Branch 352 Coraopolis, PA by Dora S. McKinsey Happy Thanksgiving everyone! It's hard to believe that it's turkey time once again. My, the year sure went fast. May you and your family have a very blessed Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is the time of year when we are reminded to give thanks for all that God has given us. We have much to be thankful for. I am especially thankful for my fam­ily and the close bond we have. My hope and prayer is that all of us rec­ognize our blessings and share what we can with those less fortunate. We celebrate Veterans Day on Nov. 11. Let us remember those who have sacrificed so much for our free­dom. Remember to thank a veteran for his or her service to our country. Branch 352 will be holding its Christmas party for branch juvenile members on Sunday, Nov. 19, at Sports Haven Bowl in Bridgeville, Pa., beginning at noon. All juvenile members should try to attend and enjoy a day of bowling fun. We are also conducting a food drive as we have done in the past. Please be generous in donating nonperishable food items for the local food bank. Your help is much needed and appreciated. Branch 352 applauds another branch member who is a recipient of a William Penn Fraternal Associa­tion Scholarship Foundation grant. He is Nicolas Mondor. Congratula­tions! College students are so ap­preciative of the money they receive from the Scholarship Foundation. Please remember to donate to the Scholarship Foundation so that future generations of scholars can benefit. The above picture was taken at a recent Stiletto Sprint held to raise money for ovarian cancer research. My brother-in-law, Rich Smith, sprinted in stilettos and dress in memory of my sister Cindy who passed away from ovarian cancer in February of this year. It's important for women to know the early warn­ing signs of ovarian cancer since it's one of the many cancers whose symptoms don't become known until it is in an advanced stage and harder to cure. Happy Birthday to all those cel­ebrating a birthday this month. May you be blessed with many more, and may all of them be healthy. Our heartfelt condolences to anyone who has lost a loved one recently. May your memories help you through this difficult time. Don't forget to turn your clocks back one hour on Nov. 5 and enjoy an extra hour of sleep.
