Birthday cake and visits mark Riverside notes
Riverside memories share birthday celebrations and visits as residents mark Mrs. Gerot’s centennial and other local events. Barbara Bake sends cake to Mrs. Gerot in Iowa City while families visit Anna Heck, Bess Prehoda, Mary Lukavsky, and Alma Rumelhart on various dates. Edward Bushek leaves Mercy Hospital after 12 days as other residents travel, welcome a new baby Jon Michael Horak, and St Mary’s Parish Council members are announced with duties starting January 1, 1969. Foresters meet at St Marys school with prizes won by Irma Heitzman and Zelda Shebek.
