Snowbirds are coming home

Hoping this is the end of the snow. It’s the third storm since the crows came back and brought with them the promise of spring.

The snowbirds are also making their way home.  David and Linda Chick arrived home this week from three months in Osoyoos. They spent the winter touring and taking part in the activities offered in their condo.  En route home, they visited with Bob and Kay McKee in Claresholm.

Ken and Donna Godbersen also arrived home this week from a three-month stay in the Yuma area.  They stopped in Brooks to visit Donna’s dad, Jack Fowler and family on their way back.  They met up with Greg and Teresa Godbersen and with Jason and Carla Wetter in Phoenix when they attended a Coyotes hockey game in February.

We send sympathy out to Irene Duncan and family on the passing of her son, Dewey on March 19 in Ontario.  A memorial service will be held at a later date.

National volunteer week commences on April 12.  Be sure to thank the local volunteers.
