Memorial Baptist Church will have Homecoming on June 5, with featured singers Right on Time. Everyone is welcome. Sympathy is extended to the family of Buster Chapman, in his death. His wife, Mary, has been so faithful. She went to the nursing home every day to be with him. I enjoyed listening to WJLE Radio’s coverage of the All Day Gospel Singing from the DeKalb County Fairgrounds in Alexandria. I love gospel music. I turned on the radio before it came on and turned it off after it all went off. Thanks to Dwayne Page for broadcasting it, so that people that are not able to go can listen too. The singers did a great job. I was especially proud of my niece –Angie Meadows—and her children, Stephanie and Brandon Rackley. They are also a blessing to us at New Home Baptist Church where Angie is the pianist. While listening to the program, I remembered how I always enjoyed going to gospel singings many years ago with my neighbor Mattie George. While musing, I thought about one particular Sunday singing. I cooked dinner before going to New Home Church where J.D. and Ralph would have something to eat because Mattie and I had planned to leave our church immediately after the service and head out to Snow Hill Methodist Church where there was to be dinner on the ground as part of the all day singing. While rushing about that morning, I forgot to get one of my favorite hats to wear to the singing. Back then in the 1950s, many of us women didn’t believe we were properly dressed unless we also wore a hat. When Mattie and I left New Home, I saw her hat and remembered that I had forgotten mine. Mattie said to not worry because she had an extra one in the truck of her car. Thankfully, it fit me. We enjoyed the singing, and then when I returned home, Uncle Claude, Aunt Willie and Uncle Bob White were at our house. While we were visiting, a thunderstorm came up and rained hard for about 30 minutes. Uncle Bob said that he would like to buy any eggs that I had. So, I hurried out to the henhouse to gather up the eggs. Rushing to get back into the house before the rain started again, I slipped and fell on the back porch bruising my leg painfully. But, the good news is that I did not break a single egg, and I wound up selling Uncle Bob four dozen.
