" Grover how unfair things can
be.” J

dent, asked the board who
would “fill in” for Mrs. Horton
until a new clerk is hired, and

Mrs. Smith said her resigna-
tion was “not a reflection on the
present council and mayor. It
was just too time consuming and
my interest in politics just wasn’t
there.”
She said she gave McCarter
her letter of resignation Tuesday
at noon, ;
“He just asked me if I didn’t
want to. think ‘about it for
awhile, and I told him no, that
my mind was made up,” she said.
“He thanked me for what I
had done and I thanked him for
the experience I had while I was
there.”
Mrs. Smith said she had been
considering resigning for a long
time. “I had told several people
“three or four weeks ago that I
was thinking about it,” she said.
~ “Politics is just not my life. It
must just be born in some peo-
ple, but not in me. I don’t ever
intend: to run again.”

It is impossible for us to express in words.our love and appreciation
of all of you in the loss of our son and loved one “Toasty”. Losing him
was the most tragic experience we have ever faced in all of our lives,
but it has turned into the most: beautiful experience of. our lives.
"Toasty's” short life here on earth touched many peoples lives, and
we didn’t realize this until his death. ;
Young people today face many temptations that we as parents and
grown-ups cannot or do not want to deal with, but we have an obliga-
tion to them as parents to help guide them as best we can. It seems to
us grown-ups that everything we say or do falls on deaf ears, but the
To our dear friends and loved ones,
we have talked to during this period.
Some “few” people plan to thrive on rumor and gossip during a
time like this concerning “Toasty”, Donna and all concerned, but we
know the relationship of this family with our Creator and what some
few say or do does not matter. 3
We are so very thankful for the many friends “Toasty” and our
family have. Knowing how his life touched so many and how his death
has changed so many in their lives has turned a tragic loss into a
wonderful experience for us all. :
Thanks for everything you all have done for us. -
: We love you all,
