Spread Kindness
Delie Shepard’s guests for the week were Eric Ross, Josiah Ross, Leslie Ross, Bonnie Floyd Stowers, Margie Sanders, and James Harris.
I talked to Nettie Stowers, and she told me that she had been hospitalized for several days and “The doctors had patched her up.” She was out of the hospital and doing well. She expressed her sorrow of not being able to attend the Century Family Reunion in Houston, TX even though she planned on attending and made all necessary reservations. Her decline in health prevented the trip.
Next week I plan on letting my readers know who attended. Those from Forest attending were Thomas and Dr. Locord Wilson, Leslie Ross, Dr. Lorraine Dozier, and Glen Dale Beamon. The person who traveled farthest to attend the reunion was Denise Beamon Christian residing in San Diego, CA, which is over 1,400 miles from Houston, TX.
Two of Jennie Clay’s guests for the week were daughter Regina Clay Horcoff of Detroit, MI and granddaughter Elyse Clay of Birmingham, AL.
