Sunday 1981 Fair very cold. Janice & Wendi at home. We stayed in all evening. To church. Jack Blair took Maebird to Dayton today. Emmitt Blair went to Harlan Hospital.
Footnote: Janice is her daughter and Wendi is her granddaughter. Maebird Blair is her neighbor who has had surgery. Jack Blair is Maebird's son, I am guessing. Dayton, Ohio is a town about 300 miles away from Deep Springs. It is a long drive for someone who is sick. I can't imagine what Maebird must have been feeling - so sick and having to leave her home and community - must have been really hard for her. She was a quiet woman as I remember so she probably didn't complain. I believe that Jake Blair was Maebird's husband and he must have already passed away. Emmitt Blair was Jake's brother, I am guessing here.
