Peggy Butler from Rosenberg, Texas, was home visiting her Dad, Alvin Butler, over the weekend.

We had fellowship at church on Sunday. We had a lot of good food. We usually have a visiting preacher on the fifth Sunday. This time it was Mark Falkner, who preached a good message, then we ate.

We also had a get together on Friday night with Rocky and Paula Cummings. So you can tell we like to eat.

Friends and loved ones paid their respect to Thomas Silvey on Tuesday of last week. He was an educator and promoter of betterment of a community. He will be missed.

I talked to Ted Claus on Saturday in San Antonio, Texas. They were fine. A daughter, Laurie, and her family were to move to Dallas, but they haven't made it yet.

Ruby Mullins from Dallas visited her sister, Ruth Baker, one night.

Phyllis Butler didn't make it home this week. She is having back problems. She is some better, I think.

Harvell and Nell Butler visited Deck and Earlene Butler. They had supper with them and played dominoes.

I heard some talking of gar-dening. Their potatoes were up, as well as some peas. Someone else said their radishes were up. So listen and you can hear all kinds of reports. I don't have a garden. A little rocky for that.
