Celebrating Steve Catsos

Posted on by

Dear Friends and neighbors,
Halcott recently lost Steve Catsos, married to JoAnn Kelly Catsos. They had been building their house off of Elk Creek Road together for a number of years. 

JoAnn writes: We have been building our homestead on Kelly family land for over 10 years and moved to Halcott in December 2022. We had always planned on an Open House / House Warming for when “the house was done”. The house is not completely done, but I feel it is time for our neighbors to stop by. Please join me for a Celebration of Steve’s Life / Housewarming on Saturday, October 28 at our home on 29 Kellys Maple Ridge from 1-3 pm. Light refreshments will be served.

Peg DiBenedetto’s Silver Dollar Girls

Posted on by

Peg DiBenedetto, born and raised in Halcott, daughter of Ruth and Ward Reynolds, has a story to tell. Her most recent book Silver Dollar Girls is a delightful piece of fiction based on the World War II experiences of her mom. She will speak about her book at the Skene Memorial Library in Fleischmanns, on Saturday, September 30 at 1pm.  Attached is a flyer with more details. Like her mother, Peg has painted life with her own extraordinary feats. Just to sit and listen to her is a treat that will set you smiling for days. Enjoy!
