Exercise improves memory Researchers assigned women ages 70 to 80 with mild cognitive impairment to 6 months of either toning and stretching, weight lifting or walking briskly. Their verbal and spatial mem-ory was tested before and after the study. At the end of the study, women in the toning group scored worse on the tests than they had at the begin-ning. But those in the other two groups performed better on cognitive tests than before the study. While both the walking and resistance train-ing groups improved equally in spa-tial memory, the women in the walk-ing group showed even greater gains in verbal memory than the weight lift-ing group.

THANK YOUThe family of Gene Anderson wishes to extend our sincere
appreciation to all who extended many kindnesses to our Dad during his illness, and to our family since the time of his
passing. The support, messages of sympathy and shared
remembrances have meant more than words can say. We would
like to extend a special thank you to those who gave memorials in memory of Gene. The gifts of money have been given to the
Foundation for PSP and to North Blue Earth Church in honor of our
Dad. Thank you also to Pastor Nancy Dreier of NBEC who did such a nice job with the service,
Gene and Shirley would have been pleased. Gene truly enjoyed the many friendships and comradery that he shared with people in this community for his entire life, and it is through you all that we will
fondly remember our Dad.Darren, Christine
