She got a better deal at St. Luke's Hospital in 1947

Patty Collins dropped a note to the Trailboss to comment on the trivia we've been throwing around here. Karl Tegland has been debating the Trailboss as to whether Religious Instruction was held on Wednesday mornings or afternoons. The Trailboss consulted fellow confirmand Karen Schjei Benson for a ruling on this but hasn't heard back yet. Read Patty's note carefully below and you'll see she doesn't shed much light on the controversy either. -- Trailboss

Hi Stan,
Nothing like meaningless trivia to get the 65ers going!
Gary Johnson was an elementary school teacher married to Carol Schiefer (Home Ec. teacher) at one time.
I think the answer to Clifford's question is the St. Luke's Hospital. I was born there. It cost my parents $23 room and board for mother and baby for a full five days. I also have the receipt.
I remember religious instruction at the Episcopal Church every Wednesday, last hour of the day. Polly Mason was our instructor. If I remember right, Dave Aldous was always in trouble. The Episcopal church was quite small and we were a very diverse group. I have fond memories of everyone. Norma Longfellow was our elementary instructor, and I believe we attended every Wednesday morning. Yes, it was freezing, and, yes, I can't remember learning a thing, at least not in Junior High School. I guess we were having too much fun to care. Does anyone remember ice skating at Noonan's Park? Louie Ley's Dad was the warming house attendant.
