The 2016 World Series boasts two teams that

have a combined winning drought of 167

years. The media had many stories of folks

who have seen these games in the past. We

didn’t have to look hard to find our own

Hometown News story, here in Durbin Crossing.

Merritt Hughes, Durbin resident, attended our Senior Men’s Club meeting

proudly wearing his Indians cap. When asked, Indians, really?? His response

was ABSOLULTELY and then he shared the story

of riding 70 miles by train, with his Dad, at just seven

years old. They traveled to watch the Indians in 1948.

So yes, an Indians fan for life.

What a World Series it was. Merritt, sorry the Indians

didn’t pull it off this year - but thanks for sharing your

story. It doesn’t matter who your MLB team is that was

quite a World Series. Congrats to both teams and again, thanks Merritt.

We would like to thank all of

our Veterans for your

service. It is because of your

sacrifice that we enjoy our

freedom.

LAND OF THE FREE—BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE!


WOW, would be the best word to descr ibe our 1st Annual Pumpkin Decorating

Day! All the kids had the same supplies and there wasn’t one pumpkin that

resembled another, SO cute. The kids got to visit the pumpkin patch, pick their

pumpkin and then the creativity SOARED!

We look forward to more Durbin Days ahead!


We would like to take a minute and thank ALL of our residents that attended our

1st Annual Costume Parade. We were thrilled with the turn out and impressed by

your creativity and Halloween spirit! We had just under 100 Durbin kiddos, their

families and more participate. Thanks to the Snoopy gang for making a visit too!

Be thankful for…

The mess to clean up after a party because if means I am surrounded by friends…

The taxes that I pay because it means I am employed…

The clothes that fit a bit snug because it means I have food to eat…

A lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning,

And gutters that need fixing because it means I have a home…

The space I find at the end of the parking lot, because it means I am capable of walking…

The lady behind me in church that sings off-key because it means I can hear…

The piles of laundry because it means I have clothes to wear…

Weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day, I have been productive…

Please take a minute this Holiday season and find thankfulness and joy!!

HAVE A SAFE AND HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
