Condolences to the Morin Family
From Rob Olson (79): Grand Forks, ND
 
I just read of Claude’s passing. My condolences to the Richard Morin family-our neighbors for so many years.

Rob Olson

Rob, I don’t have an address for you in my files, but if memory serves me right, you are living in Grand Forks?

In the pic of Salem Church the guy in the 4th pew in the tan jacket is Pete Peterson, my step dad.In the third pew on the other side, you can just see the top of her head, but I think that is Mom, Ruth Peterson.
Can’t make out any others.

Norma, Now that you have recognized him, for me that too is most certainly Pete Peterson. Pete and your mother were very active Metigoshe church members. I saw them often and I remember them well from my childhood days. Your mother was teaching school at different schools when I knew them, but I never had her for a teacher. Your mother is remembered well among our readers as being a wonderful teacher. Pete and Ruth were wonderful folks. I believe you mother is in the Good Samaritan home in Bottineau? Thank you so much for this reply. Folks, please let us know if you recognize any of the others in this picture. Gary

Guy walks into a bar. Bartender says, “What’ll you have?”
Guy says, “I’ll have a Bin Laden.”
Bartender says, “That’s a new one. How do you make it?”
Guy says, “Two shots and a splash.”
