February 11, 1979, Sunday Aunt Estelle wrote

Clear.   12 degrees.  We still have lots of snow.  Millard didn't go to church.  We had a real good church  service with Evangelist Bob Steele of Bristol as preacher.  Janice had to work early but got home in time for lunch.  I went back to church tonite.  This was Bud's last sermon as he moved off Tues. back to Kingsport. 


Footnote:   Millard is her husband.  Bristol is a nice town about 60 miles  Southeast of Deep Springs.  The state line runs down the middle of the main street in Bristol making the south side of the street in Tennessee and the North side in Virginia.  I marched down that street many times when I was in the high school band in Big Stone Gap.  Our band always participated in the Bristol Band Festival and we won a lot of trophies there.  The best time was had on the bus going to the festival.   Janice is her daughter.  Bud was their preacher - don't know his last name.  Seems she was not too happy with Bud's departure.
