Cloudy I walked over thru the fields to Mrs. Davis, come back & walked up to Jennings house. Reba come for me and we attended the youth rally at our church. There was 365 present. at least 165 had to leave because of no room. Only about 70 come in to eat We had as much to take back as we fed out.
At the end of the month in her journal there is a page called "Special Data". This is what she wrote at the end of the month of March, 1979: Millard was in hospital at Pennington with a virus from April 15 to April 22. Then, in another paragraph, she wrote: Feb. 6, 1979. Jennings & Elizabeth went to Florida to join Lucille & Ralph, Branson and Opal and Cora. Elizabeth was sick when she left and about the middle of Feb. she had a stroke and was in the hospital a long time. Then later had trouble with heart rhythm. They got home March 7. Cora come for 2 weeks. Elizabeth hasn't been at all well here in May.
Footnote by Pat: Mrs. Davis is a neighbor. Jennings was her brother and Reba was her sister-in-law. Elizabeth was Jennings' wife. Lucille was her sister( Lucille Reasor Zubke) and Ralph was Lucille's husband (Ralph Zubke). They lived in Goodrich, Michigan - Ralph worked for Pontiac Motor Co. Branson and Opal and Cora were relatives of Elizabeth. They all lived in Flint, Michigan. Jennings lived in Flint and worked for Chevrolet. After he retired, they moved back to Virginia and lived on the farm where he was raised.
