Still “imbibing and pursuing leisurely interests” after all these years. That would be the RFH Ladies of the Round Table. You’ve seen them before in a ’70s Retro Pic of the Day and they’ve been at it again “all these years” later — at a gathering in Delray Beach, FL.
Former longtime Fair Havenite Marie Ottesen passed away on Jan. 25 after a long battle with Alzheimer’s disease.
Marie was born and raised in Brooklyn, where she met her husband, Lloyd. They married in 1959. Soon after that, they moved to the “country,” also known as New Jersey, where they raised their family in Fair Haven.
Saddle up, Fair Haven! The Foundation of Fair Haven has announced its first Haven Hoe-Down, promising a rootin’ tootin’ good time while raising funds for the Fair Haven Day and other community initiatives.

A reprise celebrating Fair Haven Fire Department Installation Dinners of the past with good line officers and department members of the past, many now gone, because the department reprised its traditional Installation Dinner over the weekend. Look back with us and remember the faces of those who served and leave behind a strong legacy to help.
It’s an honored, good-time tradition. The Fair Haven Fire Department recently had its Installation Dinner. Every New Year, new line officers are officially installed and honored and outgoing officers and members are honored in a thank you dinner dance.

They call it a gaggle of geese, because when geese get together, they’re so excited to hang out that they are quite rambunctious. Well, maybe just have a lot to say. And they’re a close-knit bunch — just like this group of RFH girls from the early 80s.

Raise your plastic cups and party on! It’s time for a little chill and retro toast to the impending weekend of snow and taking the snap out of the cold snap with the warmth of some RFH guys of the late ’70s and early ’80s.
