OYEN LODGE: “December is the most wonderful time of the year.”
By Dianne Spath
Hello everyone. Good thing the cold snap didn’t last long. The Oyen Lodge would like to extend its condolences to Juicy McKay’s family and friends on her passing. Juicy had lived in the Lodge before she moved to Medicine Hat.
Thank you goes out to Rack Petroleum, Cheryl Ball, and Dave Cordick for donating a beautiful wooden crib board. The residents will enjoy it; it’s greatly appreciated. Thank you also to the maintenance men for putting up the outdoor Christmas décor—it looks wonderful—and to Gloria Jorgenson for all her help at the Christmas party.

Monday started with exercises, followed by a one-on-one Scrabble game. In the afternoon, there was bingo.
Tuesday morning started with exercises, followed by the regular bus run downtown for shopping. Father Rodell led Catholic church service at 10:30. The rest of the week, there were no activities due to an influenza outbreak at the Lodge.
Happy Birthday to Norman Peterson on December 15th.
“December: A month of lights, snow, coziness, and feasts; a time to make amends and tie up loose ends, finish what you started, and make your wishes come true.”
Have a great week, everyone.
