TESTVÉRISÉG Page 16 PENNSYLVANIA NEWS Mrs. Helen Kayatin of Branch 226, Rickeyville, PA, has been a branch manager for approximately 40 years with the Hungarian Reformed Federation of America. She is active in the Daisytown Presbyterian Church working in the Ladies' Aid and visiting members who are in nursing homes. She has also served in the ladies' auxiliary of the local fire company. Mrs. Kayatin has two children, four grandchildren and three great-grandchildren who are all members of the HRFA. Over the years she has kept busy by "knitting afgans and crocketing doilies and baby clothes." By the way, she also bowls! Helen is a lovely softspoken woman who graciously services the members of the small branch just outside of Brownsville. God bless the dedicated service of such branch managers that faithfully serve the Hungarian Reformed Federation of America. M.C.
