    Notes:

    See Herbert for full notes.

    When they moved to Richmond, She made Herbert build a high wooden privacy fence around the backyard and she kept chickens. I remember her in her apron chasing a chicken around the yard, so we would have fresh chicken for lunch one Sunday. She made the biscuits and dessert (banana pudding) and Calvin would always fry the chicken in an old high side cast iron skillet. There were family dinners one Sunday a month.

    Grandmother slept in an old feather bed that she loved and wouldn't sleep in a regular bed at all. She kept her snuff can under the bed.

    Grandmother by Faye Howard:
    You asked me about things I remember about Grandmother too. Here it is. Grandmother would always crouch down to use the phone. She could touch her toes at 80ty. Her nick name was "Pinky". She loved to dip snuff, but she hid in her bedroom so we wouldn't see her spit. She loved to play Canasta, which she taught many of us to play, and taught us how to eat King Syrup mixed with butter on bread that was delicious. She was a homebody and kept the home very clean. She made a beautiful quilt with Granddad, Granddad's Dog and mule or horse, Thelma, Calvin, others on it chickens, flowers and so much more. She made it out of the old clothes and scratch material she found laying around. She was a very good sewer. Grandmother loved her flowers and bushes, she was on the quiet side but carried a big bat. When the children at Fox School would kick a kickball, bat a baseball or throw a basketball in her back yard she would run them out of the yard and later return them to the Principal after we played with them for a while. She would be so upset because the children would climb the fence, breaking it sometimes and killing her plants and flowers stepping or jumping on them. The children use to call her the Wicked Witch. Grandmother nor I ever forgot what I am about to tell you and she even talked to Mom about it when she was dying that she never forgot the day I stood up to her with my hands on my hips and told her, "I could be just a stubborn as she was", then I walked out of the house across the street by myself and bought me some candy and ate it before I walked back into the house to get my punishment for not obeying her. You see Grandmother, even when I thought I was too old for naps, made me take one. She would let Joanie go across the street and buy some candy when they thought I was asleep. I finally got tired of just pretending I would sleep and got up when Joanie came back into the house with her candy in hand. I told Grandmother I was going to get me some. Well, she said I was not unless Joanie took me across the street. Joanie decided she would not take me across the street until she was ready too. Then Grandmother said I could not go. That's when I said what I did and did what I did. Would I do it again. "Yes", even though my Daddy gave me the biggest and worse spanking of my life for not respecting my Grandmother and for not doing what she said to do, and I really couldn't go to school and sit down for a week. Grandmother felt so bad that the next time I came over she said, I am really sorry Faye that I told Linwood about everything. I really didn't know he would beat you like that." Of course, I am a Scorpio and we hold grudges for a long time but she knew that day that I was really hurt by the way she and Joanie acted but I forgave her for telling Dad. She wrote articles to the newspapers and I will always remember the one about the verse from the King James Version on, "Spare Not the Rod". I will look up that verse and let you know it as soon as I can. She was very political too and would speak her mind in articles she wrote to the paper. Lynn and Mary were also very political and wrote things. They learned this from Grandmother. She have premonitions. She called Mom early one morning and asked Mom if she had talked to me recently or heard from me. Mom said no and asked why. Grandmother said something is really wrong you should call her. Mom did and I told her I had a miscarriage and was going to tell her about it when I felt better. She told me Grandmother knew something was wrong and that was why she called her and told her to call me. Grandmother told me other times when she knew something was going to happen and they did. Grandmother was Grandmother, I loved her, accepted her and am proud she was my "Grandmother" when I got old enough to understand life a little better instead of through a child's eye that's when I could understand her better.     
             

    (Medical):She broke her hip at 88 years old and was up and walking within 2 years.

