Branch 28 Youngstown, OH by Kathy Novak It's so hard to believe Santa's going to be visiting everyone again so soon, but the calendar is showing the most joyous season is fast approaching. In conjunction with our Nov. 11 meeting, 57 members were recognized for 50 years of membership in the WPA. Each eligible member received a commemorative pin, certificate and small handouts. A social with a buffet table was held prior to the regular business meeting. If any member has questions about their years of membership, please contact me so we can look into the records. Our annual Christmas party will Branch News be held on Dec. 7. The details of this festive event will appear in next month's report. We'll also publish the names of the raffle winners and the list of 2003 branch officers next month. With the assistance of the Home Office, Branch 28 will once again participate in the Holiday Basket program. The officers will be making sure two families and local charitable groups will be receiving some assistance during the holiday season. With all the festive celebrations taking place, we don't want to forget to wish everyone having a birthday or anniversary a very special day of enjoyment. As always, but especially at this time of year, we remember with special thoughts and prayers those who have recently lost a loved one. May the love and peace of this holy season be shared by all our families and friends. Best wishes for a heartwarming Christmas season.

We wish you all long, happy and successful lives.

We wish you many joyous years of retirement, when the time comes.
