- Easy and rewarding - let the professionals clean up your home.
- Grab up to 51% off exterior house washing from WashMyHouse.
- Maintain the value of your investment by choosing from four house washing options.
- Combining soft jet pressure washing techniques, special house wash chemicals and a premier service - WashMyHouse are ready to get to work.
- House washing is recommended once a year as it extends the life of your house's paint coat.
Some things are easy to clean. The dishes aren't too taxing. There are a few convenient options for the car too, if you're not all that keen on doing it yourself. Wax in your ears – well yes. However, your home presents a bit more of a challenge. The inside is within the realms of possibility. The outside, however, can quite literally be out of reach – no matter how eager you might be.
Embrace the opportunity to not clean the outside of your house - yourself. Having professionals take the task on is not only sensible but a far less arduous option. And here are the options from WashMyHouse.
- Pay $95 for a small house or unit - single level with two bedrooms and one lounge - excludes garage.
- Pay $125 for medium house - single level with standard three bedrooms and one lounge - excludes garage
- Pay $150 for a large house - single level with four bedrooms and one lounge - excludes garage
- Pay $175 for an extra large house - single level with five bedrooms and one lounge - excludes garage
Maintain the outside of your home not only to keep it looking smart but to protect your valuable investment. The soft jet pressure-washing technique, combined with special house wash chemicals, act to break the bond between grime, dirt and the surface. The result is a much-improved and welcomed return to a clean looking home.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

According to the 1970 animated classic, "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town," the Burgermeister was the evil mayor of the small village where Kris Kringle first passed out toys. After the Burgermeister tripped on a toy, he banned all of them. An outlaw, Kringle was forced to sneak down chimneys to deliver the goodies.
In a 1974 follow-up to "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town," the nasty Heat and Snow Miser brothers tried to ruin Christmas in "The Year Without Santa Claus." But their mother, Mother Nature, stepped in and saved the day.
How could a Christmas list be complete without Martians? Yes, Martians. In the 1964 cult classic, "Santa Claus Conquers The Martians," green bad guys kidnap Santa and take him back to the Red Planet.
No Christmas villain list would be complete without Old Man Potter, the mean Bedford Falls businessman who made George Bailey's life so miserable in "It's A Wonderful Life." Played by Lionel Barrymore (at left), Potter is the prototypical Scrooge. But we'll get to the famous Dickens miser soon enough.
He caused trouble for Frosty the Snowman and for Tim Allen in "Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause." Jack Frost (as played here by Martin Short) has also been the star of at least two slasher films. But he's also been around for quite awhile, appearing in Anglo-Saxon and Norse folklore.
It was the Christmas present to destroy all other Christmas presents. In Stephen Spielberg's 1984 classic, "Gremlins," one super fuzzy pet turns into an army of evil, green trouble-makers bent on ruining the holidays for everyone.
In the 1988 action classic, "Die Hard," bad guy Hans Gruber ruins an office Christmas party. Making his movie debut as Hans was Alan Rickman, now famous for his role as Severus Snape in the "Harry Potter" franchise.
A little boy left "Home Alone" for the holidays is taken on by two inept burglars, Marv and Harry (played by Daniel Stern and Joe Pesci). But they're no match for Macaulay Culkin's booby traps.
Finally, in Dr. Seuss' classic tale, "How The Grinch Stole Christmas," the villain finds some redemption in the end. Jim Carrey recently played the green holiday terror. For a 1966 cartoon adaption, horror actor Boris Karloff provided the Grinch's voice.
But probably the most famous holiday villain to find redemption is Charles Dickens' Ebenezer Scrooge. First published in 1843, "A Christmas Carol" has spawned dozens of TV adaptations and at least 20 films.

A northeast Florida couple spent two months looking for their cat, only to discover that the animal had been trapped in a neighbor's garage the whole time.
It's not clear how Jerry and Elizabeth Moore's cat, Tommy, got stuck in the garage in late November. The neighbor's visiting daughter discovered Tommy on Jan. 20 when she investigated a yowling noise she heard coming from the garage in St. Augustine Beach.
Elizabeth Moore told The St. Augustine Record that veterinarians said Tommy was "severely depressed" after his ordeal and the best medicine was care at home.
Tommy also received stitches and a blood transfusion. The cat lost about six pounds during its disappearance. The Moores said eating and gaining weight has improved Tommy's mood.

