appreciation event
in cemetery q¢
What better location to hold an ap-
preciation event than near the object of
appreciation.
This was the thinking of
Northbranch community members
when they gathered recently at
Northbranch Cemetery for an evening
of eating and visiting to celebrate the
completion of a new fence constructed
at the cemetery.
"Surely this must be a first," said
one of the participants.
The event was planned to show
appreciation to those who donated
money and labor--or both--to install
the fencing.
A brush pile had already accumu-
lated in the unused portion of the cem-
etery and was u~ed for the fire for the
wiener roast, and marshmallow toast-
ing. Watermelon and hot chocolate
completed the menu.
There didn't seem to be any ghost
stories floating around in the crowd--
just a good time for catching up on
some visiting with neighbors and co-
workers.
Organizers praised monetary do-
