Happy Celebration
On 23rd Wedding
Anniversary Event
Mrs. Richard Pace celebrated
her 23rd wedding anniversary in a
happy and unusual manner last
Sunday by attending church ser
vice at the Baptist church here
with Mr. Pace, after having been
confined to a wheel chair for six
years.
“I just can’t express my happi
ness in being able to go to church
again,” Mrs. Pace said to friends
who were greatly surprised at see
ing her at church.
Although she had been discour
aged often by statements from her
friends and doctors that she would
never be able to walk, Mrs. Pace
has had faith to believe that she
would walk again.
Her many friends here have ex
pressed the hope that she will con
tinue to improve and will soon be
able to completely abandon her
wheel chair.
