Well, what else is there to say? The title sums up the blessed time Robert and I spent in OKC earlier this month. From Mrs. Marshall’s enthusiastic greeting at the airport and the hospitality of the Gomezes, Burnetts, and Prentises, who all opened their homes for us, to the many friends we had a chance […]
What a joyous occasion! Grandma and Grandpa Brannon came to celebrate with Rhubarb pie on Friday night. Matthew 19:6 says “Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.” Thank you Dad and Mom for keeping your vows and being faithful to each […]

What a delight to experience the hospitality of the Stelzl family over the past couple of days! It was beautifully demonstrated from the time we pulled up into their driveway. Inside awaited delicious soup selections, grilled chicken, terramazzu, and peanut butter pie, just to mention a few of the fabulous wonders brought forth in the […]