    Notes:

    Herbert Calvin Horne, Sr., was born on Jan 8, 1909 at Milton Farms in Disputanta, Virginia. Very little is known about him until his teenage years. *** Check with Landon for younger years In his senior year of high school at Waverly High Schools, he came home one day and told his father that he might as well give him a whipping now because he wasn't going back to school for another day if he had to continue taking chemistry under Mr. Level, because he embarassed the kids that he didn't like and showed favoritism to certain of his cronies children in the class. At this point Calvin Horne quit school and went to work on his daddy's farm for several years. Frank Pulley, a lawyer and businessman came to Calvin and asked him if Calvin would run his store (Lindsey's Store). Calvin took over the running of the store and after a few years, Frank Pulley asked Calvin if he would like to buy the store. Calvin bought this, his first store and ran it for many years. Calvin borrowed the money from his mother and she loaned him the money from what he had been paying her for room and board. She had never spent it but kept in in her trunk in the upstairs bedroom at the farmhouse. The trunk was between the two beds and under the front window. This made a nice down payment on the store and it took Calvin about five (5) years to pay off the rest of the loan to Mr. Pulley. He sold this store and build Horne Sales & service across the road. This new store sold Chrylser/Plymouth cars and tires for the lumber yard people. He had a small grocery, but only sold limited items, mainly for workers to make lunches with. Calvin never mailed a bill. He kept a little notebook that he listed the people he gave credit to. And he never had a customer leave town owing him a bill, even though he never mailed out one. He had one family, with several small children, that he gave credit to, repay him with several musical ukelins to settle their account before they moved to Suffolk. This was Mr. Lupton. One would have paid the bill, but Mr. Lupton insisted he take both. Joan Howard (niece) still has one of these ukelins and Martha Jane (his daughter) has the other one. It should be noted at this point that one of the very few faults Calvin had all his life was a penchant for fast cars. At one point Preston Harrell, the mayor's son, bet Calvin that he could be in Wakefield before Calvin. Calvin then left someone in charge of the store and he and Preston left for Rt. 460 to start the race. Someone squealed to the town cop and he was sitting on the road waiting when Calvin was in front of Preston and saw the town cop. Calvin was able to slow down in time, but Preston hadn't seen the cop and passed Calvin in a blaze of speed, went passed the cop and was going so fast the cop couldn't even clock him, however Preston realized his fat was in the fire and had better stop before things got worse. In another incident, Calvin driving a red car actiually outran the police coming back from Petersburg. He had passed the policeman and the police started chasing him. Calvin managed to take a cutoff on a dirt street behind the old train depot and the cop never saw him and lost Calvin. When he hit the railroad tracks by the depot, Calvin's car went airborne. Calvin never was one to take his time going from one point to another. One one occurrance Calvin Horne was carried upon the wings of angles while driving his car. Preacher Harrell was having a revival in Waverly Baptist Church. Now, Preacher Harrell lived in Claremont and Calvin had arrived at the church ready for the revival meeting, when he was asked where the preacher was. You see, the preacher didn't have a car and certain members were to bring him on given nights. Well, this was Calvin's night and he had forgottten. Calvin made it to Claremont and back and the revival was only 20 minutes late. To this day, people swear that Calvin and the good Lord straightened out all those curves on Rt.40 to get the preacher to the church on time. To this day the 18 to 20 minute run from Waverly to Claremont and back hasn't been beaten. The preacher told Calvin not to worry that the lord was on their side. Calvin didn't remember the ride to Claremont and was 12 miles one way on a crooked curbved road with two small bridges over the Blackwater swamp. In his early teen years Calvin was dating a girl that lived across the road from his families farmhouse, named Evelyn Chesson. She was in love with a boy that had gone in the Navy and Mary Virginia (sister) knew this. She didn't want Calvin dating this girl. One day Calvin came home, put his car keys on the kitchen table and went upstairs to change to take her to a movie in Petersburg. Mary Virginia took his car keys and went out in the yard, yelled up to Calvin to look out the window. She told him she had his car keys and wasn't going to give them back to him since Evelyn Chesson was using him. Calvin yelled for her to hush as he didn't want Evelyn to here Mary. Mary then ran to the outhouse and locked herself and Calvin's car keys inside. Calvin was begging Mary Virginia for the keys and even offered a $5 bill to put the keys on the porch. Mary decided that $5 was worth more than Clavin making a fool of himself over the girl and gave him back the keys. Within a month's time Clavin took Evelyn Chesson to a dance and her boyfriend (Gwaltney Raines) came home on leave, came to the dance, claimed his girl, and Calvin was left standing at the dance, sans girl. Calvin was so mad he tried top run people off the road and when he got home Mary was able to say 'I told you so'. While living in Waverly, Calvin was a member of the Ruritan Club and Rotary Club. Mary Jane Sheffield was born and raised in the house behind the store and Calvin had known her ever since he bought the store. After Calvin bought this store they used to talk over the fence between the store and her house and very soon one thing led to another and they became husband and wife, on June 15, 