1932

I, Marvin Chandler, had a stroke March 7—five days before my 97th birthdaythat paralyzed my left side and weakened my other muscles. Now I'm in the recovery stage, which is no walk in the park, and am making the best of things. I hope to continue with the column if you send news. (Editor's Note: Marv passed away May 18; look for an obituary in the next issue.)

Mrs. Mody Modarelli reports, "My final address is here in Bretton Gardens, Tampa. My son and his family moved to Florida so they brought me along. It has been quite confusing for me at this age, although I'm becoming fairly settled. I can't say I don't enjoy this lovely warm weather and the bright blue skies. I have a few problems with my eyes, etc., but try to hang in there."

From our youngster, Don Allen: "I have recently given up driving, but between Ginny and Ferris Hills Transport manage to get about conveniently. The Foreign Policy Associations Great Decisions program is underway here—it's the sixth year I have managed it, five years previously for Seneca Falls Rotary. Daughter Barbara, from Dover, Massachusetts, was here over the weekend, and we had lunch at the new Wine & Culinary Center of Canandaigua, New York."

Dave Potter, son of John Lee Potter, Monterey County supervisor, recently became a commissioner of the Local Agency Formation Commission, the state agency that must resolve the contentious local issue of whether to incorporate avillage of Carmel Valley. We have recently lost Cal Fisher, reducing our numbers to 21.