It was back in 2002 when Matt Damon helped create one of the more thrilling franchises in movie history -- the Jason Bourne series. The story about a highly-trained operative who can't remember his past inspired two highly successful sequels, the last being "The Bourne Ultimatum" in 2007. A fourth movie was planned, but after director Paul Greengrass (who had done the second and third films) decided to pass, so too did Matt Damon.
Screenwriter Tony Gilroy was given the task of picking up the pieces and moving the franchise forward. As co-writer of the first three films, he came up with a screenplay (along with brother Dan) and was given the chance to direct. (This is Gilroy's third film after doing the excellent "Michael Clayton" with George Clooney and the far-less memorable "Duplicity" with Julia Roberts.) He also needed a new leading man and the choice was two-time Oscar nominee Jeremy Renner from "The Hurt Locker" and "The Avengers."
The result is an interesting mix of the old and the new. Renner plays "Aaron Cross," another operative who is part of a genetic program to help develop better warriors and spies. We know he's tough -- when we first see him, he's diving underwater in a cold Alaska lake. His character is adapt at crossing the frozen wilderness and, unlike Jason Bourne, wants to talk a lot more to the people he runs into.
The Department of Defense program that Renner's character is a part of is loosely connected with the "Black Briar" and "Treadstone" endeavors featured in the previous films, and that's where the connection is made to Jason Bourne. Gilroy has cleverly added continuation of scenes from the last film that not only include characters we already know (ones played by David Strathairn, Scott Glenn, Albert Finney and others) but also introduces the new cast, including Edward Norton as the ex-military man whose job is to ruthlessly erase any sign (or person) connected to the program. Norton plays his part extremely well, toning down some of the more villainous mannerisms he's demonstrated in films like "The Italian Job" and "The Score."
Unlike the first three movies, the female lead has much more to do this time around. Oscar winner Rachel Weisz ("The Constant Gardner") plays a scientist for a big lab that is providing the drugs that are making Renner be all that he can be. The two have one scene together early in the film, but for an extended period after that, her character is solo, dealing with people at the lab and government officials. When she and Renner finally link up during a violent confrontation at her home, the movie finally moves into full throttle.
Up until that point, "The Bourne Legacy" moves along very slowly and there's a lot of talking. A lot. In fact, a worrisome amount. It's hardly the frantic pace that audiences saw in the previous films. Things start to look up with a big action scene in Alaska (really Alberta, Canada) and then after the two leads team up, we're in more familiar territory.
Like the other "Bourne" movies, the film does feature some exotic locations, including the Philippines. The action sequences are first rate. They include a rooftop chase scene that's exciting but very similar to the Tangier sequence in "The Bourne Ultimatum." There's also an extended motorcycle chase scene that, while impressive, seems overly long.
Renner is effective as the lead, differentiating himself from Damon by showing more humanity and by just having more lines to say. Weisz's character is a strong co-star who shows her character's shock at what's happening to her.
"The Bourne Legacy" definitely sets up a possibly sequel, with enough threads left hanging for audiences to want more. There's even an open door for Matt Damon's character to return. We'll have to see what the deal makers in Hollywood can do. But in the meantime, this latest edition to the "Bourne" series proves to be a solid if not spectacular continuation of the series.

Robert DeLong didn't start out loving electronic dance music
Summerfest is best utilized for catching acts on the way up, not just seeing established headliners. Among the most promising up-and-comers at this year's Big Gig is electronic dance artist Robert DeLong.
With his melodic take on EDM, the 27-year-old has been cited by Billboard and MTV as an artist to watch closely in 2013. The music video for the lead single "Global Concepts," which travels from chilled keys and light percussive taps to synth jitters and rhythmic drum snaps, has been seen nearly a million times on YouTube. »Read Full Article(1)

