Gordonsburg/Little Swan News

The past week has been like summer weather, still having showers which is a good thing for pastures and gardens will not grow without rain and the sunny day have been good for those who have been cutting hay.

Those I know of who are sick either at home, in nursing facilities or in the hospitals are: Joyce Barnes, Kenley Bates, Colene Beasley, Lois Bennett, Gertie Carroll, Kathleen Carroll, Spencer Clark, Peggy Cook, Pat Dickson, Callie Garrison, Ophelia Green, Carolyn Hargrave, Calvin Harris, Shirley Howe, Monette King, Claire Elizabeth Mayberry, Doug Miller, Howard Miller, Jackie McFall, Thomas Marrow, Carla Murphy, Beverly Sue Novogurski, Lonnie Odom, Joy Orman, Roger Pace, Debbie Pierce, Mike Runions, Russell Runions, Johnnie Faye Skelton, Terry Stutts, Jeff Tatum, Diane Williams, Annette Williams and Jerry Yates. Remember these in your daily prayers that they might be better and for any others that need prayers.

We wish a happy birthday to Kylie Creasy June 1st, Tammy Williams the 3rd, Jerry Morris and Amanda Rahman the 4th, Cathey Carroll and Bryson Barber the 5th, and Marlene Holt the 7th. We wish for these a very happy birthday and many more years to celebrate life.

Happy anniversary to William and Carrie Whaley May 29th, to Kenneth and Vickie Bates June 5th, and Jerry and Annett Morris the 5th, we wish for these couples a very happy anniversary and many more years to celebrate life together.

Prayers for all those who have lost loved ones this past week. These are the ones I know about Thurman “T. R.” Runions, Karen Elizabeth Buckley, and Henry Boyce Sims. Prayers for all these families and any others about which we may not know.

We had a good homecoming at Palestine Cemetery, but many were not able to attend, if you were not able to be there to make a donation for the upkeep of the cemetery please send your donation to the Regions Bank for the up keep of Palestine Cemetery. Our donation was short to meet the mowing expense this year.

The Lewis County Historical Society will meet on June 5th, at the Senior Citizen Building at 6 pm, and make plans to attend. Some time back Mr. Doug DeWitt presented a program for us, and it was very informative and interesting, and he had videos and pictures as I am sure he will this time; he will be doing our program on June 5th, 2023 at the Senior Citizen building.

Take time this week and always to help those who are shut in or sick and cannot do the things they would love to do; maybe help with some shopping or other need they have and phone calls, cards or visits would be nice also to let them know we care.
