Don and Treba Hawkins celebrated their 44th wedding anniversary April 14 in the Smoky Mountains.

Don and Treba, along with Shane and Brittany Miller and daughters, went to a car show in Pigeon Forge, the week before last. It was enjoyed by all. The Flu has been going around, and Treba was one of the unlucky ones to catch it. She is doing much better now.

Queda Ferrell went to the doctor and got a good report. She is doing great, such wonderful news.

Ella Rich returned home from Huntsville, Alabama visiting her son.

Ernest Pack, step-father of Treba Hawkins, has been very sick for the last two months, but he is doing better now. Treba says "Thank God for his healing power."

Trent and Michelle Hawkins will be celebrating their first wedding anniversary on May 2. Congratulations, and may the Lord bless you both, and may you have many more.

A birthday celebration was held at the home of Joyce Mullinax for her mother, Hazel Hibdon who turned a young 101 years old on April 26, and her son, Greg Mullinax. His birthday was on May 1. A total of 33 family members attended this celebration. Everyone enjoyed the day and the time they got to spend together.

Douglas and Barbara Ann Ervin had a birthday dinner for Ryan Winfree. His birthday was on April 29.

Rebecca Ervin, Pam Page, Mark, Kimberly Violet, Hunter, Ryder, Cooper and Tucker Stanfield attended the Jones Reunion in Jefferson. This reunion is held once a year. It is nice to see everyone.

I hope everyone enjoys this coming week. Be sure to wish your mother a happy Mother’s Day. Do something nice for her, spend the day with her, call her, and send flowers, card. If your mother is no longer here do something nice for an aunt, sister, or a friend.
