Fair Hill

I have changed the title of the news, so I could cover the Pleasant Hill, Nubbin Hill and Fairview area.

It is good to hear that Doris Burke is home from the hospital after suffering a heart attack. Her sister, Mary Lou Nivens, of Blevins is staying with her.

Joyce Tyree lost her mother, Glendene Haynie, who lived in the Shady Grove area. Remember that family in your prayers.

Eva Jones had to go to the hospital Wednesday after suffering from mini strokes.

Tony Overton finally scored Sunday morning by killing a nice 8-pointer. I think he was more proud of the shot he put on the deer than the number of points.

Aaron Morton went to McCaskill to hunt with his dad over the weekend. He said he left the meat in the woods. In other words, he missed. Better lucky next time, Aaron.

You all have a safe and wonderful week.
