Mrs. Headley was my Home Ec. teacher at Groves High back in the late 70's. She was so sweet, patient, and taught me how to sew my first & only dress, sewing didn't take to me, or me to it! God has another angel!

Beth, Konrad, Lisa and Marvin and families, I don't know if you remember me from Christian Life Church in Sav'h where we met many years ago. I've since seen you, Beth and Konrad, at Statesboro churches. I'm sorry to hear about your mother. Losing a mother has to be one of the toughest things to go through. I'll pray for you and your family. God Bless you. With Christian love, Susan Waters