On Nov. 26, 1960, Sonny married Yvonne Cecile Poirier in St. Sylvester Catholic Church in Graniteville. They made their home in Holyoke, Mass., and later Graniteville before moving to their Maple Street home in South Barre in 1993. She died on Aug. 2, 2005.
Sonny was first employed in Barre-area granite sheds for several years before going to work as a machinist at Vermont Castings in Randolph for nearly 15 years. Later, he worked as a long-distance truck driver in Massachusetts and Texas and as a welder for Bombardier in Websterville until his retirement.
He was a member of St. Sylvester Catholic Church in Graniteville. He enjoyed woodworking and carpentry work for himself or while helping others, hunting and driving a racecar at Thunder Road in Barre Town.
Survivors include his two daughters, Penny Keifer and her husband Jon of Arcanum, Ohio, and Wendy Farnham and her husband Michael of Barre Town; four grandchildren, Christopher Keifer, James Keifer, Cori Farnham and Craig Farnham; four brothers, Raymond Deuso and his partner Carol Spencer of Arizona, Kenneth Deuso and his wife Delores of Graniteville, Ronald Deuso and his wife Ginny of Florida, and Timothy Deuso and his partner Bert Garcia of Plattsburgh, N.Y.; three sisters, Marylou Florek of Williamstown, Donna Spencer and her husband Theodore of Orange, and Cheryl Comstock and her husband Allen of Williamstown; many nieces, nephews and cousins.
Besides his wife, Yvonne Deuso, he was predeceased by a son, Reginald Charles Deuso, and three sisters, Barbara McQueen, Victoria Spencer and Terry Lee Deuso.
Entombment will take place in the Hooker and Whitcomb Vault in Barre to await his graveside service in the St. Sylvester Cemetery in Websterville in the spring.
Family and friends may call at the Hooker and Whitcomb Funeral Home, 7 Academy St., Barre, on Tuesday, Jan. 22, 2013, from 6 to 8 p.m.

Event Preview Fact Sheet
Austin Dillon
No. 33 American Ethanol Chevrolet
Event/Date: Michigan 400 – June 17, 2012
Venue: Michigan International Speedway – Brooklyn, Mich.
Race Notes and Quotes:
This Week's American Ethanol Chevrolet at Michigan International Speedway … Austin Dillon will pilot Chassis No. 396 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stable. This Chevrolet is a new addition to the RCR fleet and will be put through its first paces this weekend.
Dillon at Michigan International Speedway … Dillon has four starts at MIS, spread among the NASCAR Nationwide Series (finished 19th in 2009), NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (finished fifth in 2010 and 22nd in 2011) and ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards (finished second in 2009). The 2011 Camping World Truck Series Driver Champion earned the pole award at the two-mile track in the 2010 edition of the Camping World Truck Series race.
WIN with American Ethanol … American Ethanol will activate a strategic integrated branding campaign, including an extensive sweepstakes aimed to engage NASCAR fans, from June 8 to August 31, 2012. The "American Ethanol Sweepstakes" will educate consumers about E15, fuel blended with 15 percent American Ethanol, similar to the Sunoco Green E15 used in every race car in NASCAR Sprint Cup, Nationwide, and Camping World Truck Series races. The American Ethanol Sweepstakes will give away over 500 prizes valued at $150,000, including three Chevy Silverados, race tickets and autographed merchandise. Fans can enter for a chance to win online at NASCAR.COM/aesweeps. The sweepstakes will be promoted on the TNT Summer Series race coverage, online via promotional units, on American Ethanol's Facebook page and onsite at various events across the country.
On Top the Box … Long-time RCR employee and veteran crew chief Gil Martin will serve as crew chief of the No. 33 American Ethanol Chevrolet team this weekend. Martin, who currently serves as RCR's Director of Team Operations overseeing the organization's Nationwide Series programs, is among an elite group of crew chiefs who have earned wins in NASCAR's Sprint Cup, Nationwide and Camping World Truck Series. Martin guided Kevin Harvick to four wins, nine top-five and 19 top-10 finishes en route to a third-place showing in the point standings during the 2011 Sprint Cup Series season. He also worked in the Sprint Cup Series with Casey Mears, Clint Bowyer and Robby Gordon at RCR.
Double Duty … In addition to Sunday's Sprint Cup Series race, Dillon is scheduled to compete in RCR's No. 3 AdvoCare Chevrolet in the Nationwide Series Alliance Truck Parts 250 at MIS on Saturday afternoon. The race is scheduled to be broadcast live on ABC beginning at 3:30 p.m. ET.
Meet Dillon … Dillon is scheduled to make an appearance at the Team Chevrolet Stage located near the track's main Gate 24 ticket office in the New Holland Fan Plaza beginning at 5:30 p.m. ET on Friday.
Trackside, Live … On Friday evening, Dillon is scheduled to appear on Trackside Live. The program airs on SPEED beginning at 7 p.m. ET.
Last Time Around … In his Sprint Cup Series debut at Kansas Speedway last October, Dillon drove the No.98 Curb-Agajanian/Reagan Centennial/Camping World/Curb Records Chevrolet to a 26th-place finish driving for owner Mike Curb, in partnership with Richard Childress Racing.
What does it mean to you to run the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race for American Ethanol?
"It means a lot to have this opportunity. I look forward to representing American Ethanol, Growth Energy and the National Corn Growers Association in the Sprint Cup Series. They've become great partners for RCR in the Nationwide Series, and I commend their commitment to clean air. Michigan International Speedway has always been one of my favorite tracks, and I think it will be even more exciting to race there in the Cup Series race given the recent repave the track has undergone."
How do you feel about running on Father's Day weekend?
"My dad pushes me a lot. We always joke around and say we are going to take the radio from him during races because he is so vocal. I know he's trying to help me, but we like to tease him about it. It's cool to be able to run a Sprint Cup Series race on Father's Day weekend because I am close to both my father and my grandfather. Everything we do together as a family is either hunting and fishing-related or racing-related, so even though it's Father's Day weekend, it's not that much different from what we do every day. I'm proud of my family, and the organization my grandfather has built. He's taught me about working hard. He built everything he has from the ground up and it's an honor that he has given me the chance to race."

