Area Tri Delta alumnae celebrate the season

Local residents Nancy and Bob Wagner in December hosted members of the San Gabriel-Crescenta Valley Alumnae Chapter of Delta Delta Delta and their guests at the group’s annual Christmas party.

Attendees always enjoy seeing the extensive holiday scenes using the hundreds of pieces the Wagners have collected over the years. Nancy says she starts setting up in early October to get ready for the event.

Joining the Wagners were La Cañada residents Charlotte Holley, Janice and Duane Paul, Mary Strauss, and Phyllis and Mike Trueblood. Others attending were Patty and Bill Bird, Gloria Cartozian, Joan Humphries, George Humphries and Betty Sheridan from Pasadena; Carol Thueson from Altadena; Ann and Jack Conley and Gwen and Tom Johnson, from Glendale; Sara Martinez from Monrovia; Christina, Mark and 2-year-old Helene Houser from Glendora; and Amy and Glenn Putnam from Sierra Madre.

Each member brought their favorite hors d’oeuvre to share, and also donations that will be given to Ronald McDonald House Pasadena this month as part of the Southern California area wide “Delta Love Day.”
