Bits & Pieces Friday 5-29-2020

 Rosie Pfaff is asking for prayers for her son who is a policeman in Minneapolis. He is right in the middle of the trouble going on. He is where the precinct is burning. Also prayers for her grandson and granddaughter who are also policemen there. Her Granddaughter is a doctor and she had to close her clinic because of it. That is how close she is. Get the prayer wheel spinning for Rosie's family and for the troubles stopping.


Belinda Avalos's mother-in-law passed away this week. For those of you that haven't been to Trophy for a few years, Belinda is the business office manager. She has been here for 7 years.


Keep the prayer wheel spinning for those that need it.

Here's the Deal

During the summer months when the population at Trophy Gardens is less than optimal it can be a challenge to post things of interest so I will now and then post things of my interest. My sister-in-law, Keri, sent me this youtube video mainly because Butch is a squirrel warrior and she knew he would enjoy it. I hope you enjoy it too. It is long but worth it if you have a sufficient sense of humor.

PS: You can send me things to put on too. 😊

I got a text today telling me that Marion Petro passed away today. She was 93 years old. To send cards to the family, send it to John Petro, 16520 Skyline Dr., Tindley Park, IL. 60477

Correction: Address for Adele Pulliam: 10600 E 13th St N. Apt 705.  Wichita, KS 67206 It seems that I got too many 6's. Typo!!

Wilma Weeks sends a big thanks to all of you who sent a card which really helped cheer her up.  Knowing how much they mean to the receiver she will make it a point to send cards to our TG family with issues.  You guys are great. Thanks again.  Tomorrow I go back to the surgeon and hopefully get out of the brace and start therapy to get the new shoulder working.

Park Model for Rent for the 2020-2021 Season. We would prefer four months of rental. It is a very nice park model. Call Merv 956-246-2876 or Betsy 309-344-1583. Maybe you have a friend looking for something to rent.

It is with sadness that I have to tell you that Ivy Pollock passed away last night. Ron said that she had had a heart attack. A hospital bed was set up at their cabin and she was able to see her last sunset on the lake. Her family was all there and she passed peacefully. Ivy was 99 years young!! Ron said she read all 100 birthday cards that were given to her from the park. She said to thank everyone for the cards. Cards can be sent to Ron Pollock, 168 Dorcas Bay Rd., Tobermory, ON NOH 2RO

To send cards: 800 S H 495, Lot # 689, Alamo, TX 78516

I have put up my flag for Memorial Day in remembrance of Gary Brown. I'm sure many of you have done the same for your family Veteran. May we never forget the sacrifice of the men and women of the United States of America so we can have a free country.
