What a frigid day, Saturday, as I sit and type my news.  Supposed to get some pretty cold weather, so bundle up if you’re going out.

I missed the end of the year birthdays last week, so here they are.

Happy Birthday to V Rev Mother Christophora and Christian Santarelli, 19th; Alyssa Pequignot, 20th; Everlyn Brumwell, 21st; Kaeleigh McDonald and Lillie Ann Bahr, 23rd; and Ginny Stavisky, 31st,  Hope you all had or will have a great day.

Sympathy from the community to the family, relatives and many, many friends of Mary Lowden who passed away on the 19th after her hard fought battle with ALS.   She touched many people’s lives with her kindness, laughter and just being a good person.  Taken way too soon and she will certainly be missed by all who  knew her.

St. Vladimir’s Church has pierogies for sale the first and third Sunday of the month.  They can be picked up at the Church Hall from Noon to 1 p.m..  To order call 732-221-2803.

MERRY CHRISTMAS one and all.  HAPPY, HEALTHY NEW YEAR too.   Enjoy the holidays with family and friends.  

Thanks to John and Chris for allowing me to write my news for the past year.  It’s been fun and I’ve enjoyed the comments I’ve gotten.  Hope the Sully staff has a very Merry Christmas.

This is the last paper until the New Year, but if you do have news you’d like in, call me at 570-928-9238; mail me; see me; or e-mail me at news@lopezpa.com.  I will get it in for you.  Thanks for reading and I’ll be here next time.