1940. This was one week before his sister's birthday and her graduation and she was furious with him for not waiting. Of course, Calvin was one of those who used to spoil Mary Virginia. They were married in Waverly Baptist Church, by Rev. Albert Harrell in a small intimate ceremony. Mary Jane didn't have any attendenants and Calvin didn't have a best man. They left and went to New York for the World's Fair for their honeymoon. They stayed with Cyrus & Effie Leap. They also went to Niagra Falls during the honeymoon. When they returned they stayed at Herbert & Mary Horne's farm house until they got an apartment in a house next to the Baptist Church. HC, Jr., was born while they lived in the apt. They then bought a house on West Main Street. It was small brick bungalow with 2 bedrooms downstairs. Martha Jane was born at this house. Mary Jane worked from her teenage years through this time as a waitress and hostess at the restaurant at the corner of Main Street and Rt. 460. She was also choir director at the Waverly Baptist Church. She is remember by everyone as being very beautiful, quiet and loving. During this time Calvin sold H.C. Horne Sales and Service and he and Bob Clark bought Waverly Feed and Seed on Main Street.Note: Mary Jane's father, Cleveland Sheffield was murdered when she was younger. He was the paymaster for Gray Lumber Company and disappeared on a Friday afyternoon, when he was on his way with the payroll to pay the employees. His body was found three weeks later in Blackwater Swamp. The murderer was never apprehended or identified. The family continued to live here until after Mary Jane passed away, shortly after Martha's 3rd birthday. Mary Jane died in January 1951. Mary Jane died from Cirrhosis of the liver, even though she never drank alcohol. This was possibly cancer instead as cancer wasn't widely known at that time and the symptoms were the same as Herbert Horne's stomach cancer. His sister Mary Virginia spend the first six months after Mary Jane's death with Calvin to look after the children and take care of the house. He was able to obtain a Baptist minister's widow from Richmond as a nanny for the children. She was very rough on both H.C. Jr. and Martha, and Calvin ended up having to take HC, Jr. to the store with him. Calvin fired her later. Calvin also sold Massey Ferguson tractors for Surry Implement Co and later sold John Deere tractors for Dudley Robertson Tractor Co. Shirley James Johnson remembers that Calvin could sell anything. He was a born salesman. He met Glayds Bradshaw and married her in 1952. From this marriage was born his third child, Catherine Denise Horne, on September 12,. Calvin then bought the big 2 story white house on Main Street. This had a garage and a side stable that held the pony he got for H.C. and Martha. Of course, all the rest of the nephews and nieces had to ride also. This probably contributed to the pony having a sway back. Every Christmas Calvin and H.C. used to set up a model train that ran all around the living room at this house. This was a tradition for as long as I can remember. We used to put christmas presents on the train and ride them around the room. The parlor of this house was off limits to us kids and was used for company only. The marriage bwtween Calvin and Gladys was not destined to work and they divorced in ?????. Calvin, in partnership with Richard Spain, next purchased a grocery in Petersburg, Va. He stayed there until one of the assistant managers started taking the profits home in groceries. Calvin never prosecuted him and sold the store. He then came to Richmond and lived with Linwood and Mary Virginia Howard. While living here in Richmond he sold Chrylsers and Plymouths at the dealership at Belvidere and Broad St. During this time his son H.C., Jr. went into Demolay and went through the Order and became A Master Councilor of his chapter. It is said that bad things come in three's. This has centainly been the case in Calvin's life; Mary Jane's father died as a young man, Mary Jane died as a young woman and his son H.C. Jr., died as a young man, on Calvin's 68th birthday. For one so honest and caring as Calvin was, he was followed by bad luck with those he loved so much. About a year after coming to Richmond, Calvin bought a grocery store in Thornsburg and the family moved into a house trailer next to the store. I remember that at one point when I was visiting that Calvin decided that H.C. Jr., needed to loose some weight, so he made him dig a drainage ditch all the way around the trailer without stopping. Well, Calvin looked at the ditch HC was digging and decided that it wasn't deep enough, so this drainage ditch turned into being a 3' deep ditch and HC literally sweated buckets digging this ditch. He was so tired that he didn't even think about food that whole day. He did however drink several BIG coke bottles full of water. After this, H.C. started dieting in ernest and lost a most of the extra weight he was carrying around. I guess that he was afraid Calvin was going to make him dig another ditch and he never put the weight back on again. Calvin sold this grocery and moved to Hanover Courthouse where he opened another grocery that was called the Hanover Market. The house was next to the market and had a fenced in yard. His mother lived there with him in 1964 and stayed there for quite a few years. They had a pond out back and an old Packard in the garage that he had received in payment for a customers bill. While there in Hanover Courthouse the great family race took place one year, between Calvin, Linwood Howard, Tommy West and Bob Cowdin. Calvin was driving HC's GTO, Linwood had the old blue Oldsmobile, Tommy had a State Police cruiser and Bob was driving a small sportscar. The race started on U.S. 301 in front of the store and went to the bridge just North of the Courthouse. Tommy, in the State Police cruiser was the winner although Calvin wasn't too far behind.
    A finer, more Christian man would be hard to find.

