Grandpa Ron's Party!!

Grandpa Ron recently reached 30 years with Farm Credit Services. His company threw a party Saturday night in his honor. 70 people gathered to celebrate with him. Eva was the youngest party-goer but one of the most recognized. She happily rode around in Grandpa's arms, meeting and smiling at all of the people. Grandma, Grandpa, and Eva pose with special friend, Eileen White.
Chicken Dance!
Following dinner, some coworkers shared wonderful praise and memorable stories in a short program. The highlight included a visit from a chicken.
Apparently, during a visit to the Gold n' Plump poultry operation, Grandpa Ron visited a building that housed 75,000 day old chics. The men were reminded to talk softly and to "shuffle" their feet rather than lift them. Well, when this advice was forgotten, one chic's life came to an unfortunate end. For the past 15 years, he has been taunted by chickens. It was only fitting that celebrated a great career by doing the chicken dance with this feathered friend.
