Ocean Point Column
September 25,2014
By Maryellen Bertrand
Sadly, funeral services were held on Sunday September 21 for
Judy Dawson who died on September 18th. Our heartfelt condolences to
her children; Jonathan, Sarah, and Liz; as well as their spouses Kate, John and
Paul and Judy’s grandchildren Jane, Al, Owen, Isabel, Henry and Nara and her
sister Janice and brothers Bryon and Guy and their spouses. Judy was such a
positive presence at Ocean Point throughout the years, always involved and
attending every activity. For many years she volunteered her time and energy to
keep the Casino well supplied for all of the activities. She will be missed.
Congratulations to Marilyn and Jack Heise who recently
purchased the Cape house on Ocean Point Road just beyond the entrance to the
condos. They will be doing some remodeling before their move from Illinois and
expect to be in by next spring. They are very excited to be joining the winter
population at the Point and then move over to the cottage to enjoy the summer residents
and activities.
Currently they are entertaining friends from Illinois, Pam
and Steve Spicer and Jan and Dave Gerber both of whom are first time visitors
to Ocean Point. Their plan is to do all things “Maine” including a trip to
Monhegan.
The Point continues to see a fair amount of its residents
vacationing. It was great to see Pete and Barb Klein here for a few days
enjoying the weather. Kathy and Jack Ford are here and Richard and Eileen
Horton have returned. Betsy Pike O”keefe and her daughter Melissa were here for
the weekend
This past week I had the opportunity to attend a performance
at the Carousel Theatre to see their production of Hometown USA a 40’s musical
review; what a great performance by these extremely talented individuals. The
cast members are music theatre graduates and each has previously performed in
several theatre productions. If you have not had the opportunity to attend one
of the performances there is still time as their last performance is September
27th. You may also want to include it on your” to do” list for next summer.
I would like to remind everyone to join the OP email list to
stay connected throughout the off season and to read the blog which features
posts from other Ocean Pointers as well as pictures.
Have a great week.
