The Kentones sang together for more than 22 years and we have been retired for 12 years. We still enjoy getting together to visit, reminisce, laugh and cry over the old videos and even to sing a little! Kenton Legion Ladies Auxiliary made a reunion evening possible on Friday, May 1. We sang our old favourite song, Thank You Dear Lord for Music, and we would add, 鈥淭hank you Dear Lord for the food and the hands that prepared it.鈥�
Jack Houston is a recipient of the France Legion of Honour Medal from the French Embassy. A presentation to him for this honour will take place Sunday, June 5 at 7 p.m.; the celebration will conclude by 9 p.m.
On Tuesday, May 5 seniors shared a time of fellowship during lunch hour; the food was provided by Woodworth Senior Services co-ordinator Colleen Elliott. The meal was at Kenton Memorial Hall and donations were accepted at the door. She had a questionnaire for us to fill out and then gave us the answers.
Games of cribbage were played following lunch. All of us appreciate all that Colleen has done for the seniors in the community. We look forward to returning to the games afternoon in the fall.
