What a great weekend I had; I went down to Queens to a cousin’s party. There were over 45 of us, and there were a lot missing. This was my mother’s mother’s side of the family. My family tree could be a forest.

With my mother being so sick she wanted everyone together to have a party, so she and my two aunts were there. The three of them are the last of a generation; my sister and two cousins are the start of my generations; and there were three generations there after me. We are a very lucky family to have five generations. Being with family is always a fun time.

The Cochecton Ambulance Corps would like to thank everyone who came out to its chili and soup fundraiser. Everyone had a great time and the chili was delicious. A special thank you to Burger King in Monticello and to Peck’s Market in Narrowsburg for their donation. With the people coming out and supporting this event, the Cochecton Volunteer Ambulance will be able to buy much needed supplies.

A belated happy birthday to “The Judge,” Bob Meyer, who spent the weekend with his kids and grandkids.
