We recently acquired the Gail Giles Memorial Pool Plaque and it is now on display at the depot museum. Along with the history. How many of you took lessons at the Gail Giles Pool? Great memories. Doug Case and Cathie (do not know her maiden name) were my swim instructors. They were college students and not married yet...I guess that makes me a little bit old! Who were your swim instructors?

Yesterday, Tuesday 4-14-26 we had gentleman, Jesus Alvarado and his wife stop into the depot museum. He originally came to Adrian from either Texas (or Mexico), he grew up in the Lenawee County area. In 1973 a Mr. Sanchez, from Blissfield did a 8mm movie of his wedding (first wife passed recently). He would love to find a copy of their wedding. Are there any members of the Sanchez family(s) in Blissfield who may have a dusty box of old 8mm movies? Ring any bells, parents who took 8mm movies back in the 70's? We thought this could be a good way to reach out locally! Call Connie Seiser @ 517-403-2412

Last Tuesday Gary Homes presented Addison Hodges and Henry Nash, Civil War, Medal of Honor Recipients. Gary did an amazing, funny, historical presentation. We had a total of 28 people at the presentation. Both Nash and Hodges families came to the presentation and brought the actual Medal of Honor medals. Henry Nash was Janet Gubbe's GGUncle. Her dad's mother was a Nash. Addison Hodges was Denise DeCatur's GGGrandfather. In the photo are Denise, Kevin and grandchildren Ezra and Eliza
