Editorial Assistant
The New Richland City Council held its first meeting of the month Monday evening, February 11. The meeting started at 6:30 p.m. and lasted for one and a half hours. Tony Martens was the only council person not present. The council members approved the agenda with consent items added.
The first item of business was to go over Resolution 13-04, the care center asking permission to change a job title from “Administrative Assistant” to “Business Office Manager.” Resolution 13-05 was the turning back of Highway 13 to Waseca County from the state. Resolution 13-06 was the NR Sportsmen’s Club Fish Fry asking for approval for liquor to be served during the event. The council approved all of these items.

After 65 years, John and Lucille Nechanicky still spark the twinkle in one another’s eyes
LONG AND WINDING ROAD — John and Lucille Nechanicky have enjoyed 65 years of mostly wedded bliss. They raised four children on the 40-acre piece of land near Ellendale and have 10 grandchildren and 14 great grandchildren. (Star Eagle photo by Kathy Paulsen)
They were sweethearts, she and John
In a time long past.
They were young and handsome
When they found love at last.
Each time she saw him coming
Her heart was all aglow.
She felt she couldn't love him more
How little does youth know.
