anie's seemingly endless escapades. Together with her employer, Vin-
nie; co-workers, Lulu, Connie and Ranger; long time beau, Joe Morelli;
her family, including Grandma Mazur who takes center stage particularly
during neighborhood wakes; and the loathsome characters she encoun-

at the Library on Tuesday, January 30 at 6pm. This class will be an
introduction on how to start a family history. Clint will share information
on how to use local resources and how to get information on relatives
that are not from around this area. Handouts will be passed out at
the class. Clint has been into genealogy for 6 years. Please call the
Library to sign up for the class or to get more information.
