Marie & Ray Adair at First Presbyterian Church, Munising, Michigan.

In the July-August 1986 FPC GOODNEWS!Letter, Kim Swanberg interviewed our "MEMBER OF THE MONTH", Marie Adair:

Marie is the longest standing member in the church today. She joined the church in 1920 and was married to Ray Adair by Rev. Broughall in 1930. All of her children were baptized in the Presbyterian Church also. Marie was a Sunday School teacher for many years and also sang in the choir.

She came to Munising when she was in the fourth grade and graduated from Mather High School in 1925. Marie attended Marquette Normal (now Northern Michigan University) for two years. She taught school here for three years.

Marie has belonged to the Women's Guild and Associations for many years, is an Elder, and was on the Board of Deacons. She and her husband, Ray, reside at 913 W. Munising Avenue.

Thank you, Marie, for sharing part of your life with us.