    (Medical):He had 3 heart attacks over 20 years and an ulcer

    Medical:
    Had a cardiac by-pass

    Residence:
    They had a trailer beside the store. The store is still there. One day Calvin decided that HC needed to lose weight, so he made him dig a 2' ditch around the trailer and then fill it back in. All this was because HC loved his moon pies and cartons of milk (and a lot of other sweets) and put on a lot of weight. HC never went back to a lot sweets again and retained his much lower weight.

She was a member of the Eastern Star and was Matron of Blanche Spencer Chapter of the Eastern Star. In later life and until she died, she lived at the Eastern Star Home in Richmond. She was an avid gardner and everyone remembers how she used to overload us with all types of squash. She attended Tabernacle Baptist Church in Richmond for 30+ years. Bought her house at 312 N. Meadow St and lived there for 20+ years. Prior to that she owned a house in the 1800b of Hanover Ave. She loved to cook and was always bringing her dishes to family events. She would adopt a family every Christmas and make sure they had a Christmas meal and that everyone in the family had presents, especially the children. She instilled in her son that sense of giving to those less fortunate. She was a truly dedicated Christian Woman.

He attended Smithdeal-Massey Business College in Richmond, Va. His hobbies were baseball, horseshoes and fishing. He was a Phi Beta Kappa president. He served in the US Army in WW-II in the 10th Armored Division.

Their first house was at 3314 Patterson Avenue, Richmond, Va., and paid about $11,000 back then. It should also be remembered that gas was only .25 a gallon.

    Notes:

    Died on his father's 59th birthday while home on leave from Howard AFB, Panama. It was snowing very heavily and he and his friend (James (Jimmy) Russell Howard from Spottsylvania) crashed head on into a tractor trailer on Rt. 29 in Amherst County. It is unknow which was driving.

    Calvin gave Gene HC's Demolay ring after HC's death.

