Branch News nual family Christmas party at 1:00 p.m. at the P.R.C.U. Hall on Oak Street in Wyandotte. All are invited. Your admission is a dessert to pass and food for our furry friends. The animal food will go to the shelter in Brownstown. Santa, a magician, prizes and food will all be included. Hope to see you there. If you would like to set up, you would be most welcome. Branch 18 officers will be there at about 10:00 a.m. I obtained some Hungarian CDs while on our trip. Many of you asked for them. Come and teach us to sing along. Our November branch meeting will be held on Nov. 15 at the Hungarian American Cultural Center on Goddard in Taylor at 6:00 p.m. We look forward to seeing all of you. Happy November birthday to all our members, especially my mom, Irene Gall, on her 95th birthday. She has not been feeling well but she continues to bounce back. My brother and I say she is like the Energizer bunny. Happy birthday, mom. We love you. Happy birthday to National Vice President-Secretary Jerry Hauser, Doris Schvarckopf, Anita Kosaski, Mary Ann Kelly-Lovasz, National Director Michael Chobody, Doug Truesdell, National Sales Director Bob Bisceglia, Denise Hurley, Chris Kovalchuk and Krisztina Kortvesi. You are all so special. We wish you many more. Get well wishes to George and Doris Schvarckopf, Eleanor Kender, Beata Császár, Joe Csereklye and all who are not feeling well. Please remember our deceased members and their families in your prayers; especially Mary Markes, Merced Gonzales Jr., David Antal, Frank Magdalenic and Edward Treso. I hope you all enjoy Thanksgiving surrounded by all your loved ones. This has been a tough year for many people. I hope we all learn to live together. We really have so much to be thankful and grateful for. Thought for the month: My branch is composed of people like me. I help make it what it is. It will be friendly if I am friendly. It will bring others to attend if I invite them. It will be charitable if I am charitable. Our branches can do great work if we all work together. Branch 28 Youngstown, OH by Kathy Novak Can the holidays be sneaking up on us already? Make sure your calendars are marked for Saturday, Dec. 9, for the annual Branch 28 family Christmas party. It will be held at the Aut Mori Grotto Hall, 563 N. Belle Vista Ave., Youngstown beginning at 12:30 p.m. Santa will arrive sometime during the party. All members are invited, but children will receive an invitation in the mail. Don't forget the holiday scholarship raffle will be held that day also. The Franciscan Friary on Belle Vista Avenue was where the commemorative services for the 1956 Revolution were held on Oct. 22. The Hungarian churches of Youngstown will once again hold Thanksgiving ecumenical services. This year, Holy Apostle Parish's St. Stephen of Hungary worship site will host the gathering. Watch church bulletins for day and time. Speaking of Holy Apostle Parish, if looking for a cookbook as a Christmas gift, they have published a new cookbook. If interested, call me at: 330-746-7704 or the parish secretary at 330-743-1905. What a wonderful day the Johnstown Slavic Festival was! It was a pleasure to spend the day with National Director David Kozak, Alexis Kozak and members of Branch 8. Great job to those involved in organizing this event. Perfect weather, great food and nice people is what Branch 296 served at their annual bacon fry. Once again, Hungary was represented at the 8th Annual Chagrin Falls Documentary Film Fest. The movie Cold Warriors was about the reunion of members of a group of Hungarians relocated in the United States after World War II, who prepared for combat if their homeland needed assistance, especially in 1956. It was so nice to see Michele Dye back in Ohio for a visit. Special get well wishes to National Director Joyce Nicholson who broke her arm in a recent auto accident. Hoping all those under the weather these days will soon feel better, especially Jackie Prologo, Irene Nemeth, John Torma and Mary Rose Purton. Whether you are celebrating your birthday or anniversary this month, we hope you have a wonderful day. Special happy 40th wedding anniversary to Paul and Judy Wytko, who celebrated with a trip to Rome. Thoughts and prayers to all the victims of recent disasters and all who have recently lost a loved one. Life insurance and annuity questions? Call Alan at 330-482-9994 or Kathy at 330-746-7704.
