February Dinner at Home of Greg and Karen

Doug, Susan, Cathy, Greg, Suzanne, and Willy; Karen as photographer

Well, no group photo and no evidence of food, but looks like there was a lot of fun. “Unfortunately, no group photos. Attendees: Fr Linsky, Cathy Saleeby The Gaskins, Barbara Kelly and Steve and Bobbi Andersen. Notes to win the St Peter’s bird house. Attendees all received a rubber ducky president. Guessing game of Presidents- trivia. Some guests went so far to bring their notes to get the correct answer.” – Bobbi 

At the Cullen home: Jim and Janice, Leslie, Marilyn, Chris, Patrick, Elaine, and Maria.

Front to back, Willy and Suzanne Alpizar, Steve Tuel and Katharine Presty, Beth Griffin, Cathy Saleeby, and Marilyn Montgomery. Father Linsky was there but departed before the camera came out.



Left to right, Edna Willcenski, Mary Gay Rummel, Ted King, David Rummel, Tom Jackman, Julie Jackman, and Al Wilcenski. Edna reports, “We enjoyed the evening very much!

Susan Bon was scheduled to host in February but calendar conflicts made that impossible. She didn’t give up. She just scheduled her hosting in April and ended up with a crowd of six converts to the Catholic faith. Susan on the left, Father Linsky next, Alison and Wes Levitt standing in the back, Leslie and Chris Moellering seated.

And Connie sent a bonus photo, Dave Gatti’s car. I don’t guess we will be seeing that one in the Basilica parking lot anytime soon. 
Left to right are Susan Bon, Katharine Presty, Dave and Connie Parker Gatti, Leigh Anne and Ben Droisen. I think this must be the eighth year for the Gattis to host.
Left to right are Leslie and Chris Moellering, Maria Smoak, Alison and Wes Levitt, and Steve Andersen, hostess Bobbie Culbertson Andersen serving as photographer.

Photos from 2020

 
Hospitality St. Peters 2020 is off and running, and I just received my first group photo. I don’t know if this is before or after the feast but everybody looks happy so they probably just ate.

The photos will help meet the objective of getting to know each other better!

And these from the Donato Dinner.

Dinner with Connie and Dave Gatti. Left to right Chris King, Starr Wolfe, Matt Morrison, Dave Gatti, Ted King, Marilyn Montgomery, and Becky Morrison. Connie Gatti was the photographer.

And here is another shot from the Gattis. Looks like Dave lost some weight.

Lots of Clean Plate Club folks here…unless somebody just forgot to bring the food. Left to right are Diane Babuin (husband Paul Moran probably taking the photo), Fr. Fryml, Mary Gay and David Rummel, Elaine Williams, and Patrick Hennessey.

Happy Face, Empty-Plate Club members, Leslie Moellering, Karen Beidel, Greg Carbone, Joe Simpson, Tammy Simpson, and Beth Franco. Look closely and you will see the reflection of photographer Chris Moellering in the glass window at upper left.

Bobbi Culbertson, Kathleen Fowlkes, Ted and Chris King, Cathy Saleeby, and photographer/chef Steve in the kitchen.

John and Cecelia Donato, Fr. Fryml, Karen Williams, Marilyn Montgomery, Connie Parker and Dave Gatti getting ready to fill their plates at the Williams residence Sunday evening. Darryl taking the photo, of course.

Andrea Roche, Becky Morrison, Mary Gay Rummel, Barb Kogut, Larry Kogut, Jimmy Roche, and Matt Morrison. I’m guessing David Rummel is the photographer. Koguts were hosting this gathering.

Photos from 2019 (Scroll Down for 2018)

May 17, probably last Hospitality Supper of the 2019 season, at the Williams home (making up for missing the February event). Left to right Karen, Diane, Becky, Matt, Debbie, Cathy, Paul (Diane’s husband), and Ted. Darryl taking the picture. We have so many empty plate and desert photos, we made special effort to get a full plate shot. We hope all and more will sign up for 2020, year of perfect vision. Signups will begin about December 1.

From the Andersen home on January 28th. Left to right, Steve Andersen, Kathleen Fowlkes, Joanne Young, Greg Carbone, Karen Beidel, and Father Fryml. Bobbi behind the camera I guess. Kathleen didn’t sign up but looks like she is a very close neighbor of the Andersens so that paid dividends. Thanks for sending in the photo Bobbi.

And below is a photo from three years ago: Jason and Celia Galens, Barb and Larry Kogut, and Karen Williams at the home of Pat and Mary Callahan. (Darryl taking the picture)
