About a month ago I had said that Ellie Donaldson had received the William O. Hickey Endowment Scholarship. A week ago I received notice from Northwest Community College that a young man from Charleston had also received a William O. Hickey Endowment Scholarship. He is Ashton Montgomery. Congratulations to these two young people!

Saturday morning Tammy and I attended the funeral of Barbara Jean Turner at McKibbin and Guinn Funeral Home in Grenada. We met her brother and saw lots of members of the Turner family. Barbara Jean will certainly be missed by her family and members of the Coffeeville Church of Christ. Her brother-in-law, Brother James Brown, officiated the funeral.

Brother Les Ferguson of Kosciusko was the guest speaker at the Coffeeville Church of Christ Sunday morning. He gave this adage “You not only have to talk the talk, but you have to walk the walk”.

I am looking forward to receiving a copy of the Tom Thumb Wedding picture. I was in the play in I think 1949. Jettie Williams told me that Ronnie’s (her husband) mother had one of the pictures. I once had a copy of the picture, but I can’t find it anywhere. Some of the people in the picture are dead. I can remember that Ronnie Williams was the one I walked up to the stage with and I also remember that Dorothy Roberson Ellard sang “I Love You Truly”. I do remember that the late Barbara Rose Prevost Wheat was the bride and Kenneth Pritchard was the groom. The late K. C. Peters was the preacher.

My great nephew Presley Strickland, who is with the U.S. Marines came home from California last week and left early Monday morning for Hawaii where he will be stationed. His grandmother is Dianne Hickey Strickland of Nesbit.
