Harold Neher's 90th Celebration.

69º with heavy cloud cover at 6:00 am Sunday as I start this, here in La Feria, TX

Our next-door neighbor Harold Neher turned 90 last Tuesday and yesterday, Saturday, many of his family were here to help him celebrate.  In photo - left to right LaRhoda's sister Joyce and husband, Daughter Tammy and husband, Harold, LaRhoda, son Terry and wife.  Son Tim was not able to come.

Quite a large crowd attended



Gentleman front, right may have wondered what all the
hoopla was about---he turned 100 in January
Their son lives in Topeka, KS and daughter lives near Hiawatha, KS.  The four of them drove straight through, arriving 11:30 Friday night and will be starting back later today.  They went to South Padre Island right after the gathering ended at 4:00 pm so the kids could see the beach on the Gulf of Mexico.
In the meantime we had neighbors Bob & Bobi Raab as well as former neighbors Doris & Lyle Winter come to our place for some Pegs & Joker games and a light sandwich lunch after the celebration at the Rec Hall.


Neighbors Jim and Lavin Boozer had not been to the park this year due to health issues.  They arrived only a few hours before Harold's gathering.  They are selling their place only about 3 doors down from us, though plan to possibly return next year in a rental.  Jim said they would be here a couple weeks before returning to Illinois with some of the stuff from their home.






My oldest brother, Roger - in Lincoln, Nebraska, turns 80 years old today.  Will miss his celebration, but will give him a call later.
More later, Lynn
