In memory of my darling beloved Mother, Mrs. Louis Tosha, who died April 10, 1965:

Your gentle face and patient smile With sadness I recall,

You had a kindly word for each,

And died beloved by all.

You are not forgotten Mom dear

Nor will you ever be

As long as life and memory lasts,

I will remember you.

I miss you now, my heart is sore,

As time goes by I miss you more Your loving smile, your gentle face No one can ever fill your place.

zation which is not even affiliated with the William Penn Association. It’s the “Magyar Club of Dayton” Ohio, chartered in 1965. The object of the Magyar Club is “Mutual Interest of Hungarian Culture”, and happens to be the most active Hungarian club in Dayton and possibly in the state of Ohio. William Penn Association is well represented among its membership. Through the efforts of one of its founding members and past president, National Director Albert G. Kertesz, the Magyar Club of Dayton has contributed generously to the William Penn Scholarship Foundation in previous years. Perhaps other similar type clubs throughout the country would find it meaningful to duplicate the endeavors of the Magyar Club of Dayton.