    HC was buried with Gene's "original parachute wings" since HC was the one that convinced Gene to go into the Air Force as an Air Traffic Controller (CCT Special Ops)

    HC was dating an American dependant while in Panama and it was getting to be a rather serious relationship. Gene met with her while he was in Panama and she was a very pretty girl and very nice.

    One time while living in Hanover Courthouse, HC and James (Jimmy) bought an old car in Fredericksburg and drove it all the way back with no brakes, except for the clutch and parking brake. They made it with a few hair raising moments.

    Living In:
    They had a trailer beside the store. The store is still there. One day Calvin decided that HC needed to lose weight, so he made him dig a 2' ditch around the trailer and then fill it back in. All this was because HC loved his moon pies and cartons of milk (and a lot of other sweets) and put on a lot of weight. HC never went back to a lot sweets again and retained his much lower weight.

    Air Traffic Controller

    Occupation:

    To her family, Paige was many things: lawyer, chef, cop, nurse, counselor, confidant, and above all, a fierce protector of those she loved. She loved her family and friends. She found joy in the little things, and her special touch and attention to detail is what made her house a home. Paige had a bottomless font of forgiveness and a huge capacity to love. She made this world a better place and she will be dearly missed.
    Following graduation from Suffolk High School, Paige spent many years as a stay-at-home mother. Once all her children were settled in school, she attended Old Dominion University where she studied Business and graduated with honors with a degree in Business Administration. She continued her studies at the University of Richmond and became a Certified Public Accountant. She went to work for the Bank of America in Norfolk and retired as an Assistant Vice President in the credit card department. After retiring from the Bank of America, she remained active in the community, participating in the Red Hat Society and Meals on Wheels, as well as serving on the Harbor Watch Condominium Board.
    Paige is survived by her loving husband, Dr. Robert Cowden, son Allan Cowden, his wife Suzanne and their precious granddaughter Rachel, son Christopher Cowden and his fiancé Keisha Scott, and daughter Margaret (Terri) and her husband Christopher Bernier. Also, her nephew Mark and his wife Brenda West always have been a close part of the family, along with her cousin Joan and her husband David Short, and her cousin Gene Harris. Paige also had many special close and supportive friends, including Mary and Tom Fehrs, Judy and Dan Graves, Grace and Jerry Hoggard, Lorraine Melvin and Shirley and Mickey Casady.
    Before her passing, Paige stated that she would like everyone to know that she led a very productive and fulfilling life, and felt blessed for all the support and prayers of all the people she touched, and who touched her, during her life, filling it with irreplaceable memories.
    A graveside service will be conducted at 10:00 a.m., Thursday, November 19, 2015 in Chesapeake Memorial Gardens, 524 Cedar Road, Chesapeake. Dr. Bob Robinson will officiate. The family will receive friends from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m., Wednesday at Oman Funeral Home & Crematory, 653 Cedar Road, Chesapeake. Friends are invited to sign the online guest book at www.omanfh.com
    In lieu of flowers, memorial condolences may be made to the American Cancer Research Association at www.cancer.org. The family would like to thank all the doctors, nurses and medical teams who were always there to support Paige and her family during this very difficult time.

