Father Tom Zelker Turns 60

By

Father Tom Zelker turned 60 on Wednesday, February 6. There is a banner hanging on the side of the Armory wishing him a happy birthday. On Sunday, February 3, at the end of Mass everyone sang Happy Birthday, and the kids brought him balloons and a basket full of cards. They also had a cake. He was surprised.

Sunday, February 3 was Groundhog Day. The Immaculate Conception Church in Hoosick Falls did not have a groundhog, but they did have a frog. The frog saw his shadow determining six more weeks of winter. (Bea Peterson photo)
