Thomas and Dr. Locord Wilson motored to Houston and spent the week with their children and grandchildren. They had dinner with her father Retired Lieutenant McKinley. One of the many things they enjoy in their March travels is going to the rodeo.
The Wilsons left Houston on Friday to go to their 40th year Anniversary destination Shreveport, LA. It was reported to me that Mr. Wilson received a beautiful wedding ring. The ring has been shown on Facebook. They had a wonderful time celebrating their Anniversary. Praying that the Lord bless them with many more anniversaries.
