sort of clown character.
Bob H. - was happy to hear all of the laughter in this group
Char M. – October 1, 1971, was a memorable day as Char & her husband created a combined family of 5, which have created many happy memories and a lot of grandchildren!
Bennett R. – Cake! That’s pretty straightforward.
Frank B. – a good friend made her transition, and he will be able to attend her funeral.
Alexa R. – I think she asked for (or affirmed) patience.
Ron U. - Last, but not least, we have two Raccoon Wrangler’s in our bunch. Nate & Ron shared their separate adventures. Ron & Mary waited out the adventure with a bottle of wine. Alexa just stood at a distance and let Nate be the wrangler. Mary said, “hey Ron let’s break out the wine and watch the show!” I personally like that approach!
Program
