Connie McGuire was feted for her birthday Wednesday at the Perry Perk coffeehouse when she and her friends donned tiny sombreros for a private party.
Joining Connie on her special day were Pat Munday, Shirley Ehlers, Helen Robinson, Carolyn Guay, Karol Mueller and Lois Hoger.
Speaking privately, Mundy claimed the gathering was in fact a secret initiation of the vestal virgins, a claim the veracity of which is perhaps best left to the researches of the Perry Historical Preservation Commission, of which McGuire is the president.
Connie’s husband, Dr. Harlyn McGuire, was also fitted with the hacienda headwear.
