St. Anthony Park resident Ted Homdrom has published a book recounting his family’s 35 years as American Lutheran missionaries in South Africa. “Mission Memories II in Apartheid South Africa” is both personal and political, reflecting as it does on the difficulties missionaries faced in working within, and occa-sionally challenging, apartheid laws. The book is available at Micawber’s and the Luther Seminary Bookstore.

Falcon Heights resident Roger Aiken, 75, placed first in his age division in the Twin Cities Marathon. Aiken, whose time was 5:48:20, has run every TC Marathon except one. He runs 3–4 times a week all year long.

John Grobel, of Falcon Heights, wrote a chapter in a recently published book from the University of Minnesota Press. “Our Neck of the Woods: Exploring Minnesota’s Wild Places” is drawn from back issues of Minnesota Conservation Volunteer magazine and includes contributions from Sigurd Olson, Paul Gruchow, Bill Holm, Peter Leschak and others. Grobel’s chapter is called “I Flew with Eagles.”
