Retirees lunch in memory of Levenson, Pell
The July 9 luncheon of the Akron Beacon Journal Retirees wil be in memory of Sanford Levenson and Robert Pell who died this week.
Both retirees attended the luncheons regularly.
The luncheons are not limited to retirees. Those still working at the Beacon Journal and those back in town for a visit are encouraged to attend.
Attendance at the luncheons has now dwindled to about a dozen each month. The luncheons previously attracted 30 or more each month. Luncheon provide an opportunity to catch up on the news about what others are doing and to reminisce..
Beacon Journal types now keep in touch online via email or the Retirees blog. In the past, the luncheons were the only way to keep in touch.
Luncheons are at 1 p.m. the second Wednesay of each month at Papa Joe’s in the valley, 1561 Akron-Peninsula Road at the intersection of Portage Trail.
It would be great to see you there Wednesday, July 9.
