For the 11 years since Denyce and I got engaged, we've been doing the usual thing common to most young couples — juggling which holidays to spend where and with which side of which family. With Denyce's dad's side? With Denyce's mom's side? Or can we make it to California to be with Rob's folks?
But one thing was very consistent — Thanksgiving was always with Denyce's dad's side. For reasons few can probably explain, Denyce's dad's side of the family has consistently had exactly one whole-family get-together per year. Not Christmas, or Easter, or any other holiday. It was Thanksgiving or bust.

Brothers and sisters, this is one of our alumni, Curtis Baker, writing to us about the church in Slaton. There have been two congregations there for some years, but the Division Street congregation grew old and few and gave the building to the other group. This is the grand opening. Perhaps you would like to join them on April 11 at 3 p.m. for their moving in. I’m planning to go. Let’s encourage them if we can.
You are invited to the reopening of the Church of Christ in Slaton on April 11th. It will be at 3pm. There will be a worship service followed by a cookies and snacks afterward. The address of the building is 340 W Division St. It is on the corner of 11th and Division.

Dear Friends and Family,
At approximately 9:30 this morning, Connie took her last breath.
The phrase 'Lord, make me a blessing to someone today' is on a plaque above our kitchen sink. This was Connie's favorite saying and she tried each and every day to do just that. So many of you have been a great blessing to both of us over the past several months and I can't thank you enough for being there for us in our time of need. The memorial service will be Saturday, August 30th at Torkelson Funeral Home at 2224 S. Supeior St, Tomah, WI. I will send out another e-mail when times are finalized.

This concerns the Dana and Connie Crohn family that graduated in May 2002. Connie has been dealing with cancer now for a long time and this is the report I just received on her. Please remember them in your prayers as they walk through this journey.
This was the previous email dated August 1.
Dear Friends and Family,
The result of the P.E.T. scan on Tuesday is that Connie's cancer is not only active again but has
spread throughout her body. She has been turned over to Hospice care with the goal of making her time
left as comfortable as possible. The oncologist estimates that she has 6 months left. Again thank you
all for all the love and care you have shown us over these past months. We love you all and God Bless.
Dana

Connie's health is deteriorating faster than first predicted. She is
in the hospital right now but will be coming home tomorrow (Friday). They now estimate her time left to be 2-3 weeks.
She is doing well now, but we are told that she will be getting
weaker and less able to communicate as she nears the end of this life. Once
