every house has a story

According to the 1930 Census, the home at 1322 S. Montreal Ave. was owned by 45-year-old Alfred W. Sanders, a builder, and his wife, 38-year-old Ruth.

thanks for the memories

Thanks to the generosity of our hosts, we enjoyed another memorable HHNA Progressive Dinner. About 35 folks enjoyed appetizers at the Forresters, a few took a refreshing dip in the pool next door as everyone savored Ted Thomas’ amazing smoked ribs and salmon, and then polished off the event with a delightful dessert and White Russians [...]

farewell, old soldier

We’re sad to report the death of Charles Cundiff, 79, a 43-year resident of Hampton Hills. He met his wife of 56 years when they were both 19. “We walked these sidewalks for nearly a half-century,” Teddy said. “He loved his home.” Charles had Alzheimer’s disease, but even at the end of his life he told [...]

yard of the month

Congratulations to Kevin and Norma Frentrup, whose beautiful home received the Yard of the Month for May. They couldn’t believe that their yard had been selected, especially when they consider it a work in progress. “We’ve got bare patches in the lawn,” Kevin protested. We reminded him that the criteria include curb appeal, creativity, and an [...]

yard of the month

Congratulations to Stacey Meyer, whose beautiful home in the 1400 block of Hollywood Avenue received the Yard of the Month for April. It’s hard to maintain trees, shrubs and grass on your own, but Stacey has managed to do so. Her home’s landscape looks relaxed and natural but not wild and carefree. If you haven’t made [...]
