Christmas Party
News
We had an enjoyable visit to the Dallas Holocaust Museum last month. We also had scheduled an event for November 23rd, but our presentation has not worked out. But if you're still available then and would like to just socialize, Ruth is organizing several of us to just go out to dinner at Lavendou (www.lavendou.com). If you're interested, give her a call to let her know you are coming at 214-734-6844.
Our next ESU event will be our annual Christmas Party which will be Judge Jim Kerr's house. We will send out more details right after Thanksgiving, but be sure to put this on your calendar. It always is a fun and joyous event!
