THE MANY FACES OF KATE

This almost tells a story of a great love and friendship from beginning to the end. The picture of a grown-up Kate and her grandfather, was made shortly before he left me with all these grandchildren to love. The other grown-up one was on cruise to Nassau. Many on our

trips to Captiva and Northcroft. They were a team. The last five pictures tell the many faces of Kate- - -As a Kitten, a Flutterby, a Princess, a Cowgirl and

as Raggedy Ann. Always the actress and center stage in her parents world!

More sweet birthdays in June...

June has been a busy month of birthdays in our family, too many to number! But, special mention, here at the end of the month, is Daddy's little sister, our 92 year old Aunt Lillie. She is now living in a nursing home in Austell, Ga (Brian Center Nursing Care, 2130 Anderson Mill Road, 30106, if you want to send her a card). Kenneth sends her many cards and packages to help keep her in touch with the distant family. Merry visits every few weeks and says that, although a bit sad, she still has her infectious laugh (for those of you who remember it) and is a joy to be around. So Happy Birthday Aunt Lillie! Today I will WAP (whisper a prayer) in thanksgiving for your life.
Always smiling, Aunt Lillie in her younger days (forward left) at wedding of Mike and Rochelle. Also seen, mother (Macon Floyd), William Dorris, me, probably Dad behind me and Judy.

You thought I forgot you...didn't you Abby? NEVER! How could I forget our baby girl? Abby's birthday is the same day as Aunt Lillie, 6/29.

Happy Birthday, Darling. You grow more beautiful with each year.

ANOTHER YEAR OLDER AND STILL A HAPPY FACE

Just look to see who turned another year older and

guess who wishes much happiness and

much love from that house full of

men.

I should have called but never did think about it until

it is too late, but I enjoyed my phone

wishes from Jacob and the boys.
I believe he was spokesperson.

Could there have ever been a more beautiful baby

anywhere than this one held so

tenderly by her big brother.

Your mother was so proud and enjoyed

dressing you in beautiful little

clothes, such as this little yellow dressing gown.

I wish you a good year and I love you.

Granddaughter, Rebecca Lynn

Rebecca on her new job. She is employed at a place

where uncared for and unwanted sometimes injured

children are sent. It is affiliated with Emory.

One problem, she falls in love very easily, and wants

them all to take home. What a wonderful heart she

has for the little sweet ones. She is enjoying her work

and is a great asset to her co-workers.

We are proud of you Becca, what a heart!

Guess who has a birthday today?

I am invading the Queen's Blog to wish her the Happiest of
God bless you and keep you, just for us!

-Merry

I find myself so privileged to be sitting in the mist of this great group of

ladies once a month when we have our monthly Sunday School Class

luncheon and meeting. I am surrounded by the best that you find, the

Hope Class, teacher Natalie Chesnutt.

The ladies, Margaret and Frances ----Hazel and Oma----Doris, Frances,

Loraine and Natalie----Barbara and Mable

The last picture shows the winner take all, Margaret taking in the money

Well we make little donations at these meetings and on Sunday morning

to do some special projects, Margaret our Treasure is raking in the gifts.

I wish all of you could hear our wonderful teacher, what a gift and

Thank God for the Gift

Merry's going to Amelia

Island this week-end.

The rest of us will be

remembering a life well
lived, and reminiscent

of days gone by.

As the Lord said in the

book of Matthew "I tell

you the truth" we are a

family of doing.

Did I tell you that Yunel

Escobar hit a home run

tonight, winning the game

in the 10th.I didn't have to

look thatword up in dictionary and

it is spelled correctly. Just so you know I am keeping up with my mind. Be of good courage

and your heart and your back will be strengthened.
