Branch 34 Pittsburgh, PA by Andy McNelis Hope everyone is enjoying their summer and getting ready for the golf outing, Hungarian Heritage Experience, our 125th Anniversary Gala and last, but certainly not least, the WPA Picnic-A Great Fraternal Fest in September. Hope to see everyone again at these enjoyable functions. Speaking of enjoyable events, the first Tri-State Area Picnic held on Saturday, June 25, at Scenic View was a success. The weather held up and a nice number of branches were able to participate. The food was good, as usual, thanks to our cooks and everyone who worked so hard to make the day enjoyable. I am sure that next year we will have more participation once the word spreads. Congratu­lations to Julia Wallace (pictured) on making her first commu­nion and on her many ac­complishments in athletics. She is the great niece of Maria Bistey and goddaughter of Kathy Wal­lace. Our sympathy goes out to Marge Bugielski on the death of her sister. May she rest in peace. Marguerite and 1 participated in the Race for the Cure held on Moth­er's Day. It is truly amazing to see more than 30,000 people at Schenley Park getting ready to either run or walk the 5K. It was a great way to start off the day. We also participated in the Walk for a Healthy Community held on May 21. The Home Office graciously and generously sponsored us, with the proceeds going to the Ronald McDonald House Charity. Happy and healthy birthday wishes to everyone celebrating their birthdays in July, especially Dono­van and Andy. Many, many more.

Rakoczy-Przywara It's the 4th of July....Let us not forget ALL those who served our great country and those who continue to serve. We especially pray for the return of the many still serving in foreign lands. May they all return home safely. We live in the land of the free, only because of the brave. God bless our military! I'm look­ing forward to many events here in Windber honoring all those who fought for our freedom. If you are among the many travel­ers who will be hitting the high­ways to celebrate the 4th, please be safe. Many of you, I'm sure, will be having family gatherings, with hot dogs, hamburgers, etc. in abundance. Personally, when I was growing up in Mine 30, my dad would start the fire early, and we always had a traditional bacon fry (szalonna sütés). My mouth is watering just thinking about those wonderful memorable days. Additionally, sometime we would have the Hungarian-style shish kabob. I love the 4th and all the pag­eantry that it represents-flying the flag, parades in every city or town, picnics, and just good clean Ameri­can fun. My only child, daughter Pam, will be celebrating her 40th birthday on July 12.1 don't know where the years went since 1971. She is plan­ning a special trip to California to celebrate her milestone day with relatives there. So, happy 40th birth­day, Pam! Luv, ya! The Class of 1956 from Windber High School (and I am one of them) will be getting together for their 55th high school reunion on July 1 and 2 here in Windber. Many will be traveling from far-away places, and I wish them safe travels and a great time at the reunion. I want to extend best wishes to all who are celebrating birthdays, anni­versaries and other special occasions in July. Please always keep the military in your daily prayers, and remember all the faithful departed members of your families. I look forward to the day when I will be reunited with all those in my family who have gone to rest. Please remember the annual WPA Picnic-A Great Fraternal Fest at Scenic View in Rockwood, Pa., near Somerset, this coming Sept. 17, from noon to 6:00 p.m. I know it will be a memorable experience! 22 0 July 2011 0 William Penn Life
