By Lisa Smith, Nest 610 Vice President
The tables were turned on Rose Niedzwiecki when family and friends gathered at the Nest 610, Erie, Pa., Club to honor her with a surprise “happy hour” gathering a few days shy of her 76th birthday, which was June 28.

Known for her outstanding Polish cooking, “Babe” Niedzwiecki has endeared herself to scores of Nest 610 members and visitors during her 25 years of service at the Club, which is located at East 3rd St. in Erie.

Approximately 80 guests were on hand with best wishes for “Babe.”
