East End Events

A very Happy Mother's Day to all moms this past Sunday!!  What would we do without MOMS?

JoAnn and Tammy Harris met Trista Pryor and family in Lamar on Saturday and watched Hunter play soccer.  Afterwards, they went out to eat and celebrate Trista's birthday and Mothers Day.  Happy Birthday Trista.

We are glad to hear that Marlin Stum is out of the hospital and feeling much better.
