House As I write this report, I am back in Michigan for a wonderful event. The Hungarian Arts Club has chosen to honor WPA National Vice President- Fraternal Endre Csornán during its annual White Rose Ball. They could not have picked a more deserving person. Endre always works hard to keep WPA so very visible. What a wonderful week it was. Thank you to the Hungarian Rhapsody restaurant and to Steve, Darlene, Jennifer and all their employees for serving such a wonderful dinner on the Friday evening before the Ball. Thank you to Ursula, Tamas and all the members of the Hungarian Arts Club committee for organizing another successful Ball. Thank you also to all the WPA Official Family members who made the trip to Michigan and for making Endre feel so special. And, thank you to Father Barnabas for being a great WPA supporter. I cannot wait for the 2014 Ball. Happy 19th anniversary to Father Barnabas and Father Angelus. It sure doesn't seem like you have been with us for so long. We hope it will be 19 more. Branch 18 resumes its monthly meetings on Wednesday, April 10 at 7:00 p.m. We meet at the Hungarian American Cultural Center on Goddard Road. We hope to see you there. We will be finalizing plans for our June trip to the Quad cities. Please let me know if you plan to join us. Join Hands Day is Saturday, June 1. Please mark that on your calendars. It's so much easier to get a big job done with many hands. Besides that, participating makes you feel so great. Happy birthday to all our March members, especially Dustyn Allanson, Joan Rectenwald, Cassie Holmes, Andy McNelis, Helen Molnár, Roger Nagy, Stephanie Martincsek, Kathy Reitlinger, Ursula Markovits, Jennifer Sullivan and, last but not least, my husand and Gabby's dad, Tom House. (We love you.) May you all have many more. I have reserved my spot on WPA's trip to Hungary and Transylvania. I hope you consider joining us. We have so many wonderful plans for you. But, before then, I hope you are planning to join us for our annual family bowling weekend. Last year was so much fun. Being in a casino offers many things to take up your time. It is also Kentucky Derby weekend. The whole event was fun from start to finish. Please put this on your list of things to do. Get well wishes to Doug Truesdell (it sure was great to see you at the Rhapsody), Rose and Art Antal, Joan Parete, Ann Kertész, A1 and Olga Wansa, Janet Totsky and Tillie Balogh. I hope you all join us real soon. Please remember in your prayers our deceased members and their families, especially Dorothy Kayko, Margaret Hopp and Mary Batyik. May they rest in peace. Thank you, Helen Molnár, for being such a great surrogate daughter and sister to my mom and I, respectively. You are appreciated. I hope you plan on joining our trip to Europe. I can always be reached at my cell number, 313-418-5572. I hope I will see you all very soon. Think bowling, branch meeting, June trip, Europe trip and Spring! William Penn Life ° March 2013 ° 19
