Barbara and Hue Bob Bailey spent Friday and Saturday with Jack and Jane Vickers in Huntsville, AL They were celebrating Hue Bob’s birthday.

Shirley Atnip and Kathleen Bean and boys Austin and Jordan Bean attended the Atnip family reunion at the Cedars of Lebanon last weekend. Close to fifty people attended. This was a yearly event. They enjoyed lots of good food and just being together again.

Eric and Tina Hice and children Victoria, Jeremiah, Caleb, Kyle and Amelia from Little Valley, NY visited their aunt Bonnie Stacy on Tuesday. They treated me to lunch at the Cracker Barrell in Manchester, before going on to Fall Creek Falls to meet with friends. Tina is the granddaughter of the late Odell and Ann Stacy. Odell grew up in Cannon County, but spent most of his life in Tonawonda, NY.

He has achieved success who has worked hard, laughed often and loved much.

Act yourself into a new way of thinking. Think yourself into a new way of acting.

The smallest good deed is better than the grandest intention.

Better to try something and fail than to try nothing and succeed.
