April 26

1942: "To 6 o'clock Mass at St. John's. Donald took Robert Fretchel around with him on his paper route. Robert expects to take this route over next Sunday." (Note: Pa had the paper route for only a couple weeks.) [from A. E. Potter's diaries]
1954: "Served as Honorary Pallbearer Robert Stamborski funeral with Matt Mertz, Gene Whittemore, Paul Dietzo, Bill Steckbauer, John Mateyka. Norm Brown is with us for the noon meal. Thres plays cards at Dess Wirtz's today. She gets no prize. Emma Siewert comes home with her and spends the evening at our place playing canasta. I did a little, I should say a little work in the attic."  [from A. E. Potter's diaries]
