OLEAN — When Joanie and Ron Jurewicz returned to their long-time home on Dugan Road from a day trip to the Seneca Allegany Casino Monday evening, they received the shock of their lives.
There to greet them was their granddaughter, Stephanie Woodard, and her family.
Mrs. Woodard and her family, husband Brian ‘Clint,’ 4-year-old son Koldyn and 1-year-old daughter Ella-Kay, live in North Pole, Alaska, and had not been to New York to visit Mrs. Woodard’s family in three years due to the cost and planning time involved.
