Oh, for some of the
cool, breezy days of fall.
It has been so hot that
everyone is complain
ing, even the ones who
complain of being cold
all the time. Our trees,
shrubs, flowers and
grass are all dying from
lack of rain, even
though we have had
several light showers.
We have had several
people to bring things
out to the rest home
recently for the resi
dents. Most of them
didn't want to leave
their names, but we
thank them just the
same. We had a beauti
ful bouquet of mums
brought to us compli
ments of Henderson
Assembly No. 195 and
Village Florist in Nor
lina. Ms. Clarice
Greene came over to
visit and brought them
to us. They have been
out in our living room
all this week and were
certainly enjoyed by all
of us.
The people in the
communities surround
ing us have been so kind
to us here and we
appreciate everything
that they do. We can
never say "Thank You"
enough. Please don't
ever forget that we are
out here and will always
need your kindness and
caring.

them would appreciate
a card from you on their
special day.
The ladies from
Shady Grove Methodist
Church are still provid
ing the ingredients for
our monthly birthday
party. They always
bring us beautifully
decorated cakes and
punch for everyone.
These ladies have been
doing this for the last
two years and the
residents look forward
to their coming each
month. Birthdays are a
real special thing to
these people, and even
though we only have
one party a month,
everyone shares in it.
Mr. and Mrs. Clyde
Smith and James Ed
monds always look on
our calendar and see
those who have birth
days each week and
they sing "Happy Birth
day" to them each
Sunday morning.
We still badly need
underclothes for both
men and women in all
sizes. We have plenty of
street clothes right now
but do need the under
clothes. We also need
bedroom shoes in all
sizes for both men and
women.
Till next week, God
bless.