    Justin Landon Horne was born April 24, 1956 in Richmond, VA. He was raised in the family home on Jessup Road where the family moved when he was just 6 weeks old. His sister, Elizabeth "Betsy" Eunice Horne, joined the family 14 months later on July 2, 1957. Appropriately, Justin's father's fishing boat had 2- 18 horsepower outboard motors year models 1956 & 1957. The family frequently would go fishing (almost every weekend, weather permitting) in the 18' long WWII Army surplus 1/2 pontoon boat, that Justin still uses today.
    In 1974, Justin graduated from Meadowbrook High School in Chesterfield County, VA, where he was a member of the Math Club Society. He was accepted into both colleges he applied to: Virginia Tech, and Bluefield College. He graduated from Bluefield College in 1976, with an Associates of Science, and that is where he met his future wife, Martha Jean White. They both transferred to Madison College and there Justin earned a B.S. in Physics with a Math minor, and lacked only 1 credit of earning a double minor with high school education. They were in the first graduating class, 1978, of James Madison University, in Harrisonburg, VA. Justin & Martha married, shortly after graduation, on May 20, 1978. Justin & Martha moved to Wake Forest, NC. There, he studied for the Ministry at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. He graduated in 1981 with a dual degree of Masters of Divinity & Religious Education. Justin earned a Masters degree there, however; Martha earned her P.H.T. degree, "Putting Hubby Thru" as one of the Seminary's Assistant Circulation Librarians.
    After five years of marriage, Pamela Gayle Horne entered their family on May 25, 1983. Pamela suffered from birth trauma and as a result is severely retarded and experienced over 50,000 seizures in just the first 6 months of her life. Her Neurologist commented that in his now 35+ years of practice, she has had the most seizures of anyone he has known, who lived. She has been a blessing to all who have met her and is usually the center of attention in a gathering. Pamela graduated from Atlee High School in 2005, and continues to live with Martha and Justin.
    Justin served in several churches during his ministry in North Carolina and Virginia from 1979 to 1998. The most remote location was on Chincoteague Island, VA, 1983-87 and the longest tenure was 8 years in King George, VA, 1989-97. Justin moved back to Richmond to be close to and take care of his aging parents in 1997. As of 2006, Justin has completed his 8th year with Capital One Financial. Justin and Martha are now working on building their new home, which they designed, in the woods behind the family home on Jessup Rd. Justin purchased a used tractor in the spring of 2006 and plans to clear much of the property himself on his days off.

    Notes:

    Faye is a short petite little thing. Her cousin Tommy West was a strapping young man in the military (Rangers). One day, when Tommy was there on leave, Faye climbed on a desk and karate chopped (she saw how to do it on TV) Tommy on the neck as he came around a corner of a room at the house on Crenshaw. Tommy went down like an ox. Oh yes, and Faye ran and hid.

    Faye has raised Poms for years and used to show them.

    Faye by Faye Howard:
    WHO AM I?

    I am now a 64 year old woman and my motto is "Live Well, Love Much and Laugh Often."

    I worked for Department Of Corrections in General Services and assisted the Directors and their staff for almost 20 years before retiring. I want to share 3 things I felt extra proud to accomplish:

    I organized the DOC mini-pool, assigned units vehicles, and designed the sign-out sheets etc. which are still used today. I changed out copiers, increased not only staff productivity but provided copiers with the newest technology from the time it was given me to do until I left. The first 3 years I save the state over $77,000 a year for the 1st three years and even more each year after that.

    In my free time and at home, I designed and set-up the Distribution Accounting Voucher for computers and had it approved by the Department of Accounts for all DOC State Agencies. I also, made the Supply Room Order form on the computer. This started more forms that could be generated on the computer thus improving staff productivity and saving money for the state by removing typewriters and not having to use multi-part printed forms everybody hated.

    I want to share with you some of the most important things that have happened to me. First, I had two sons, Bryant who is 43 and married to Charlee and Tim who is 41 is married to Alice. I have 5 grandchildren, Mathew, Nicholas, Andrew, Emma, and Cameron, and I have 7 step great-grandchildren. I love my family very much.

    I always wanted to be an architect so I designed, drew the plans and helped build 3 of my homes that I lived in. The first was built in Cooper City, Florida; it was 3600 sq. ft. The second was built in Powhatan; it was 2072 sq, feet. The third was built in Chester; it was 2800 sq. ft. The teacher at J. Sergeant Reynolds Community College would bring his House Class to watch the construction of our house each week. A couple in the class offered us $30,000 more than what it cost us to build the house. Of course, I couldn't agree to sell it.

    On February 14th, 2003 I married my 2nd husband, John Pleasants and I am so happy I did.

