Easter tradition delights
IN THEIR 34th year dressing up as a rabbit and a chick, Val Pistrucci from Leongatha and Nola Sneddon from Hoppers Crossing handed out Easter cheer in the form of chocolate last week.
The pair hands out Easter eggs around Leongatha in memory of their grandmother Eveline Smith who passed away in 1986.
Eveline was a resident at Woorayl Lodge.
Both Val and Nola (nee Hengstberger) were local girls born and raised in the Leongatha area.
This year, they would like to thank the Woorayl Lodge Ladies Auxiliary, Lions Club of Leongatha and the Leongatha Chamber of Commerce and Industry for their great support.
“We get great pleasure in distributing the eggs along with some cheer and fun around Leongatha, especially to the children, young at heart and the sick,” Nola said.
“A smile and a hug cost nothing, but they certainly bring a lot of joy to all.”
Val and Nola were willingly helped this year by Aylah, Tennielle, Hannah, Ellie, Jess and Heidi.
Wonderful effort: back, from left, Nola Sneddon, Tennielle, Val Pistrucci, and front, from left, Ellie, Heidi, Ayla, Jess and Hannah were in Leongatha on March 31, spreading Easter joy.
