What are we up to on Newark-Granville Road this 1st day of November

 This is also the way I simply chronicle important moments and share news.

1. Tonight- DePauw v Denison in Field Hockey- NCAC Tournament 1st round! DePauw finished 3rd in the Conference, Denison 2nd- so DU hosts- are grateful for this alignment. Who do we cheer for in our life on Newark-Granville Road? A: both/and of course! We can't lose right?? We want Sally and the team to keep playing and play well tonight. We are bleed Red as we cheer GBR (go big red).

Just love that Depauw put Sally on the game day social media post:

2. It is All Saints Day, so of note, we're planning to attend The Memorial Service for Ken and Marcy Loats this Saturday, November 4 at 1 p.m. at Granville First Presbyterian Church.

Ken was my June O advisor at Denison in 1986.  Fast forward we moved to Granville in 2000 to raise our family and The First Presbyterian Church of Granville became part of our home.  The Loats welcomed us.  They are both deeply missed and were indeed treasured members.  I miss reading Marcy's reflections from worship and engaging, she cared deeply about so many things. They both mattered and made a difference in our lives on Newark-Granville Road


Denison Mourns the Loss of Don Bonar as we reflect on important lives of impact, Don's must be included here.  We were so sorry to miss the service honoring his life and for his family and friends. Don was a beloved faculty of Joe's and Don remembered him!  When we bought our home in Granville, he told me that he was going to look back at Joe's grades to see how they related to his success. It was always a treat to engage with Don in town or on campus. He too is missed, he too leaves a legacy.

3. Cheers to all of this, raise a glass to the 10th Anniversary of Granville Brewing! Tonight they celebrate:
