Hello everyone! We managed to get through Winter Storm Enzo. The snow was beautiful, and fun to play in for a short while, but I’m glad it is gone. Now it is predicted that we will have temps in the 70’s and 80’s this week, regardless of what the groundhog predicted. Enjoy the spring weather!
Please be in prayer for the friends and family of Mrs. Sherry Gill Simpson. She was a wonderful person who will be missed by so many.
