Cake for a Cookie. Surprise!



There was a surprise birthday celebration today for retired Accounting Supervisor Martha "Cookie" Lipford.  

Beacon Journal alumni gathered at the Arlington Street Golden Corral.

Says Carol Eubank: “There was lots of reminiscing.”

Chimes in Cheryl Scott Sheinen, wife of former BJ staffer Neil Sheinin: “It was really nice. Lots of gab.”

Nice and gab is what BJ alumni do well when they reunite with former co-workers.


As for Sheinin, he was available because he didn’t have to throw out the first pitch for an Akron Aeros game, as he did last year.  J

A cake for a Cookie seems appropriate, too. 
Cookie was at the same Arlington Street Golden Corral last year when the gang had a get-together with BJ Accounting Department retiree Linda McElroy. Linda's husband, Business Department retiree Harold McElroy, passed away in 2011. The McElroys and retired printer Dick Latshaw were neighbors on Pauleys Island, South Carolina.

Hi John, just wanted to mention that not only am I the wife of former BJer Neil Sheinin but I am also retired from the finance dept. after 45 years.
