Fantastic Selections

One Again, I have received some outstanding Angel recognitions. You will certainly agree when you read on:

Cleo Prestridge — because she is loving, caring and generous and because her faith has carried her through many trials.

Cora Beason — who is sometimes referred to as the Energizer Bunny, has a heart of gold and is always ready to share a few gems of wisdom whether you ask for them or not!

Jackie Howle — is an Angel because of all she does all year round for everyone in Cleburne County.

I will recognize Angels for one more week. If you have a selection, please send the name to me at PO Box 924 or email to rkpsop816@yahoo.com and include one sentence describing why you consider this person an Angel. Your name will remain anonymous.

Bye! Until next week … remember … God bless you all and to all a very Merry Christmas.
