8-(18& 19)-8 with O.Hinds

1. After Sav-A-Lot and Post office chores, I stopped by cousin, Irene Benson for a bit. Irene is fortunate to have good mental faculties after her stroke and heart attack. She told me that her walking/exercise buddy, Anna Gene Glover has had her cancer return. Just a month ago and those two were leading the pack. Now they must take it very carefully... 'just shows to go ya! Bufe & Beckey brought Mom's sewing machine and the old maple finish stereo over to the Pecan Grove property. I recall mother using the machine to make all of us  quilts before she went away.
2. George Ford and I tried to get his truck and '88 Escort car to start... my starter battery was too low. Anyway we had to give it up for today. George is 99 years old but still has a sense of humor... back to Plantation Home.
3. Louise Noblin Gooch's visitation at Sardis, MS tonight. Derrick and crew spent the night at his mother's for the funeral tomorrow.
4. 8-19-8
5. George Ford & I got both vehicles going! I like the old '47 Ford Truck. George wants a certain price for both of them. I put the No-Trespassing sign up on his property on Church Street(just north of the church). A fellow named Jerry had boosted the truck battery over night , as I had my starter battery.
6. Beck and I attended Louise's funeral and burial at Jonesboro Memorial Park. We were an hour early and talked to Brian Davis and his friend, who put up the tent and will interr the casket and vault. we visited with so many of the Noblin/Gooch/Hinds families. Among them were Billy Jr./Ronnie/ Terry/Don/Ola Grace/Frances Noblin. Betty Noblin Gobbell/Debbie & John/Mike,Jamie/ Amy/ Josh/Jeremy Gooch. William/Carrie/Jonathan/Melissa, Chris Hinds, Derrick/Marrianne/Mark/Stephen/Kevin/Tisha Hinds; Brenda Noblin, O.B. Gladden(from Dyess)... Wade,Staci Hinds, Shanna, Dylan & Ashten McVay. I will add others as I remember them. Beck and I ate at Cici's Pizza... home. The kids were shooting hoops... wrote on this blog.... O.Hinds
