Mr. & Mrs. Thomas Steffy Observe 65th Anniversary Work bard, count your blessing's and when you are happy, don’t go trying to change things around all the time — this was the advice given yesterday by former Borough Councilman Tom Steffy as he and his wife, Ada Lehn Steffy, quietly observed the sixty-filth anniversary of their marriage.

For the local couple, both, have lived their entire Jives on a single street, with the exception of three months when both became home-sick! Both Tom and Ada were born next door to each other in Brownstone homes at Wal-ricch, across from the Mountain Trail Inn. These homes are located practically on Route 501. After being childhood sweethearts and attending the same onc-room school house, they were married and — believe it or not—merely moved south on Route 501 to Broad Street, Lititz. Here. Mr. Steffy engaged in several business ventures, all of which proved successful. These included his original trade of stone-mason, then the cement business and third, the automobile business. He sold B u i c k s and Chevrolet® for many years, dating from 1927. While in the cement business, he laid most of the streets in Manheim as -well as here in Lititz, built the public pool at New Holland and engaged in countless other major projects. During the late thirties and early forties, he served for a total of 12 years on the Lititz Borough Council. Acting as street superintendent most of this lime, Tom was known on many occasions, to take off his coat, pick up a shovel and give the street gang a hand when they happened to get behind schedule. And all through these years —Mr. and 'Mrs. Steffy lived happily on Broad Street, raising a family of nine children, seven of whom still are living. A few years ago.
