Communion Service and Easter at United Presbyterian Home

Holy Week at the United Presbyterian Home featured a Good Friday communion in the parlor with Dr. Kettlitz and Mr. Guintoli aided by Mrs. Alda Warnock and Mrs. Ruth Nolin. Easter Day brought ideal spring weather, church attendance, family visits, and a choir led evensong. Guests included relatives from Columbus Junction and Portland, Ore., plus locals from Keokuk and Greensburg, Ind. A crafts-based centerpiece and candy favors marked the Easter meals, with many residents and visitors noted throughout the day. A variety night by H girls appeared, and the community bid farewell to Mrs. Hugh Milne after a long illness, with the funeral in the United Presbyterian Church. Ewing Bailey and family visited, recalling ex-missionary ties, as an S.E. Region Town Association meeting eyed an occupational therapist speaker.
