We have everyone celebrating St. Patrick's Day, then we welcome the arrival of spring. As the month closes, we celebrate Easter. We hope all our members in the northeastern states survived the winter blast they got in February. What a great time the Hungarian Arts Club provided for those attending its annual White Rose Ball in Dearborn, Mich. The presentation of debutantes is such a wonderful event to witness. This year, the Club honored WPA National Vice President-Fraternal Endre Csornán. He is so well deserving of this honor. There to share the moment of fame was his entire family. Thanks to Branch 18 for making us all feel so welcome. The Youngstown American Hungarian Federation will be hosting a program to commemorate the events of the 1848 Hungarian War of Independence. The event will be held Sunday, March 17, at 2:30 p.m. at the Youngstown American Hungarian Club House, 2219 Donald Ave. The program will include traditional poems and songs. This year, a film will be shown in place of a guest speaker. It's not too early to be making plans to attend the WPA Picnic-A Great Fraternal-Fest. Call Steve at 330-746-7704 or Frank at 330-549- 2935 to make your reservations for our bus trip. Congratulations to Alice Nagy on her recent retirement after teaching for 34 years.

Tollas, Margie Sams and Daniel Stack (son of David and Gloria Purton Stack) and Joan Mauerman. Sincere condolences to all those who have recently lost a loved one.

Branch 34 Pittsburgh, PA by Marguerite McNelis Congratulations, Endre Csornán, for being the guest of honor at the White Rose Ball. It was great seeing the Csornán family, especially Arlene. It was nice to see so many beautiful young women and handsome young men participating in this event again. It was also enjoyable spending time with our friends from Branch 18. So good seeing Doug out and about! Thanks to everyone for the great hospitality. The Rhapsody dinner was delicious, as usual. A special "Happy Birthday" to branch members Mitzi Berei, our nephew Bob Healy III, Helen Henkel and Becky Williams. May you have many more. Extra special birthday wishes go to my husband Andy. Love you very much. Birthday wishes go out to all branch members celebrating their birthdays. We hope that you all are happy and healthy. Please take a moment and pray for all our service men and women, especially those in harm's way. Our deepest sympathy goes out to Elsie Radvany and family on the passing of Frank J. Radvany. He will be sorely missed. He was a true gentleman and fratemalist. God speed. Also, please remember all of our deceased members in your prayers. Congratulations to Terry Anglin's grandson Johnny for being chosen to compete in the Math Competition at Freedom Middle School. I know that your grandmother is very proud of you. Congratulations also go to Donovan McNelis for making the honor roll again. Way to go! Get well wishes go out to Helen Henkel, who broke her shoulder. Hope you are doing much better. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone who is experiencing health issues. At our Christmas party, we held our annual election of officers. Elected were: Andrew McNelis, president; Gary Vámos, vice president; Marguerite McNelis, secretarytreasurer; and Rebecca Williams and Nicole Healy, auditors.
