Valentine Special, Part I
SWEETHEARTS STILL — Merlys and Wayne Wenzel of New Richland enjoy a special bond that officially began February 6, 1960. (Submitted photo)

You may think that Dad’s Good Stuff is full of all the things Wayne has collected or accumulated over the years, and you could be right, but the best thing there isn't for sale. That's because it is his good wife Merlys.
It all started about April of 1959. Merlys was from Glenville and worked at McQuire’s Cafe in New Richland while Wayne was working at Lawrence Wenzel’s filling station. Wayne frequented the cafe for dinner and decided that more than the food was good; the waitress was even better. He said she was shy just like he was, but he kept talking and finally broke her down and they made a connection.

Items sought for silent, live auction
The Parent Teacher Organization of NRHEG is busy planning for the 2nd Annual Community Night Out.
This year the event will be held April 6, 2013, in the Ellendale gymnasium.
Last year the evening began with a social hour, followed by a wonderful three-course meal. The evening concluded with the entertainment of a live auction led by Col. Greg Jensen. Many wonderful items donated from our communities joined the auction list, along with other Minnesota attractions including photo sessions, various sporting events tickets and memorabilia, yard clean-up crews, a pie a month for a year, handmade items, basketball and cheerleader birthday parties, a flowering tree, custom-made mailboxes, and professional hair products, just to name a few.
