March Meeting
What: Into the Arms of Strangers
Documentary & Irish Potato Bake
When: Thursday, March
21, 7:15pm
Where: Marti's House
Sally is doing
the meeting, Marti offered her big TV screen. We will be viewing Into
the Arms of Strangers, the academy award winner for documentary last
year. This is the story of the kindertrain transport that got 10,000 (mostly
Jewish) children out of Austria, Germany, and Czechoslovakia before World
War II. They went to foster homes in Britain, by and large never to see
their parents again. Sally's Aunt Irene and her sister Sil were two of these
kids, their parents were killed a few months later in the concentration camps.
Sil's daughter, Debbie, a producer of the Drew Carey show, produced the
movie after her mother's death and the story came out. Sally will be giving
some background and showing a few snapshots.
Due to newsletter
"deadline" and conflicting info, the Editor made the following decisions
- Marti will be baking the potatoes, Sally will be bringing the drinks,
everyone else will be bringing toppings for the potatoes
(or movie snacks) and confirming with
Sally as to what that will be!

Learn About Life and Enjoy!
I've learned to find joy in each day and share it with
someone. Read it through to the end. Like life, it gets better as
you go!

when we sing Silent Night.- Age 6

either. - Age 7
I've learned that when I wave to people in the country,
they stop what they are doing and wave back. - Age 9
I've learned that that just when I get my room the way
I like it, Mom makes me clean it up again. - Age 12
I've learned that if you want to cheer yourself up, you
should try cheering up someone else. - Age 14

life's great pleasures.-
Age 26
I've learned that wherever I go, the world's worst drivers
have followed me.- Age
29
I've learned that if someone says something unkind about
me, I must live so that no one will believe it. - Age 30
I've learned that there are people who love you dearly
but just don't know how to show it. - Age 42
I've learned that you can make someone's day by simply
sending them a little note.
- Age 44

I've learned that children and grandparents are natural
allies. - Age 47
I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad
it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.-
Age 48
I've learned that singing Amazing Grace can lit my spirits
for hours. -Age 49
I've learned that motel mattresses are better on the
side away from the telephone. - Age 50
I've learned that you can tell a lot about a man by the
way he handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and
tangled Christmas tree lights.- Age 52
I've learned that regardless of your relationship with
your parents, you miss them terribly after they die. - Age 53
I've learned that making a living is not the same thing
as making a life.- Age 58

for your children, work to improve your marriage. - Age 61
I've learned that life sometimes give you a second chance.
- Age 62
I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with
a catcher's mitt on both hands. You need to be able to throw something
back. - Age 64
I've learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude
you, but if you focus on your family, the needs of others, your
work, meeting new people, and doing the very best you can, happiness
will find you.- Age 65
I've learned that whenever I decide something with kindness,
I usually make the right decision. - Age 66
I've learned that everyone can use a prayer. - Age 72
I've learned that it pays to believe in miracles -- and
to tell you the truth, I've seen several. - Age 75
I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have
to be one. -Age 82
I've learned that every day you should reach out and
touch someone. People love that human touch -- holding hands, a

I've learned that I still have a lot to learn. - Age
92
I've learned that you should pass this on to someone
you care about. Sometimes they just need a little something to make
them smile. -Ageless
