The gathering at the Frymire cross for Easter Sunrise service did not get to see the sun rise because of the cloud cover but that didn’t dampen their spirits. Pastor Tanis led the assembled in song and worship. Afterwards all enjoyed good food and fellowship.

Don and Gayle Diltz have returned from a 5600-mile trip down south. First they stopped in Prescott, Arizona to visit Don’s sister and do some repair work to her home, then it was on to Albuquerque, Mew Mexico to visit a friend of Gayle’s. Next stop was Howe, Texas to see Don’s older brother. They were now traveling just one day ahead of the rash of tornadoes that hit the area. They stopped at Kingston, Oklahoma to see Don’s twin brother and then on to Owasso, Oklahoma to Don’s sister’s home where they helped plan Don’s mother’s 89th birthday, a surprise party. Don’s mom lives in Collinsville, Oklahoma, just up the road from his sister. Next on the agenda was Mississippi to see their daughter Korinne and her new husband, Brian. Next stop was New Orleans where they played tourist and ate Po Boys. Then it was on to Pensacola, Florida, where they laid on the beach. On the return trip they went to the Alamo and did the River Walk in San Antonio, Texas then on to Palm Springs then home. It was a long trip but they got to see all the relatives.
