Please Say A Prayer for My Cousin's Husband

Dear God, I pray for the cure of cancer. Amen

All you are asked to do is keep this circulating. Even if it's to one more person. In memory of anyone you know that has been struck down by cancer or is still living with it.

For my Brother-in-Law William Wallace Roberson and in memory of my Aunt Katie

Regards,

Aruba Pictures (From Beth)

Here are pictures Beth took in Aruba and wanted to share:

Chris & Jane Have a New Pet

"Well today we went and got Natasha, a companion!
Not that she is happy right now about it, but in the last 4 hours she is hissing a lot less! (laughing)
Our new kitty is Autumn, 8 lb and 3 1/2 years old. She was a rescue from the Mosaic Feline Shelter. She looks similar to Missy, the barn cat that came with the house when Paul (Chris) bought it.(photo attached) The picture looks a little prissy but she is not at all! Just camera shy, she did not want her picture taken
It was love at first sight, she is quiet, likes other animals and kids. Very affectionate, neutered, shots and does not have to be combed!
We may get another dog but not right away. "
Jane & Chris James (My nephew from Michigan)
