Comments: I missed seeing everyone yesterday at the party. I know you all had a wonderful time. It was my mom's 99th birthday and Steve didn't feel well at all, so I thought it better to stay home. Love you all. Sharon

Comments: Just got our invite thru Facebook for the Christmas event. Looking forward to seeing old friends ... and Jack Morrison.
Comments: Yes, Harriett, it is always on the first Sunday in December. It will be December 3rd at 1:00 at my house.
Comments: Peaches, are you having another SOC Christmas luncheon this year?
Comments: Please donate what ever you can. Every little bit adds up. Something like this could happen to any of us. Sharlene is such a beautiful person inside and out. Let's support her!
Comments: This is the link for Sharlene and Jack Alexander. They have lost everything in the fire. The fire spared their garage what're Sharlene had somer off season clothing, but everything else is gone. I can't imagine what they are going through. https://www.gofundme.com/fire-recovery-for-the-alexanders
Comments: Lynell, that is devasting for Sharlene! As a class, please, those than can please contribute to the Go Fund for them. Lynell, let us know know if we can do anything else for her.
Comments: sorry, Lynell, I reread your post and it was just 4 hours ago.
Comments: Lynell, did you find out the information for the Go Fund for Sharlene.
Comments: Lynell, did you find out the information for the Go Fund for Sharlene.
Comments: I hope everyone's loved ones in California are all safe. Our friend and classmate Sharlene Houghtaling Alexander has lost everything to the fire. She, her husband Jack and their cat named Monkey are safe, but they have lost all their worldly possessions. A friend was setting up a GoFundMe page for them. I will post it as soon as I know the name of it. What a heartbreak, but the good news is they are okay.
Comments: The former guestbook. http://soc63.com/images/SOC63_Guestbook.pdf
Comments: I have family that are completely encircled by the fires in California and cannot evacuate, they are in Oroville. Other family in Fair Oaks. Has anyone heard if Mike Richmond is ok. I knew he sold his winery in Napa/Sonora, knew he still lived in the area. Just wondering.
Comments: Our house in Port O'Connor only lost a downspout and part of a gutter. We were very blessed. Less than 20 miles south, in Seadrift, it was a different story. Lots of damage. POC had a lot of fences down, boat sheds destroyed, roofs damaged and a couple of trailer parks with a lot of damaged trailers. Power was out a week. We only had a 4' storm surge which was a lot less than the 12' predicted. Sunday Beach out on Matagorda Island is now Sunday Pass. Storm completely washed away beach and made another entrance to Matagorda Bay.
Comments: I am concerned about SOCites in fire and flood areas. I hope all are well and up to handling whatever has been thrown at them. Life can be too hard.
Comments: To Phyllis and Sharon, Happy Belated Birthdays. You both share your day with my daughter and Beverly Duvall Haas. I think I should start a backwards birthday, each year we are age we were the year before until we reach 21.  David Leverett had his birthday on September 12th, along with my niece. Johnny Maddox is next on the 15th. Happy Birthday to all you September kiddos, including Pat Vessels and Barbara Moffett who share the same date as well on the 8th.
Comments: I was talking to a colleague in Tampa Florida this morning. She said that a lot of her coworkers were without power, but that -- otherwise -- they felt like they had "dodged a bullet."
Comments: Steve's brother and his family live in Baytown. Thankfully, they weren't flooded, but it was impossible to get to work. The shop where he works had a couple of feet of water but they have managed to get it cleaned up and ready. Let's pray for everyone in the path of Irma.
Comments: Happy Belated Birthday to you, too, Sharon. With all the Hurricane concerns, it totally slipped up on me this year. Hope you had a good one and that you and yours are safe and dry.
Comments: Phyllis, Happy Belated Birthday!
Comments: As far as I know, our South Texas SOCites are all high and dry. . I saw in today's Dallas Morning News that Mr. Don Presley has passed away. He taught eighth grade English at Boude Storey.
Comments: I spoke to John earlier in the week and he said they were not having any problems. Of course, they have had more rain. I got a text message from my cousin, Jan , and she said they were fine. I have a niece in Mason and she said they could take care of any cattle that are flooded. I plan to go back to Port O'Connor next week. Got a message from the Improvement District today that they have lifted the "Boil water" requirement and all the toilets are now flushing. In looking at security cameras, it appears that there might be a little water in the garage. The cameras have been off until today.
Comments: Has anyone heard if Charlotte Anders land was flooded and/or any other SOCITES in the Houston area, i.e. John Southworth, etc...?
Comments: Barry, they just released the water from the Conroe dam, and Gary said it would be heading towards Houston and South. Just what they need, more water. Praying for our SOC friends and we have family in the Houston and Katy areas.
Comments: As some of you know, we have a vacation house in Port O'Connor. I went down last Thurs to board up windows and empty fridge and freezer. I tried to drive back Thurs but traffic was so bad and it was raining so I spent the night in Hallettsville. So far, we have been blessed and had very little damage. The water, electricity, sewer and cell service are all off and it might be weeks/months until all are restored. Our only concern is all the water north of us that needs to find its way south. The Guadalupe and San Antonio rivers are predicted to have record flooding. The Colorado has flooded LaGrange. Keep South Texas in your prayers.
Comments: Gary talked with Johnny and Kathy Maddox in Conroe, and they are doing fine. Apparently Lake Livingston is on the other side of them where their son lives. The son cannot get out of his community as the gated area is under 3 feet of water and they are stuck until it recedes. His son Mark wants to get to his office ASAP due to all the calls they will be having due to the damages. Wondering how John Southworth and Dru are doing. I have seen the cattle and left behind pets having a hard time through the flooding. Prayers are ongoing. Even the cruise ships cannot dock at Galveston due to the water on the highways heading into Houston. A big mess.
Comments: Any of our classmates in south Texas, especially Houston, Spring, etc. let us know if you are safe as soon as you can. I can't even imagine my house flooding. Came close years ago in Paris, TX and never want to go through it again.
Comments: I guess -- technically -- I'm a lurker, as I check the site far more often than I post. But, it seems I just don't have that much worthwhile to contribute. The flooding down at the Coast is just awful, though. Pray for Texas! |
