Jeff Fuson of Paris visited his grandmother, Louise Frazier, Sunday. He was on his way to Chattanooga to do a project for TVA.
Jeff must have a huge garden at his home in Paris. He brought fresh vegetables: green beans, tomatoes, okra, squash, cucumbers and peppers. Jeff grew up near Little Rock, Ark., and came back to Tennessee to get his electrical engineering degree from Tennessee Tech in Cookeville.
He then joined the Army for four years and moved to Georgia to work for TVA. While there, he attended a university and earned his master’s degree.
Jeff has a wife, Meg Fuson, and twins, Austin and Alyna. Meg is a nurse and the twins are in fifth grade in Paris.
We were glad to see Jeff and know that his future looks bright.
Wayne F. and Deborah F. Fuson of Cabot, Ark. are his parents.
We have been having some beautiful weather with 70 and 80 degrees instead of the 90-degree hot days.
