Teri Henderson of Burlington Flats, top photo, directs the Edmeston-Burlington Area Church Choir this afternoon after the decorating of a Catskill Area Hospice Memory Tree on the front lawn of Cooperstown Village Hall, 22 Main. At left, Lisa Berryment of Edmeston, Karen Fish of Burlington Flats and Becky Bennett of Edmeston and the rest of the choir sing a selection of seasonal favorites. (Mrs. Fish said “Heaven’s Child” is her favorite.) Attendees today included Les Grummons of Oneonta, who chairs the Hospice board, Dan Ayres, the new CEO, and Mary Margaret Sohns, who brought the event to Cooperstown a few years ago, and her family. The Edmeston-Burlington church choir is also planning a 35-minute Christmas Cantata at 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. next Sunday, Dec. 17, at the Burlington Flats Baptist Church. (Jim Kevlin/AllOTSEGO.com)
