Karen Hogue McClaran writes to let
us know that her father has moved into the Veteran's Center in Norman,
OK. His progressive neurological disorder
has reached the point of needing 24 hour a day care and family could no longer
care for him. She asks for family members to take a moment to write him a note
of encouragement. He is having an extremely difficult time leaving his home of
many years. Write him at: Veteran's Center - Norman Division; ATTN: Calvin
Hogue - Rm. F-108; 1776 E. Robinson St.; Norman,
OK 73071-7442.

Myrtle Hjorten recently renewed
memberships for her children and herself. She mentioned that Mel had a heart
attack, but is doing better now. She misses coming to the reunions.

David Herd had Vada F. Fletcher’s
last newsletter returned. The address we had was: 153
Sierra Vista Dr, Redlands, CA
92373. Does anyone know if she
has moved or passed away? Ed Stout writes, “That was the last address I used to
contact her. She was born in 1907 so, sad to say, I'm afraid she has passed
away although I can't imagine that some of her family were not in touch with me
at the time. She and Addy Brewster were among the
descendants of John Fulbright of Dry Glaize featured
in the last news. They had moved out west, and settled in Redlands,
Calif., which is just north of where we
live. We were well acquainted -- they were the nicest kind of people, and Vada always was one of the very best.”

I have received several communications recently from that
finest of Christian gentlemen, Dr. Arthur Fulbright (who is also my cousin). He
just turned 80 earlier this month, and I plan on working some of the material
he sent into an article for the next newsletter. Happy Birthday, Arthur!
