Two Noras: 1915 and 2023

My  paternal grandmother, Nora, was a great recorder of daily events. I have her daily notes from 1913, 1914, 1915, 1916, 1918, 1919, 192...

Two Noras: October 12, 1914 and October 12, 2021

Nora Bauer: Monday, October 12, 1914

Went up town this afternoon instead of going to the bank, but they were closed on account of Columbus Day. 

Nora Spitznogle: Tuesday, October 12, 2021

Committee meeting for a Heritage Place fundraiser and spoke to group entering the church at Saint Joan of after work. 

Columbus Day was recognized as a federal holiday in until 1934, but many towns and states celebrated it - including Logansport. 

I'm on the committee for the Trivia Night fundraiser for Heritage Place. Kind of fun to have an in person meeting after all of these months of video meetings. 

I spoke to the group of people joining the Catholic Church about the joy I find in my faith. I referenced Dad - his faith was so strong and he was 100% that there is a joyous afterlife. I sure hope he's right - and have a wonderful time.
