The Post recently traveled to Tucson, Arizona with Darlene (Towns) Wirtz, of Ionia, to visit her sister Jean (Towns) Peterson. Jean and Darlene are graduates of Cedar Springs High School, and both were Red Flannel Queens. Darlene, pictured on the left, was RF Queen in 1949, and Jean, on the right, was the 1948 RF Queen.

Thank you, Darlene and Jean, for including us in your visit!

Walt and Lora Bouck, of Cedar Springs, and Tucson, Arizona, had a visit over spring break from their daughter, Brenda Robart and grandsons Shane, Tyler and Trevor, also of Cedar Springs. “We enjoyed beautiful weather, warm temperatures, and blue skies,” wrote Lora.

While there the family went to the Sonoma Desert, rode the ski lift on Mt. Lemmon (where they took a photo with The Post), visited Colossal Caves, went horseback riding, and took a stagecoach ride in Tombstone.

Lora said the ski resort didn’t open this year for lack of snow. “There was only a one-foot of base on the mountain, and they need at least three feet of base to open,” explained Lora. “The last time it was closed was back in 1984.”

Thanks so much to the Boucks and Robarts for taking us with you!
