The Bend News

The Bend store is closed due to the virus.

Rain did fall this past week which is always good news. Of course the grass will need to be mowed, but who cares because it is so nice to have nice green grass.

Easter will be next Sunday. Some of the churches will not be having their usual service, but will provide some sort of service be it be by radio, printed material or TV. The big Easter Egg hunt will not be held this year, but families can still decorate eggs and the Easter bunny can still hide them at your home for the kids to hunt.

Still have people on the prayer list. Jack Danials who has cancer, Jerry Reavis who also has lung cancer, Pete Henniger who has cancer and Phil B McCoury. Phil B is the only one that does not have cancer.

No one is getting out much except to buy groceries, gasoline and other necessary items. There is no visitors as everyone is trying to stay home and keep from getting the virus or spreading it. The kids are staying home from school and doing their homework by computer, but the grade school have to take their work in to the school.

The mail is still being delivered to our mail boxes and of course the trash pickup is still operating.

More and more people are beginning to wear masks and more places are requiring them to be worn. If you sew, you may be able to make your own and save some money as they say the masks are hard to come by and are expensive when you do find them. There are patterns on the internet on how to sew them and what type of material is best to use.

Happy birthday greetings go out to Madison Mayben and Cherie Henniger who will be celebrating a birthday April 9 and to Ethan Eckhoff, Jacob Freeland and to Madison Danials who will be celebrating a birthday April 10, to Carol Gibson, Monty Lively and Gene Danials who will be celebrating a birthday April 11, to Teagyn Burash and George Mayben will be celebrating a birthday April 12 on Easter, and to Phil B McCoury will be celebrating a birthday April 14.

Congratulations go out to Richard and Gail Reinherit who will be celebrating their anniversary April 14.
