Mother's Day, with lots
of visitors and several of
our mothers going home

taken out for either
lunch or dinner. Most of
the mothers received
cards and packages dur

received phone calls
from children who live
far away and couldn't be
here. All in all, it has
been a very lovely day
for most of the mothers.

previous year that I can
remember, and we are
very happy for all the

We are all enjoying a
lovely bouquet of
flowers that the Enter

brought to Mina Reid
and Pearl Bobbitt. They
graciously allowed us to
put them on our piano so
everyone could enjoy
them. We have also been
enjoying a lovely ar
rangement that Ms.

her birthday.
We have had several
people bring out
magazines and boxes of
clothes for the residents,
and we appreciate all of
these things.
Our flu and pneu
monia epidemic has
about run its course and
we are thankful for that.
We have all of our
people back in the home
except a couple. Walter
Rivers and John Wilker
son are still in Warren
General Hospital and
Albert Mitchell is still in
North Carolina Me
morial at Chapel Hill.
Now that the weather
has warmed up and we
can open up some win
dows and get some fresh
air, I feel sure this will
help everyone to feel
better.

visitors today included:
Pattie Arlington, Eula
Rivers, Mollie Dye, Lula
