Fergus Falls MN Update: Lyn Johnson

(Editor's Note - Lyn's original letter is a "Johnson Family Christmas Crossword Puzzle" -- so I had to do some revamping to make it work for this format.) 

2 Across:  Kansas City --  To celebrate Brian's birthday in July, we traveled here to take in a Royal's game, zoo, Hallmark, and taste world famous BBQ.
7 Across:  Revenue Tax Specialist -- Hannah's job title at the MN Dept of Rev since June.  She lives in Lowertown (St. Paul) and is the proud owner of Sammie, a 2 yr old "Heinz 57" dog she adopted from Homeward Bound Dog Rescue.
8 Across:  Mayo Clinic -- the largest integrated medical center in the world and Leah's new employer!  She is an occupational therapist in the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation department.

9 Across:  Retirement -- When you combine the number of years Ly has taught with her age, you will discover she has reached the Rule of 90 indicating eligibility for this!  While the idea is enticing, Lyn can't imagine not working with young children with special needs.
10 Across:  Mayflower -- The name of the company that moved all of Leah's belongings from Willmar to Rochester in October.

1 Down:  Park Gardens -- In September, the decision was made to place Lyn's Mom here.  It's a secure living environment geared to provide supportive services to those with memory loss.  It's just down the street and around the corner so we can visit daily.
3 Down:  Fantasy Football-- The name of the interactive virtual competition that Brian is the proud owner of the traveling trophy for the Maroon and Gold league!  This season, however, he is competing in the "Toilet Bowl" playoffs (Goodbye trophy!), has a team in the "Beer League" at the bank and manages Hannah's team.
4 Down:  Isaiah -- Old Testament book that includes this quote:  "His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."
5 Down:  Graduation -- Name of the ceremony Hannah participated in on May 1st after completing a major in Accounting and minors in Business Administration, Management Information Systems, and Theology at the University of Mary in Bismarck.
6 Down:  Luke -- New Testament book that includes this quote:  "For unto you is born this day, in the city of David, a Savior which is Christ the King."
