Annex Agenda TBD share their experiences of a century. She is a young 95 as of May 28th this year. Both are sharp in their memories and seem to be doing well as they have enjoyed 70 years of marriage. While they are both South High graduates, they didn't meet until Mark returned from his two and a half years of service in the army where he had served with General Patton as his stenographer. General Patton wrote a letter of commendation to Mark: "Now that we are about to initiate the operations, I take this opportunity to express to you personally my appreciation of your important and intelligent contribution to the formulation and completion of the plan we are about to execute. I am well aware of the physical and mental demands made upon you and of the cheerfulness and tenacity with which you stuck to your task until completed. I cannot better express my appreciation and congratulations for such commendable attention to duty on your part than to say that I enter the operation with the utmost confidence of success." - Signed G.S. Patton, Jr., Lieutenant General, U.S. Army; commanding dated 8 July 1943 Mark had firsthand knowledge of the personal habits of this amazing general. He described him as a decent and good man. Yes, he was temperamental, emotional and required strict discipline of his troops but he was fair and understanding, not profane like in the movies. Mark was assigned to Washington DC where he first met General Patton. It was at the Munitions building, where the Pentagon is now located. The general passed by him in a hurry, spinning Mark around in the hallway. Mark said to the MP on duty, Who's that joker? He was such an imposing figure. The MP said "Watch your tongue soldier! That’s blood and guts Patton!" So, Mark experienced first hand as his stenographer and as part of the Advance Command Post the venerable George Patton. The Heyrends have lived in Millcreek since they moved to their present home here in 1956. He worked for the Union Pacific Railroad for 52 years before retiring in June of 1992.

Halloween is so much fun because it's not like other nights of the year. Have fun and stay safe by following these tips: See and Be Seen After dark, kids aren't usually swarming the neighborhood. But on Halloween night, they are. That's why kids need to watch out for cars and other traffic. Be sure that your mask or costume doesn't cover your eyes or make it tough for you to see where you're going. You might think about wearing makeup instead of a mask. If you do wear a mask, make sure the eye holes are big enough that you can see. Kids also need to be seen on Halloween, so it's a good idea to wear or carry something that glows in the dark. You might choose a glowing necklace, a glow-in-the-dark treat bag, a flashlight or reflective tape. Don't Trip! You want your costume to look cool, but there's nothing cool about tripping and stumbling all Halloween night. Make your costume trip-proof by: making sure it's not too long wearing shoes that fit not using swords, canes, and other props that can get in your way Don't Go It Alone Subscribe Past Issues Translate ---PAGE BREAK--- 10/30/2018 Millcreek Centenarian 7/12 It's best to trick-or-treat with family members or friends. It's also a good idea to have a grownup with you. If you have one, a cellphone can be another handy item to have with you. That way, you can check in with a parent or call for help, if needed. Don't look down at the phone if you're crossing a street or driveway. And if you're wondering about whether to go to a certain house, check if the porch light is on. If not, that's usually a sign that no one is home or they don't want any trick-or-treaters. Let's Talk Treats Before you start eating the treats in your bag, you'll want to get a good look at them. Get rid of stuff you shouldn't eat. For instance, you don't want to eat anything that's loose or not in a wrapper. Anything unwrapped, including fresh fruit, should be thrown away. Without a wrapper, it's hard to tell if food is clean and safe to eat. Once you've looked over your treats, you'll probably wonder just how much you can eat. Well, it's best not to overdo it. If you don't eat too much on Halloween, you'll have leftovers to enjoy in the days and weeks to come. In other words, you can make Halloween a little sweeter by making it last a little longer! Keep these tips in mind and we'll all enjoy a safe and happy Halloween!

Halloween can be a lot of fun for humans but pets may not appreciate the costumes and candy. Protect your pets from Halloween dangers with these tips! 1. Keep candy out of reach: All forms of chocolate and the artificial sweetener can be poisonous to dogs & cats. Call your emergency vet if Subscribe Past Issues Translate ---PAGE BREAK--- 10/30/2018 Millcreek Centenarian 9/12 your pet has eaten either. 2. Keep pets confined and away from the door: Dogs may be likely to dart out the door, or become anxious with trick-or-treaters in costumes and yelling for candy. Put them in a crate or a backroom and keep everyone safe. 3. Close the blinds or drapes, disconnect doorbells: If your dog reacts every time someone walks by or rings the doorbell close the drapes and disconnect the doorbell. 4. Keep outdoor pets inside before and after Halloween: Keep dogs and cats indoors to prevent them from being injured, stolen, or poisoned as part of a Halloween prank. 5. Don’t approach dogs while in costume: Even if you know the dog, a strange costume or mask can frighten them. They may not recognize you in costume. If a dog escapes a house or yard and runs up to you, tell your child to stand like a tree, and wait for the owner to grab the dog. 6. Test out pet costumes before: Make sure the costume isn’t causing them distress, or giving them an allergic reaction. It shouldn’t restrict their movement, ability to breath, bark or meow. 7. Leave them at home: It may be best with all the distractions to leave your pet at home while trick-or-treating. Take them for a walk earlier in the day before the ghosts and goblins come out for the night to spook them. Is your pet microchipped?
