Join us for An Evening with Christina Baker Kline

Tuesday, March 28 at 7pm, Carroll Arts Center

About A Piece of the World

As she did in her beloved smash bestseller Orphan Train, Christina Baker Kline interweaves fact and fiction in a powerful novel that illuminates a little-known part of America’s history. Bringing into focus the flesh-and-blood woman behind the portrait Christina's World by Andrew Wyeth, she vividly imagines the life of a woman with a complicated relationship to her family and her past, and a special bond with one of our greatest modern artists.

About Christina Baker Kline

Christina Baker Kline is the author of the novel A Piece of the World (2017), about the relationship between the artist Andrew Wyeth and the subject of his best-known painting, Christina’s World. Kline has written five other novels — Orphan Train, The Way Life Should Be, Sweet Water, Bird in Hand, and Desire Lines — and written or edited five works of nonfiction. Her 2013 novel Orphan Train spent more than two years on the New York Times bestseller list, including five weeks at # 1, and was published in 40 countries. More than 100 communities and colleges have chosen it as a “One Book, One Read” selection. Her adaptation of Orphan Train for young readers is Orphan Train Girl (2017).

Special thanks to HarperCollins Publishers.

Thanks also to the members of the Artword Bound Book Club, CCAC.

At Mary Ruth Bollinger's funeral - officiated by Deacon Charles Barnhart

At Mary Ruth Bollinger's funeral -  officiated by Deacon Charles Barnhart. 21Mar2017

Folks have filled Fletcher's Funeral Home to pay their last respects to Mary Ruth Myers Bollinger.

Joy Bollinger is sharing thoughts about her Mom.

She just explained that Mary Ruth and George were married for 65 years. 

1 Corinthians 13:4-8New International Version (NIV)

Mary Ruth Bollinger, 86, of Westminster, peacefully passed after a recent stroke on Thursday, March 16, 2017.  Born in Alesia, MD, she was the daughter of the late Jacob Myers and Ida Michael Myers.


Growing up she was an active member of the Lutheran League Fellowship.  She graduated from Manchester High School in 1947.  She graduated from the University of Maryland and earned her Medical Secretary Certification and worked at the University of Maryland Medical Center, Sinai Hospital, Baltimore County Hospital and Carroll Hospital Center.  She worked in Medical Records, the lab and as a phlebotomist.  She also worked as a licensed realtor assisting her husband in development. 

She was a member of Crosswinds Church and had a long affiliation with Deer Park United Methodist Church, both in Westminster.

She is survived by her husband of 65 years; George Abdiel Bollinger, daughter Joy (Judy) Bollinger and husband R. Harvey Mann, Jr., of Westminster, grandsons Adam Forrester of Tampa, FL and Chase Forrester living in Westminster and Tampa, FL; brothers Luther and Richard Myers and sister Doris Smith, all of Maryland, and sister Janet Stillman of Buffalo, NY.  Also survived by numerous nieces and nephews.

She was predeceased by a son Gary George Bollinger who died in 1982 and brother Frank Myers who died in 2016.

The family will receive friends on Sunday, March 19, 2017 from 2 to 4 and 6 to 8 p.m. at the Fletcher Funeral & Cremation Services, 254 E. Main St., Westminster.

Funeral services will be held Tuesday, March 21, 2017 at 11 a.m. at the funeral home, with Deacon Charles E. Barnhart, Jr. and Pastor John Dean Co-officiating.  Interment will follow in Deer Park Cemetery.

Memorial contributions may be made in her name to a church of your choice and sympathy cards may be mailed to P.O. Box 1682, Westminster, MD 21158.


--------

1 Corinthians 13:4-8New International Version (NIV)

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

Sunday church service at Grace Lutheran Church in Westminster - the first Sunday in Lent. www.gracelc.org


Sunday church service at Grace Lutheran Church in Westminster - the first Sunday in Lent.  www.gracelc.org A welcome and necessary brief break in the never-ending war against hunger, poverty, the intellectually stunted and the artistry disinclined. 4March2017

Pastor Kevin Clementson spoke to us about the expectations of having a life in Christ. In a message that highlights "This is not what I signed-up for," he shared that sometimes in our walk of faith, we are tempted and things do not go as planned. The hope for a perfect life often leads to disappointment.

This reinforces one of my foundation beliefs that our success in life greatly depends on how we respond positively to setbacks and  dissapointment.
