FIRST FRIENDS

First Friends came to order at the home of Delores Toon, who was our hostess for May along with Polly Dunlap. We acknowledged our May birthdays and had our announcements and news. There are still a few Lake Cherokee First Friends Cookbooks available, at $10.00 a piece you can’t go wrong. Contact Carolyn Matter at 903-643-3969, she’ll be happy to sell you one or two. We also discussed what to do with the extra money that was accumulated from the sale of the cookbooks, as in dividing it among a number of charities, your input would be appreciated. Please call Carolyn Matter, or Carol Staiti 903-643-8384 with your suggestions.

Wilena Grigsby

Our speaker this month was a close friend of Delores’, Wilena Grigsby, who has property on the lake not far from the Toon’s. Wilena was born in Troop and has lived in Longview and Dallas, her husband is a dentist. She shared with us a few funny stories from her past and sang songs for us from Patsy Cline, Ann Murray, Karen Carpenter, Patty Page and Helen Reddy. Thank you so much Wilena. First Friends will be taking off the summer, but will return September 16^th, when Joann McCranie, Elaine Pinkerton and Dorothy Blackwell will be our hostesses. We hope to see you there.

Door prize winners, Joan Porter, Linda McKenzie and Elyse McCosky
