Congratulations!

Nedra Moudy Krider celebrated 98th birthday 

When Nedra Moudy Krider was born on July 25, 1910, the Boy Scouts of America had just formed in Chicago, Tel Aviv was one month old, Chicago celebrated the opening of its new ball stadium, Comiskey Park, and the U.S. Congress established Glacier National Park in Montana.

On Friday, July 25, Nedra celebrated her 98th birthday.

Nedra, a lifelong resident of Churubusco, now resides in Kingston Care Center in Fort Wayne.

Decked out in her favorite color - pink - with lots of pink jewelry and accessories, Nedra is seen in the hallways every day, greeting other residents and each staff member with a smile and a “hello” or “how are you?”

Always an attractive woman - impeccably dressed and decked out in bright colors and her trademark earrings and heels - not much has changed, even though she is nearing 100 years of age.

Sarah Marie (Frecker) and Scott Alan Archer wed 

Sarah Marie (Frecker) and Scott Alan Archer exchanged vows in a nuptial ceremony April 26, 2008, at the History Center in Fort Wayne.

The bride works for the Boys Scouts, serving Whitley and Kosckiusko Counties. She is a member of the Columbia City Rotary and Whitley County Drug Free Indiana.

The groom is employed by East Allen County Schools.

The couple met through an online dating service – but should have met much earlier, it seems.

“We were both in Marching Band (Northrup and Harding respectively),” Sarah said, “and marched in at least 15-20 of the same events as well as competed in concert band at the same location over three years.”

Additionally, the groom went to school with the bride’s cousin and had likely been at the same events and locations on numerous occasions while growing up – but never met each other.

“Just never made that connection,” Sarah adds.

Further adding to the joining of these families, Scott will be adopting Sarah’s 7-year-old daughter, Makayla.
