Bethel: The Corner

Posted

January 17 – Birthday wishes to Madeline Kask, Matt Lehman, Danielle Herbert, Jennifer Berry, Olga Bell and Marc Lerner. Wishing a belated happy golden anniversary to Barbara and Henri Shawn, married 50 years. That’s a lot of love!

You may not have heard that Irene O’Leary passed away recently. A longtime, great friend of Bethel, a Bethel Lion, a local activist and volunteer, she did so much for the community before leaving south to live near her daughter. Our sympathy to her family. 

Our sympathy is extended to the family and friends of Roz Sharoff and to those of Joe Selvin. Monticello will certainly miss their involvement and popularity. Condolences to the families of Sylvia Reynolds, Gerald Stollman, Shirley Zakarin and Barbara Schwalb.
