Good morning from Florence. It looks like another hot summer day.
The Florence Church of Christ bunch enjoyed lunch Sunday at 88 King Buffet at Madison. We celebrated Karen Wentworth and Don Smith’s birthdays. Don was 98 Monday. He lives on Hominy Ridge. It was a good day.
The American Cancer Society Relay will be Saturday June 25th. It will start at noon with the survivors lunch and the first lap at the Ogle Park. Come support your friends teams. Buy balloons for the balloon release at the end of the day. The balloons are $5.00 and take the place of the candles this year. Its a good way to remember your loved ones.
Get well to Pete Lowe. He has spent a few days in the Madison and Louisville hospitals. Also get well to Gary Lee Hambrick.
