BELDING — Thank you to all the wonderful donors who support the Alvah N. Belding Library by giving memorials at the time of a family member or friends passing or as a remembrance of them at a special holiday or anniversary.
A Christmas remembrance donation was given for Gene & Marge McQueen by their granddaughter, Erin McQueen-Young, Erin’s husband Alan & their children Graham & Clare.
Adult non-fiction books in their memory are “Summers at the Lake: Upper Michigan Moments & Memories,” “Memories of a Mackinac Island Native,” “A Cast Away in Montana,” “Silk: a World History,” “Sandwiches of History: the Cook Book,” “So God made a Grandma: Caring, Faithful, Creative, Devoted, Wise, Generous, Resilient—Just Like You,” “The Lions Finally Roar: the Ford Family, the Detroit Lions, & the Road to Redemption in the NFL.”
An adult large print fiction book in memory of Marge & Gene is “Meet me on the Porch” by Erin Stevenson.
