I am happy to announce that the Hellenic Woman’s Club hosted its Annual Philanthropic Luncheon at the North Hills Country Club on October 18th. The Luncheon was a success, and we will be donating the proceeds to the St. Michael’s Home for the Aged Expansion Program. To view pictures of the event please visit www.hwcofnorthshore.org .

Condolences
Our sincere condolences to the Family of Peggy Milonas who passed away 0ctober 19, 2023.
She Walks in Beauty
She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impaired the nameless grace
Or softly lightens o’er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express,
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.
And on that cheek, and o’er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow;
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace withal below,
A heart whose love is innocent!
– Lord Byron
Happy Thanksgiving!
