I saw the Easter bunny hippity hopping back down the bunny trail Sunday night. He waved and said, “I’ll see you all again March 28, 2027!”
Love and sympathy to the Rusty Dogan family of Searcy, Ark. Rusty passed away April 2. Rusty was the son of Jerry and Ollie Simmons Dogan. I remember Rusty when he was a young boy, full of life and so much fun to be around.
Diane Dukes sent us four large boxes of food and two different desserts on Saturday, and we made three meals out of it. Thank you so much for thinking of us, Diane!
Diane Dukes and her family met at the “Four Roses” and had their Easter egg hunt and meal on Saturday. They all had a good time.
I talked to Trudy Simmons Monday morning, and we decided our falls that we had recently were age-related. Surely not!
Freda and Frank Weir spent Easter Sunday with Jessie Williams and family.
Martha Box reported beautiful sunshine and a lovely ride to Pope Willow Springs Assembly of God, followed by a special, spirit-filled message of Easter’s meaning by Bro. Tommy Darby, said Martha Box. This was followed by the Holy Spirit’s interruption message for the salvation of souls everywhere. What an Easter message — He suffered, died, and arose alive for us!
They had a great Easter gathering at Martha’s house with a lot of tasty food prepared by such good cooks. Granddaughters Marnie and Addie assisted Martha, especially when her shoulders and hands went into malfunction mode. Those girls are great cooks already. They also celebrated grandson Jake Harrison’s birthday Sunday. Easter was a great celebration!
Then Jake showed the film! They had taken Martha’s old home movies of her babies in our way-back-then youth and fixed them to view on TV. Yes, she squalled as they reminisced!
Sadie and Milton Harper had a blessed Easter. Sadie said it was the first time in a long time that all three of her children were at church together. They also had their great-grandson Tyler with them, but he got sick and had to leave church. They all had a great Easter.
Tyler Welch and Kristie Hartley went turkey hunting and brought home two big turkeys.
Phil and Ginger Harrison and boys had a great day celebrating Easter. Jake led the music and sang the special at Pine Grove Easter morning. It was very good. Bro. Scarborough gave a very moving sermon. Ginger said they were blessed by the service. They all, including Diane Hill and Linda Harrison, gathered at Moma’s (Martha Box’s) for Easter lunch and to celebrate Jake’s birthday and said it was a fabulous day.
Celebrating birthdays this week are Keith Beck on the 9th, Tara Williams Upchurch, Chase Newman, and Liz Brannon Trotter on the 10th, Brother Truman Scarborough on the 12th, Betty Neal and John Dukes on the 13th. I hope you all have a wonderful time celebrating your special day!
Thought for the day: I don’t know who needs to hear this, but you’re a great gardener. That plant really should have tried harder.
