V. Irene Prevost, P.M. Brother Clifford S. Spencer Initiated October 28, 1949 Passed on July 13, 2003 There are stars that go out in the darkness, whose silvery light shineth on; There are roses whose perfume lingers, when the flowers are faded and gone; There are hearts full of love and sweetness, whose life current no longer flows; Still their goodness lives on with the living, like the soul of the star and the rose. Sympathy- Is extended to Sister Edythe Spencer on the death of her husband; to Brother Max I. Silber on the death of his son; to Brother Charles R. Harris, Jr., P.P., on the death of his sister; to Sister Beverly F. Burleigh, P.M., on the death of her brother; and to Sister Marjorie H. O'Neal on the death of her brother. Thinking of You- Get well wishes are extended to Sister Patricia W. Hills, P.G.M., who has been hospitalized over the summer and is now at the Greenbriar Rehabilitation Unit. Brother H. "Van" Vliet is now home after a brief few days in the hospital. Also we wish Sister Pamela G. Williams, P.M., well in her recovery from foot surgery; and Sister V. Irene Prevost, P.M., on her recovery from eye surgery. Congratulations- We are so proud of Sister Shelley M. Gullett who received the Loyalty Day Service Award from VFW Post 483 and the Ladies Auxiliary last May for all her hard work in the community! Learning Center- Is looking for volunteers this fall.