When an animal is found abused or neglected what happens to them while the abuse allegations are investigated?
Some go into witness protection programs, where they are given a chance to heal and forge a brand new identity, according to Indianapolis TV station WXIN.
The program in Indianapolis is a joint effort between Animal Care and Control and the animal rescue group "Every Dog Counts."
Animal Care and Control calls Tara Harris with "Every Dog Counts" in cases of abuse or neglect. She keeps the dogs at a secure location so they can be rehabilitated while the investigation proceeds. Dogs even get a whole new identity, just like humans, and their care and food is all paid for, WXIN reported.
"A sick or injured dog can rapidly rack up $1,000, $2,000 or $3,000 in veterinary bills," said Harris, who relies heavily on donations.
When donations run thin, Harris uses her own money to keep the program going.
"To have it called the witness protection program I suppose is fitting, but it is something that is very helpful for us and for the animals," said Dan Shackle, chief administrator for Animal Care and Control.
It's a program that is more or less an underground effort.
It's not a government undertaking, but Harris said it's just as necessary and rewarding.
"It is as therapeutic for me as it is for them," she told WXIN.

A Delaware man is in hot water after police said he fled a traffic stop with a cop in his car.
Police in southern New Jersey stopped Randy Eno Mase, 19, on early Saturday for a speeding violation, according to the Burlington County Times.
When officers began speaking with him, police said Mase tried to drive off.
But not before one of the officers had opened the driver's side door and jumped in.
The officer was able to stop the vehicle a short time later.
Mase faces numerous charges, including aggravated assault, eluding and drug charges, The Associated Press reported.
He also faces several motor vehicle citations.

