In Loving Memory of Genevieve J. Kruger 1934-2011God looked around His garden and found an empty place.He then looked down upon the earth and saw your tired face.He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest.God’s garden must be beautiful, he always takes the best.He knew that you were suffering, He knew you were in pain. He knew that you would never get well on earth again.He knew the road was getting rough and hills were hard to climb,So he closed your weary eyelids and whispered, “Peace Be Thine.” It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone,For part of us went with you, the day God called you home. – UnknownSadly Missed and Always Remembered by Your Husband William, Ron, Jane, Kelly, Matt, Shelby, Mandi, Deb, Ben, Rob, Shari, Paige, Logan, Kathy & Leo

everyone for the kindness shown through your support with

A heartfelt thank you to Plaza Morena, Ruth & Bob Mickelsen, and The Elbow Room for all the delicious food they donated. Everyone sure enjoyed it! The food was enjoyed so much we ran out of enchiladas. Plaza Morena then went back to the restaurant to make more and delivered it to us. You can’t beat friends like that!I would also like to thank the Eagles Auxiliary for the planning, cooking, serving, and clean-up. The women worked so hard to make this benefit a sucess and they did. Also the Eagles Club #2258 for letting us use the club facilities. “People Helping People” sure describes this club and the people who are members.I would also like to thank everyone who attend-ed the benefit. When faced wih cancer, one feels alone, but your generous donations of time, food, and support changed a bad situation into knowing I was not alone. It is so hard for me to express how much this meant to me.Once again to all of you, thank you for every-thing you have done for me. I appreciate it so much. I will never forget your kindness and generosity.
Sincerely, Kathy Phillips

Puzzle 1 (Medium, difficulty rating 0.52)
HERE’S SUDOKU HOW IT WORKS:Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

Puzzle 1 (Medium, difficulty rating 0.52)
HERE’S SUDOKU HOW IT WORKS:Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

In Loving Memory of Genevieve J. Kruger 1934-2011God looked around His garden and found an empty place.He then looked down upon the earth and saw your tired face.He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest.God’s garden must be beautiful, he always takes the best.He knew that you were suffering, He knew you were in pain. He knew that you would never get well on earth again.He knew the road was getting rough and hills were hard to climb,So he closed your weary eyelids and whispered, “Peace Be Thine.” It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone,For part of us went with you, the day God called you home. – UnknownSadly Missed and Always Remembered by Your Husband William, Ron, Jane, Kelly, Matt, Shelby, Mandi, Deb, Ben, Rob, Shari, Paige, Logan, Kathy & Leo

A heartfelt thank you to Plaza Morena, Ruth & Bob Mickelsen, and The Elbow Room for all the delicious food they donated. Everyone sure enjoyed it! The food was enjoyed so much we ran out of enchiladas. Plaza Morena then went back to the restaurant to make more and delivered it to us. You can’t beat friends like that!I would also like to thank the Eagles Auxiliary for the planning, cooking, serving, and clean-up. The women worked so hard to make this benefit a sucess and they did. Also the Eagles Club #2258 for letting us use the club facilities. “People Helping People” sure describes this club and the people who are members.I would also like to thank everyone who attend-ed the benefit. When faced wih cancer, one feels alone, but your generous donations of time, food, and support changed a bad situation into knowing I was not alone. It is so hard for me to express how much this meant to me.Once again to all of you, thank you for every-thing you have done for me. I appreciate it so much. I will never forget your kindness and generosity.
Sincerely, Kathy Phillips
