• Friday-What'sUP January 1 - 12:57 am

Our custom at the end of each month here at Pasty Central is to honor the memories of our loved ones and friends who have gone on before us. What better way than with a sunset depicting the close of each day and significantly the winding down of another year. Take a moment and reflect on the names of those we hold in our memories...

God Bless America and Peace be with you all.

Picture's beautiful!

Happy New Year to everyone out there in Pasty Land.

I'd like to add Ed Rouleau to the list.

In Memory of Claire Bennett a long time supporter of many good things in the Marquette Area. A woman with a big smile and a very warm heart.

He was born in Mohawk, to Reuben and Impi Hill, and although we lived downstate, the memories and stories of the UP were very special. Our last visit was for the Mohawk School Reunion, when he met some old schoolmates from many years ago, and had a great time! He was truly loved, and is truly missed!

In loving memory of my Dad, Peter Pini, who's been gone from us for 11 years, this coming Jan. 5th. You're still a part of us Dad, in our hearts and memories...

I think it would be great at the 1st of each month to announce the births of all children born the previous month. Rick & I would be able to announce our 8th grandchild who is due about the 10th of this month. In fact we're leaving in a few days for Florida so we'll be there for its birth. We'll let you all know when we come back. We'll also be thinking of you in the UP while we're in sunny Florida. Jen & Jack planned their baby's arrival at the right time-in the winter to get us away from all of the snow! haha!!!

My mother in law Lou Kidd, who passed Sept 10. She did so much with what she had, and left a beautiful family to continue.

In memory of Eddie Rouleau, my parents neighbor. Rest in peace. My sympathies to the family.

The Lord has recently blessed me with the second great love of my life, and we will be married on October 1, 2005. Life does go on, but we never forget or stop loving the ones we knew before.

in memorium simon peter and mary francis mahony

Im memory of our dear friend and neighbor, Bob Lunsford...we'll miss you!

My heart goes out to all who has lost a loved one. Dealing with loss can be a hard road - I have traveled that road often in my lifetime. This year I lost a good friend/co-worker Norine. I miss you Dew!

My "In Memory" for this month/year however, is for a little angel I had known for over 7 years. I was never very fond of cats but I was blessed with Cosmo who taught me to soften my heart and to know what unconditional love is truly about.

He was a bit skitish but nothing felt better than each night as I was drifting off to sleep, I would feel the softest paws slip under my cheek for me to rest on and I knew that he felt safe with me. I was entrusted to care for an angel!

Now I imagine him never feeling skitish, but forever bathing in sunlight - the sunlight of the spirit! I miss you Beautiful Boy!

In loving memory of all the Vuolle's who have gone to a better place: Elma, Helen, Bert, Betty, Carl and Avon. They will be truly missed by all of their families.

Happy New Year to all in 2005!!

A very fond remembrance of our little gray kitty, Jiggerdee, who left us on December 10, 2004, just 66 days after our little Sheltie, Seltzer, did the same. She was 18 years, 9 months, and was a special little girl, definitely her mama's kitty. You left us too soon, Jigweed, and never got to know your new puppy brother, Shammah, well enough. We miss you so much,your boodles and purrs, your morning meows, and always "Thunder Paws", and tears still flow for your passing. Rest well, little girl, go find Seltzer, and be nice to each other.

In memory of a sweet neighbor lady, Eileen Wagner, who died on Jan. 1, 1988. A gentlewoman, devoted churchgoer, English teacher. RIP.

In loving memory of my grandparents, Floyd and
Violet Hartman. We miss you very much!

In memory of the Steve DalPra family. Steve, his wife and 3 children were killed in a plane crash flying into Ironwood this past Tuesday. Steve was a physician in Ohio, but both he and his brother Mark (also a physician) came back to Ironwood frequently to see family. God send peace to his family.