Zombies are the discerning horror fan's monster of choice. Be they the slow, shambling, easy-to-behead traditional type or the super-fast face chompers of some more modern films, there's something about the singularity of purpose that makes a zombie do that zombie thing that makes them the ultimate scare.
In this article, we're going to dish up the five greatest zombie movies of all time. For added difficulty, no George A. Romero films are included, since he basically invented the modern zombie-film genre and is thus in a class by himself.
So read on! You might even find some movies you didn't know about. In fact, we'll just bet you've never heard of this first one ...
No. 5: "Dead Snow" (2009)
That's right, kids, zombie Nazis! If you think Jake Blues hated Illinois Nazis, you'll quickly see he had nothing on the cast of Norwegian unknowns in "Dead Snow" who find their backcountry skiing weekend interrupted by Hitler's undead minions.
"Dead Snow" is the only zombie flick to win an award at the Sundance Film Festival, and despite the no-name cast and occasionally cheesy dialogue, it delivers the goods. The zombies are implacable, and exhibit a level of cunning and strategy not often seen among the undead.
And there's plenty of leftover World War II weaponry laying about, leading to some truly epic zombie killfests with tons of gore polluting pristine Scandinavian snowscapes.
"Dead Snow" also wins, hands down, the title of Best Zombie Flick Tagline Ever: "Ein, Zvei, DIE!"
A good tagline is one thing, but great quotes are another, and our next selection is full of them ...
No. 4: "Army of Darkness" (1992)
The world might never have known the wonder that is Bruce Campbell if not for Sam Raimi's trilogy of "Evil Dead" movies, the greatest of which is "Army of Darkness." As shotgun-toting S-Mart clerk Ash, Campbell spits out quotable one-liners almost as often as he dispatches zombies, skeletons, miniature versions of himself and all manner of other bizarre creatures.
Discussion of the plot is pointless, as it is but a loose framework designed to set up fight scenes so over-the-top that they almost beggar reason.
Take for example the climactic tussle, which begins with Ash driving his beat-up Oldsmobile into the enemy army fitted out with everything up to and including a spinning skeleton-whacker.
Ash is the ultimate zombie movie hero, shifting from shotgun-fueled bravado and bloodthirst to screaming, fleeing, pants-wetting terror in the space of seconds. Basically, he's just like us.
Like your zombies with a dose of motherly love? Then try our next selection ...
No. 3: "World War Z" (2013)
Brad Pitt in a zombie flick? Believe it or not, it works. "World War Z" both scares and delights in this smart zombie thriller.
Pitt plays Gerry Lane, a United Nations employee who travels the world looking for a cure to end a zombie pandemic. As zombies take over the world, Lane races against the clock to save his family and all of humanity.
Our next selection takes us back to a decade we might not mind seeing get eaten ...
No. 2: "The Return of the Living Dead" (1985)
Let's face it, folks, no decade deserved to have its flesh snacked on more richly than the '80s.

Boy calls 911 to avoid bedtime
10-year-old tells dispatchers he's calling to report his mother
Published On: Feb 21 2013 09:48:30 AM CST Updated On: Feb 22 2013 10:31:26 AM CST
A 10-year-old boy in Massachusetts went to extremes to avoid going to bed.
The boy dialed 911 just after 8 p.m. and told the dispatcher he was calling to report his mother, who was trying to get him to go to bed, The Enterprise reported.
According to police records, an officer did go to the boy's home in Brockton.
But he came to explain when it was appropriate to call 911, and when it wasn't, according to The Enterprise.
No charges were filed.

Just like humans, dogs need vaccines too. It's important to know what types of vaccines your dog needs and how often he needs them.
The type of vaccines needed depends on each dog – including age, medical history, environment and travel habits. According to The American Society of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA), most vets recommend dogs get the core vaccines.
The core vaccines are considered to be vital to all dogs. These include parvovirus, distemper, canine hepatitis and rabies.
Other vaccines, including the non-core vaccines – are given to dogs based on their exposure and risk, the ASPCA says. Some of the non-core vaccines include Bordetella bronchiseptica, Borrelia burgdorferi and Leptospira bacteria.
How often your dog gets vaccinated varies from dog to dog. Typically your dog's veterinarian will determine which vaccine schedule is best for your dog. Some vaccines may be given annually but others may be given only once every three years, or even longer, according to the ASPCA.

A judge in Wisconsin ordered a father of nine who's behind on his child support payments to not have anymore children until he can prove he can support them.
Corey Curtis, 44, fathered the nine children with six different women, The Associated Press reported.
He owes nearly $100,000 in back child support and interest.
At Curtis' sentencing, Judge Tim Boyle said he wished he had the authority to order sterilization for the man.
"Common sense dictates you shouldn't have kids you can't afford," Boyle was quoted by the Racine Journal-Times as saying.
It's not clear what would happen to Curtis if he fathered another child, but he says he plans to abide by the order.

