Jim, the food service director for the OFH is a real gem. He retired from a successful career in commercial food service. Hanging around home too much his wife said "Go find a job!" So the OFH is the beneficiary of his talent. About four times a year he puts on a gourmet dinner. It's a themed multi-course meal with many extras.
So, what day is this? It's National Donut Day! It's also an illustration of Jim's creativity. Tables were set up by the continental breakast and inmates were invited to select a free donut. There was a wide variety but I quickly selected an apple fritter. It want will with coffee as I read the morning paper. This is one of the ways that Jim and the OFH spice up life for the inmates!
So what day is this? It's June 6, 2025 and 61 years to the day since Joanne and I were married. The service was at First Lutheran, Sioux Falls, SD. Pastor Marcus Gravdal Presided and Joanne's father, Pastor Oscar C. Hanson did the homily. The Augustana College Choir sang. Joanne's maid of honor was her sister Mary, and attendants were Jenine Peterson nee Jordahl and Maxine Kellany nee Amundson. My brother David was my best man, and the only survivor of the attendants. Attending me was my brother, Richard, and David Halvorson.
Two very different days each special in their own way.
Takk for alt,

Yes, we were young then.
