I
would like for you to meet Mr. and Mrs. Corbett Holt who have retired
and recently moved to their new home at
605 Barkley Drive.
In
a way Mrs. Holt, Faye, is moving back home. She is the daughter of the
late Mr. and Mrs. Alec Lee of the Indian Gap community, where she
attended and finished school. She is the sister of Floyd Lee and Mrs.
Elma Colwell, both of
Hamilton
.
Mr.
Holt is a native of
Arkansas
, but was working in
San Angelo
when he met and Married Faye in 1936. Shortly afterwards, he was
employed by the Santa Fe Railway in the Special Service Department. This
work moved them around some, and they have lived in
Albuquerque
, Belen and
Raton
,
New Mexico
, as well as La Junta,
Colorado.
During
our visit with them we learned that they were members of a church in
Albuquerque
and my brother was their pastor.
Mr.
Holt retired from the
Santa Fe
in 1972 and they moved to northeastern
Oklahoma
. He had lived in that section as a young man, and there are many lakes
and fishing places, but last year they decided to move back to
Hamilton
.
Hope
you can meet this fine couple soon.
