Sunday, May 10 was Mother’s Day. Do hope that all those who have living mothers honored them on that special day. The people of Evergreen Baptist Church were among the area churches that did so. They passed out red roses to the mothers that were present. Also, the Mexican restaurant Juan and Linda’s passed out red roses to the women present. Good of them to do so. God bless all our mothers and bless the memory of those who have passed away.
