Happy Birthday Marlene Richard Parslow (’65): River Falls, WI
The kids in the front……Murl (Watkins) Hill, not sure who the dark haired girl is – again, I’d guess a sister of Emery, if he has that many – the cute little girl in plain in front of Murl is her sister Elaine Watkins, then Mickey Haagenson, Curtis Gunderson….and that’s the extent of MY knowledge.
Oh – except for my Great Grandma Ellen Amundson…..she is behind Helen – her face is to the immediate right of Helen’s. I think we still have the hat she’s wearing in this photo – it gets worn at tea parties w/the grandkids at Crystal’s.
Guess I don’t make it into the running for Aggie’s ‘honorary historian’ award!!!

Emery and Carol Carbonneau’s wedding Photo
Reply from Aime Casavant (’66): Jamestown, ND
Gary,
Wow, now if we can name all the people in the photo of Emery and Carol Carbonneau’s wedding, that would be quite an accomplishment. I think I know two besides Emery and Carol. The second man from the right in the back, I believe is Art Fugere. The man first man from the left (short, stout) in Emery Carbonneau line I think is August Dionne. Anyone who can name a dozen would be “Honorary Historian of Dunseith,” in my opinion. Emery Jr and Ann (Carbonneau) McConnel might know or some of Johnny Hills children?

An Irish priest was transferred to Texas .
Father O’Malley rose from his bed one morning. It was a fine spring
day in his
new west Texas mission parish. He walked to the window of his bedroom to
get a deep breath of the beautiful day outside. He then noticed there was
a jackass lying dead in the middle of his front lawn. He promptly called
the local police station.
The conversation went like this:
“Good morning. This is Sergeant Jones. How might I help you?”
“And the best of the day te yerself. This is Father O’Malley at St. Ann ‘s
Catholic Church. There’s a jackass lying dead in me front lawn and would
ye be so kind as to send a couple o’yer lads to take care of the matter?”
Sergeant Jones, considering himself to be quite a wit and
recognizing the foreign accent, thought he would have a
little fun with the good father, replied, “Well now Father,
it was always my impression that you people took care of the last rites!”
There was dead silence on
the line for a long moment…….
Father O’Malley then replied: “Aye,’tis certainly true; but we are
also obliged
to notify the next of kin first, which is the reason for me call.”
