Mamie Eisenhower Visits the Fairfield Inn

We were honored to host a lovely luncheon yesterday for a very special group of veterans.  The servers donned "I Like Ike" buttons and served delicious raspberry poached pears and savory steak and cheese quiche, while the exuberant, trend-setting First Lady Mamie shared fond memories of her husband through his 38 years in the military, to his presidency and retirement.  It was truly an event we will remember for quite some time!

(Living historian Ruthmary McIlhenny portrays Mamie Eisenhower. She has trained and volunteered as a guide at the Eisenhower National Historic site in Gettysburg for 15 years,  Her anecdotes about Gettysburg's most famous couple include insights from historical research, oral histories, and personal meetings with members of the Eisenhower family.)
