Holly Ridge Happenings
Good morning
Get up open your heart open your mind dedicate your day to God. Meditate, optimize your resources and remove all negative thoughts never underestimate your potential. Inspire someone to never lose faith. Go out with joy and confidence.
There is no perfect life, no perfect joy, no perfect childhood, no perfect marriage, and no people who will do what we want them to do perfectly. What we do have is a perfect GOD who is able to lead us through this imperfect life with unfailing strength, incomparable wisdom and infinite love.
The Cheek sisters, Denise Thompson, Tammy Jonson, Debra Cheek, Cheryl Cardova all from Rayville, Connie Jo Burney from Jackson Mississippi, Sandra Guest from Dallas Texas were in Shreveport recently for a girls night out. They stayed in the LaQuinta Hotel enjoying eating at Strums Coffee and pie place. They also exchanged Christmas gifts, that was a hoot. They enjoyed their time spent together!
Coming by the store on Wednesday were Judy Hough and her mom, Jean Oldham from Oak Grove. We had our coffee time then Mrs Jean had her favorite ice cream before leaving. She and Judy both looked great!
Sue Cobb from Lafayette was here during New Years. She got to hunt on her brothers Inky’s place but with her brother, Jerry’s gun. Well it was a muddy hunt when she fell down in a muddy field with no one near. Finally she called her brother, Jerry, and he went to her rescue but, my, what a sight. Were very proud that she got all cleaned up and is now doing fine.
Louise and I went to the Memorial service for Art Sharplin at Swartz Baptist Church. Elizabeth Sharplin was there also and Sue and Donald Norman from Mountain View, Ark. Lois Saucier Grafton from Ruston and Marjone Cellio filled a pew for Holly Ridge. The Sharplin family, Cathy and her children were very sweet and the service was great.
My Greg and Jeanne are going to have to move off the island hunting club again. The mighty Mississippi River is rising again and the ferry is not going to be in operation.
Well, how about them Tigers! (L.S.U. this is.) It was quite a game after we got started. I thought early on we had a bad night, but like one of the L.S.U Tigers said, “God is good all the time.” That meant a lot to me. They made Louisiana proud for the 2019 Season. Go Tigers!!!
