A Mini Reunion of Class of 1959 - St. Pauls High
Over the Christmas Holiday at Edisto Beach we had the chance to have lunch with Ginny King, Roy and Beth Smoak, and Eddie Mack and Joyce. Roy, Ginny and Joyce are members of the St Pauls Class of 1959. I was class of 1958 and Eddie Mack was 1955. We had lunch at the Waterfront Restaurant and managed to eat and talk for over 2 hours. A grand time was had by all. We hope to have a repeat this summer and hopefully add a few more folks to the party.

The Snow of 2010 in Spartanburg
The flag finally got to see some snow - 4 inches total.
Looking up our street towards our home.
This is the snowman at our neighbor's Mike and Tina's home. They used all the snow on their yard to build it.

Christmas in Rock Hill - 2010
Papa is Matthew's great grandfather. He is 97 years old. He lives in a nursing home in Rock Hill. He is holding Jan's hand and he did not let it go during our visit!
Papa had cancer of the voice box about 50 years ago and needs vocal assistance. But he doesn't use any aid anymore. You have to read his lips. Well, Jan is the best at doing that. And even she has a diffficult time with it.
Papa so enjoyed our visit. Notice him holding onto Jan's hand.
Matthew and Papa have always been close. When Matthew was a little boy, he would spend the weekend with Papa and Granma Annie.
Jan helped Papa get ready for lunch.
This is the Christmas tree at Matthew and Aimee's home.

Divinity Care Facility Christmas Party 2010
We had our 5th Annual Christmas Party at Blue Bay Restaurant on December 7, 2010. DCF has had an outstanding year. We are purchasing our building instead of paying rent. We are improving the facility through upgrades and improvements to the building. We are using Pat Kabore as our Case Manager which has enabled us to provide better service to our residents. We recently completed a very successful Christian Rally at DCF. We are focusing on our main objective of caring for homeless men. And we thank the good Lord for all these blessings.
