(Mr. Samac had included a report for the ARB & BOA in the last Council packet.)

Cemetery -Mrs. Mills reported that Edna Malle was buried in plot #80 on November 7th. It was a unique situation because her plot was not a big enough burial plot so the mortuary had her cremated and she is now entombed in her family plot.
