Newsy notes in November
Belated birthday wishes to Uncle Leo and Heidi who share November 24th as their birth date. Hope all had a Happy Thanksgiving. Our family welcomed into our home two men from China who do business with John at VSI. Alex, who speaks good English, and Mr. Wang, who only speaks Cantonese. Alex is proud to announce they he speaks both Cantonese and Mandarin. They were quite entertained when Ben pulled up a site on the Internet that teaches Chinese phrases. When Mike, Sarah and family arrived she impressed them with her Chinese phrases that she had learned while in China several years ago. Alex was surprised when we told him that we have some Chinese Scheubers in the family. Now that Sarah is working in the same department as Jamie, maybe she can learn more Chinese.
On November 18th John and I attended the United Samaritans Fundraiser Dinner at Sky Trek Aviation. Can't seem to get away from SCHEUBER connections. We found out that LORI & JEFF know the Zeppa's our neighbors who were there. (Ben plays with the Zeppa boys) They in turn realized that we were related to the DUARTES. They know ALEX & JOHN . Then when we sit down at the COLEMAN table, a young couple sits next to us. He introduced himself to us as BRENT BURNSIDE, owner of Burnside Body Shop. When he found out we were Scheubers, he asked if we were related to MIKE SCHEUBER who went to Downey High. He infomed us that he and MIKE are longtime buddies & he was in MIKE and ASHLEE'S wedding. So enjoyed visiting with them and reminiscing about MIKE & ASHLEES'S wedding.
