Stockman
and Thereabouts
- March 9, 2010
By Pat Crawford
I forgot to report on our new
Stockman Church member last
week; we are so happy that Teresa
Murdick has become a member
of our little group. We also
want to wish her a speedy recovery
from her recent surgery. She,
Dorlene, and Lurline are beginning
a sewing ministry. I think the
information may be in the paper
this week.
We extend our sympathy to the
family of Bernice Franks Davis
who passed away last week. Her
services and burial were in
the Angleton area. Bernice is
a cousin to the Stockman Franks
and Ramseys and was such a sweet,
precious person. We were all
so happy when she and her family
came driving up to the Stockman
Homecoming in October. She is
survived by her children Judy,
Jerry, David, and Kenny; she
was preceded in death by a daughter
Lois. We Franks and Ramseys
have fond memories of going
to Ross and Bernice's and playing
with all the kids. We also hope
that Jerry is feeling much better.
I enjoyed a very pleasant birthday
on Friday thanks to my friends
and students. Cash Tomlinson
made me a chocolate birthday
cake, helped by his mother Suzanne.
Jerrie Strahan made beautifully
decorated cupcakes and Terrie
Nix provided cokes and ice cream
for Randy Browne and me. Randy
and his brother Andrew turned
15 on Sunday, so we shared birthday
treats.
On Saturday Chris, Zack, Pam,
Donna and I went to Shreveport
for a delicious birthday dinner
and a little shopping.
I received many "happy
birthday's" on Facebook,
which I really don't know how
to use.
Tonight Jessica Strahan and
I will celebrate our birthdays
together as we have been doing
since she was born 24 years
ago.
I visited Aunt Marie and Uncle
James on Sunday morning for
a little while. Their neighbor
Judy Stegall has been a little
under the weather. I hope she
is feeling much better.
Larry had some fishing company
on Saturday afternoon. Don Gibbons,
Ronnie Renick, and grandchildren
came fishing. Erica Renick caught
a good-sized fish; Larry made
a picture of her and the fish.
She is growing up so fast.
