Sympathy to Terry Thomas on the death of his sister, Sharon Ann Fann who was affectionately known as "Sissy". Her battle with cancer ended Sunday, the 4th.

Also condolences to Kyle Caito on the death of his brother, Larry, who passed away Wednesday, the 7th.
Glad to hear Ian Hefflefinger is home following a very lengthy hospital stay at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital following surgery.

Congratulations to Bobby and Dean Fletcher - they're great grandparents again! Everett Holden Hollandsworth was born the first day of the new year to Jessica and Shane Hollandsworth. He weighed in at a hefty 9 lbs., 1 oz and was 22½" long. Grandparents are Stan and Sandy Fletcher Hollandsworth.

Don't forget to come to the Auburntown Community Center this Saturday anywhere between the times 12:00 to 7:00 p.m. It's the Fish Fry and Silent Auction Fundraiser for Edith McReynolds who has been recently diagnosed with lymphoma and is already undergoing chemo.

The menu includes not only fish but chicken strips, fries, beans, slaw, dessert and drink all for $8.00 for adults, $4.00 for ages 10 and under. The chef is Tim Reed.

A silent auction with lots of homemade goodies and other items are being made available for this event.
All proceeds go directly to Edith to offset medical expenses incurred during this difficult time.

Her quads, Kristen, Erin, Garrett and Marshall are well known as excellent athletes both in the Auburn Grammar and Cannon County High schools.

Br-r-r-r-r! was it cold Thursday morning!! School was 2 hours late.

Eunice Moore celebrates her birthday on the 14th. The 16th was a popular day as Tyler Hickey, Jack Campbell, Pearl Hale and Catie Adams all get to celebrate. The 17th sees John Moore and Drew Zimmer (his 7th) get their cake and ice cream. Tim Reed, Allison Higgins and S. E. Hale put another year away on the 18th which finishes up this week's worth of happy birthday wishes so Happy Birthday you all!

It was 54 years ago on the 14th that David and Joyce Barrett Fuller repeated their marriage vows and it was the 16th 2004 when Donna Owen became Mrs. Jim Sherrell. Happy anniversary.
