Saturday, May 24, 2014. Spring Luncheon - See You in September? We closed out another garden club year with a pot luck luncheon at the Bailey Ranch.

The Garden Club of Switzerland: IN MEMORY OF CAROLYN C KELLIHAN
http://switzerlandgc.blogspot.com/2015/06/in-memory-of-carolyn-c-kellihan.html
Monday, June 22, 2015. IN MEMORY OF CAROLYN C KELLIHAN. Our long-time and most dear garden club member, Carolyn Kellihan, passed away peacefully on June 18, 2015. Carolyn's serene presence was always at our meetings, and she was the very first member to renew for 2016. Although she was quiet, you always knew that she was attentive to everything, and always gracious. We all will miss Carolyn but take comfort in the fact that she is now free from all cares and pain.