In perhaps the very definition of tacky, a man in Pennsylvania is accused of stealing his ex-girlfriend's engagement ring and giving it to his wife.
Donald Albritton, 35, pocketed the ring while his ex made Thanksgiving dinner, then gave it to his current wife in hopes of patching up their relationship, The Associated Press reported.
He was charged with theft and was released from jail last week.
Albritton also faces charges in an unrelated incident last month in which police say he punched a man in the face and stole his cellphone, the Scranton Times-Tribune reported.

Vt may fall short on broadband goal
We have promised to have high-speed Internet access to every last mile by the end of 2013, declared Gov. Peter Shumlin at a December news conference.
Today, state officials are still promising that by the end of the year, all Vermonters will have access to broadband Internet.
As broadband has become more widely available, the state has continued to focus on those places with no high-speed Internet in order to reach its goal.
The most isolated customers are the biggest challenge, and not everyone is on the same deadline as the state.
But achieving that target depends on building the network that will carry the broadband signal.
The state has relied on its own grants, federal grants and loans, and private capital from phone and cable companies to build out the network.
In many cases, the state targets its money to companies that will extend broadband to those isolated addresses that have no high-speed Internet now and might never have it without grant money.
The grants are aimed at getting the job done by the end of this year. Thats the states timeline. But its not everyones timeline.
In March, the Vermont Telecommunications Authority terminated two broadband grants awarded to Springfield-based VTel when the parties couldnt agree on terms of a contract, including a completion date.
Some of the grant money was intended to provide broadband by years end to 365 unserved addresses.
When the grants were terminated, VTel officials announced they would serve those locations anyway, even without state money.
But in a conference call with the telecommunications authority board Friday, the company made it clear it wont do so before the end of the year.
When pressed by the telecommunications authority board to agree to a completion date, VTels Diane Guite said the company was not going to make any commitment without the grant money.
We have no reason to contractually commit to do anything unless theres funding attached. Doing a written commitment where its just us promising you something isnt something that a business would agree to, Guite told board members.
Guite said service would likely not be provided to all of the 365 addresses until sometime next year.
This leaves the state in the position of missing its deadline, or finding another way to reach those unserved customers.
The state hasnt yet decided what to do.
All along, officials have said there might be a handful of people without broadband by the end of the year, but a higher number would represent a failure.
With less than eight months left, Kiersten Bourgeois, who heads the states broadband effort, says shes still confident the goal will be met.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER Rep. Peter Welch, D-Vt.

Marion F. Carri
March 21, 1926-Dec. 3, 2012
BOSCAWEN, N.H. Marion F. Carri, 86, of Boscawen, died peacefully Dec. 3, 2012, following a brief period of declining health.
Marion was born in Port Chester, N.Y., March 21, 1926, the daughter of Peter B. and Marion (Bartlett) Fraser. She was raised in Barre, Vt., and graduated from Spaulding High School, class of 44. Marion worked at National Life Insurance Co. until shortly after her marriage to Charles F. Ter Bush in 1950. Marion and Charles moved to Columbus, Ohio, and then to Chicago, where they lived and raised their family. They moved to Mount Carroll, Ill., shortly before Charles passed away in 1976. At her 35th high school reunion, Marion became reacquainted with Hugo Carri, also a graduate of Spaulding High and proprietor of Commercial Refrigeration in Concord, N.H. They were married in 1979 and moved to the Concord area, eventually settling down in Boscawen.
Marion was a loving wife and mother who instilled a good moral compass in her childrens lives. She and her husband, Hugo, enjoyed traveling and spent time tracing their family lines with trips to Scotland, Italy and Switzerland. Marion deeply enjoyed being with her family and seeing what each day would bring her.
Marion is survived by her husband, Hugo Carri; son, Charles F. Ter Bush Jr. (Ruth), of Chicago; daughter, Barbara Russell (Neil), of Sachse, Texas; stepchildren, Bruce Carri (Judy), of Concord, N.H., Susan Sutherland (Bill), of Tennessee, Ronald Carri, of Tennessee, Kevin Carri, of Tennessee, and Ann Lesmerises, of Penacook, N.H.; sister Eleanor Fraser; brother Bill Fraser (Beverly); and numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews. Marion was predeceased by her husband Charles F. Ter Bush Sr.; her sister Evelyn Gingras; and her brother Arthur Fraser.
Marion will be laid to rest at a private service in Oak Hill Cemetery in Mount Carroll, Ill.
