Hi Mary Nell, I visited the Tech1952 Website and saw your notice that George Harmon had died. A tribute to George Harmon may be found by Millsaps College. I think his Tech High classmates might be interested in that tribute. George was my wrestling coach when I was at Tech. Go to millsaps.edu and type George Harmon in the faculty search at the top of the screen. I tried to include the tribute in this email but was unsuccessful. As you can see, he was well regarded by his faculty and friends at Millsaps College. Thanks, Mason Richard (Sam's little brother) |

Talked to Cliff Acred the other night. He is recovering from back surgery and is back to work a little. Let's keep him in our prayers. Also sympathy to Florine and Bill Cochran in the death of Florine's sister-in-law. Stopped by to see Barbara Espey Burke today. She wants us to keep their family in our prayers.. Now for the good news! Pat Humphries Miller is now a member of the Sunshine Committee. She will be taking over the October and November Birthdays. I am so grateful for anyone who steps forward to help this committee, I sure couldn't do it alone. Dan Goodwin will not increase my salary one little bit, so at this time all I get is satisfaction from the Committee, which is payment enough.. Thanks for all you do, Candy |

A call from Bille Jean Word Faller last night revealed that Bobby Sullivan has had two recent surgeries. He is doing okay but lets keep he and Anne in our prayers. Also talked to Florine Cochran today and they are doing fair. They make frequent trips to the Doctors, which wears them both out. Also keep those who need our prayers, we are unaware of, in our prayers. Thanks, Candy |
