2010 - Grand Electa Bev Baller's Reception - March 27

(Unofficial count) Over 130 members and friends gathered in Bellingham for the reception of Grand Electa Bev Baller. The Hearts in Harmony Deputies and their escorts turned out in force to help cook and serve the luncheon ahead of time and to support Sister Bev.

Three Past Grand Electa's attended - PGM Ann Gates, PGM Bev Riley and Gr. Sec. Emer. Norma Jean Roberts.

Having Sister Bev Riley there was very special for our current Grand Electa Bev Baller because PGM Bev Riley was Worthy Grand Matron when Grand Electa Bev Baller's mother was Grand Electa 25 years ago. Grand Electa Bev Baller wore the forever dress from that year in honor of her mother.

Bev's family was very proud of her and she was also very proud of them.

After the reception, deliciousl refreshments were served in the dining room.
