CARDS K^OF»3 THANKS For the many phone calls, letters and cards my daughter and I received while she was seriously ill in Illinois, we say a “Big Thank You". Loving friends lightened our concern when things were a bit shaky. New friends I made revealed there are great people everywhere. To come home to a clean apartment, laundry done, not to mention the “Welcome Home Retta" sign in my kitchen, gave me the assurance that folk in Walkerton are the greatest. Mrs. Newton Williams I want to thank Pastor and Sister Shelly and the people of the First Baptist C hurch and everyone who prayed for me while I was in the hospital and since I have been home. The cards, flowers and other remembrances were just beautiful. I thank God for all He has done for me.
