From Ray and Marlys LaMorie

Finally had time to sit down and catch up-to-date with Gambles Alumni.
Do miss Arlene's
Newsletter.  Great website.

Things are about the same with us.  Should have retired years ago but
still working 40 hours
a week at Target.  Have been there 12 years now.  Almost as long as I was
at Gambles.

Ray and I celebrated our 35th anniversary in April.

Thanks for taking time to keep us all informed.  Sure wish I could have
been there for
get together in June but was visiting family in California.

JUNE CASUAL EVENT

From Arlene Weinzierl:

The first "casual" get-together of Gamble Friends on June 14, 2013 at the outdoor patio of Champps in Ridgedale, was a real hit. A sit-down, order from the menu lunch. There were 25 attendees: Greta (Korst) & Harold Anderson; Lee Buckholz; Jim Ehlert; Bonnie Enfield; Roger & Ellen Hanson; Carol Holmquist; Terry Johnson; Warren Johnson; Jane Kibler; Paul Kunnick; DeWayne & Dorothy Lukkasson; Marie Marino; Connie Robertson; Joanie Saleck; Mary Schupanitz; Dean van der Werf; Dick & Marietta Walker; Lars & Jean Wallin; Marilyn (Sifferle) Walter and Arlene Weinzierl.

Everyone agreed that Dick Walker and DeWayne Lukkasson did a terrific job of finding the ideal place for this first "casual" event. Will there be another? There is talk of doing it at Christmas time. Same place (heated of course). You will hear more as plans progress.

Thanks you Arlene, I hope that I didn't make too many errors in transcription. Roger