    I raised and showed Pomeranians. I was 17 when I bought my first Pom and 18 in the show ring. My 3rd Pomeranian had 16 champions in one line and she was also, the great-great-great grandmother to the only Pomeranian that has won the Westminister Dog Show, his name was Great Elms Prince Charming II. This would not have happened without the help of the breeding of Maynard Wood and Ruth Beam and others. The last time I bred my Pom, 8 years ago, Furby sired the only 6 month old Pom, to my knowledge, that completed his championship in a 4 day show called the Virginia Beach Kennel Show in Virginia Beach. This would not have happened if Margaret had not let her female meet Furby. My kennel name is "Magic's Kennel" and my line spreads across the country. Our cousin, Robert "Bob" Goodrich was the one that supported me. He taught me what I needed to know about Pomeranians and was there for me anytime I needed him. We only have 4 Pomeranians now and they are April, Furby, Champion Lovebug, and Cuddles and we also, have 1 Cockatiel named Tweety.

    I am an animal lover; I feed the birds of all kinds even humming birds, squirrels, chipmunks, deer, fox and any other critter that comes in my yard to eat. I love flowers, plants and all God's beauty around me.

    Since my retirement John has kept me on the go. I am a member of the Virginia Alumni Association for the Blind in Staunton and I have been serving as the Hall of Fame Chairman for the last 5 years and was re-elected to start my 6th year, July 1st.

    I have been a member of the Lions Club for 4 years. Our motto is "WE SERVE". The Lion Clubs serve in 206 countries, in regions battered by natural disasters, in hospitals, schools, health programs, senior citizen centers, eyeglass recycling centers and provide eye exams and hearing aids and help people with Diabetes. We serve our communities we live in and we protect our planet and we do so much more.

    I have held the offices as Director - 4 years, Lion Tamer - 1 year, Secretary - 2 ½ years, and Zone Chairman 1 year. I will be 1st Vice President of Varina Lions Club and Zone Chairman in my District beginning July 1st .

    I have received the following Awards:

    The Proud Lion Award and Pin from the Lions of Virginia on 2/19/08. Only a few Lions have received this award.

    The Council of Governors for the State of Virginia Award on 11/23/09. The nominated Lions, who are usually nominated by a Past District Governor or the serving Governor, are voted on by the Council of Governors. Each Governor in their District pre-sent them in their term of office when they visit the Club the nominated Lion is in. Five or us received this award for 2009-2010 in our District 24-B.

    The International President's Letter of Commendation and his pin were presented to me by the International President Sid L. Scruggs III on August 28, 2010 at our Lions Fall Conference at the Luncheon Banquet. Usually only two are awarded each year to a District but this year four of us received them.

    Now, my goal is to be installed at the Lions International Convention in Hawaii as District Governor in 2015. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

    Update on Bryant -We got home at 2:00 a.m. this morning. We went to Bryant's house for the surprise party. Bryant was with the boys while Charlee got the house ready saying she wasn't hungry just take the boys out to eat. The surprise was of course you know on us. Besides being Bryant's Over the Hill 40th Birthday it was also their wedding anniversary. Bryant was at the Outback restaurant with the boys when he got chest pains and went to the bathroom throwing up three different times and when the chest pains got bad he called Charlee and told her to call 911 and for her to come get the boys. Her Mom was there too so they both drove so Pat could bring the boys home and Charlee could drive to the hospital behind the ambulance. Bryant is on the 3rd floor in the Cardiac Unit. He has lots of blockages and veins that are busted open - This is real serious. One blockage they put a stint in was 100% blocked the other 80%. Only 2 has been done so far - the reason the rest weren't done are because first they wanted to stabilize him. Secondly, they don't know if his body will reject the stints. Thirdly, his condition! They want to wait until Monday to put more stints in. Or if his body rejects these stints they will have to do Open Heart Surgery which may happen at any time. He could still have another heart attack and die now. Charlee says they need to put a lot of them in.
