Submitted by Pat Stefanchuk The November luncheon for former and current Flin Flonners was held in Winnipeg on Nov. 2 at the Viscount Gort Hotel. Seventy-three guests attended and enjoyed animated conversation as well as a tasty chicken dinner complete with vegetables, perogies, salads, fruit and assorted desserts, including the hotel's signature bread pudding. Three guests attended for the first time. They were Denise Lawson, Glenn Waterman from Lundar and Nick Berzenji. Blair Harvey and J.J. O'Donnell both visited us from Vancouver while Wendy and David Paton came into the city from Kenora. We were pleased to welcome Miriam Fenster, who was with us for the second time, and Glenn Nicholls, who has returned. We sincerely hope to see all of these folks on a regular basis. Others who attended the luncheon were: Jim, Sharon and Jason Jankovich; Eunice Petrychko; Dennis Goodwin; Doug Evans; Pat Stefanchuk; Keith Brown; David Highfield; Art Gauthier; Joe Marks; Brenda and Steve Solilo; Eve-Anne Kristjanson; Lil Puritch; Jack and Jo-Ann Turner; Doris Allard; Robert Bulow; Davilyn Eyolfson; Eldeen Blair; Jim Pico; Alice Morrison; Maureen McCaig; Russell Martin; Vada and Ed Gardewine; June Bohemier; Don Budlong; Jim and Leone Hillier; Doreen R.
