Abe looks back at 150 years ago
Gerald Payn portrays 16th U.S. President Abraham Lincoln during the 45th Annual JEFF Night on Tuesday. This year the dinner was sponsored by the Kiwanis Club at the Bellevue Society for the Arts. Nearly 50 people attended the dinner, which included members from the Kiwanis, Rotary Club, Lions Club and Activities Plus Organization. Payn became Lincoln and shared what his family was enduring exactly 150 years ago, which was shortly after the Civil War began and just before one of his young sons died.
