Comments: I was sorry to read about the passing of Henry-he will be missed. I want to report that Warriors Weekend in Port O'Connor went off without a hitch this past weekend. Over 350 wounded soldiers from all across the country we treated with a weekend of celebration and fishing. We took three young men fishing and one of them commented that he had never felt such an outpouring of gratitude and pride. Port O'Connor is a special and very patriotic place. The community is small, mostly lower income and nearly every family has had a death or injury to a family member or someone they know in either Iraq or Afghanistan. Because of this, the wounded soldiers have a very special place in their hearts. I feel blessed to have participated the past 3 years.

Comments: Claudia, I sent you a note on FB. I have some photos you might want
Comments: Hello Everyone! I just stopped by and noticed much conversation about the Golden Debs. I am in the process of writing a history from those Golden Years...much about the Debs. I have contacts with those from the early years and many great photos which will be included. I would like to take it all the way through 1966, Miss Thomas' last year. I do not have a group photo of the following groups; 1963, 64, 65 and 66. Nor do I have a list of each year's senior Debs. If I cannot get a group photo, I would like to at least have a photo of the officers from each of those years. If you can help me with this, please email the information to thesunshinerose@yahoo.com My project is coming along nicely and I will let you know when I publish it to the internet! Thank you ladies for any help you can offer. Those lists and photos will be very valuable to the accuracy of what I am doing! Hugs! Claudia 
Comments: Will do Charlotte.. I think Kellie is very absorbed right now.. she'll get back to me later...If not I'll chase her down..she's on Facebook..so I can find her there or email..now... 
Comments: Ginger, thank you for your thoughtfulness in posting about our high school class mate. It is so sad to learn of Henry's death. Claudia is in Assisted Living?. Do you know her condition? If you find out that information would you please let us know by coming back here and posting? We would appreciate that very much.
Comments: Henry's sister Mary Coomes-Marsh, address: 10404 Holly Creek Road, Terrell, Tx 75160. I am sure she would appreciate cards regarding Henry. He will be surely missed. Please post the services if anyone obtains this information. Thank you.
Comments: Kellie has emailed me 2-3 times now. I don't know what happened to my original email to her.. I had found Claudia about a year ago and she emailed me back..then I didn't hear from her anymore.. Kellie told me that Claudia is in an 'assisted living' place, and that's why I have not heard from her.. I believe Kellie has a daughter..too..There's one grandchild..I think.. Kellie's the one that is dealing with all this.. I think Mary Coomes is still around..anyone have contact with her..? Ginger Hearn
Comments: How very sad to learn about Henry Coomes' passing, just as I was about to post information about the upcoming SOC luncheon in June. Henry was one of our leaders, and I know he will be missed dearly by his friends and family.
Comments:
Your Location: McKinney, TX Comments: I am the daughter of Claudia Cash and Henry Coomes. I happened across your blog doing some research a couple of weeks back. I tried to reach out to Ginger Hearn, but I don't think she received my email. I noticed that you guys were concerned and wanting the details of Dad's condition. Dad passed away yesterday. He has courageously fought serious heart problems since the late nineties and two years ago was diagnosed with bladder cancer. Seven weeks ago, Dad's doctors told us that his only chance for survival was to install a heart pump (LVAD) which would bridge him through the process of determining if he were eligibile for a transplant. The surgery was risky, but it had to be done. If it had worked, he could have played golf and resumed a normal life. He had the surgery three weeks ago, and never recovered. His circulation was poor and other vital organs did not respond with the pump. I know he loved his classmates at SOC. He spoke fondly of his school friends, and many of you still had a close bond. We will all miss him very much.
Comments: Ginger, I just read the Adamson website I am sorry that Henry had heart trouble and cancer. I never knew that he and Claudia Cash had a child together. Did their daughter Kelly graduate from Adamson? Since both her parents graduated from SOC, what is the connection to Adamson.? My condolences to Henry's family.
Comments: Correction: Kellie Coomes posted today. Henry died yesterday..
Comments: I'm going against my decision not to post on this site.. Kellie Coomes had emailed me...weeks back..I emailed her, but apparently she never got the email...! She posted on www.whadamson63 this morning.. Go there and read her post.. Henry Coomes died this morning.. He had indeed had heart trouble..Had some kind of pump..put in, weeks ago, but he was also diagnosed with bladder cancer.. I'm so sorry to hear this.. Loved Henry, as a friend from 'way back' at Boude Storey..I wore his jacket some and it hung down to my calves...! You can email Kellie from the Adamson site...too. I emailed her and then read all the post... I've got to email her again... So sorry, we have lost Henry Coomes.... Ginger Hearn
Comments: Michael and Charlotte, I am so sorry for your friends. Horses don't know the damage they can do by their sheer size. I learned that my Facebook account has been hacked and my password changed, so I couldn't post my farewell on there. I hope everyone will un-friend me just to be safe. The techs at MicroCenter told me my computer crash could have been caused by trojans picked up by clicking links in Facebook, so it's good-bye to them. It was fun. There's going to be a SOC luncheon soon, so I'll post any info I get. The info is on FB.
Comments: Michael, this is horrible news...I know the surprising mishaps with horse very well. about 5 years ago my friend's 2 year old grand son crawl under a fence...spooked a horse and was stomped to death in a second I am so sorry and will pray for this family!
Comments: I want to ask our friends on the guestbook to pray for a dear christian friend. Kanin Asay is a young bullrider who loves the Lord and lives the life. His Dad and Mother have a ranch in Wyoming. Today his Mother was kicked in the head by one of her horses. She did not survive her injuries. I can't begin to tell you what a wonderful christian family Kanin comes from. Sometimes things happen and we simply cannot understand why. Please call Kanin Asay's name in prayer.
Comments: Ken, that dog has a great face. The guy who did this has some hilarious cat videos, too.
Comments: Poor pooch. http://youtu.be/nGeKSiCQkPw
Comments: Oh, I am so sorry Michael. That would just break my heart if that happen to any of my cow-girls!! I've heard of it happening all too often. The cows also tend to stand under trees when it storms and the lightening will strike the tree and get the cows too. What a tragedy for your cowboy friend too. I hope the horse was insured...ours are. When it rains we bring our horses in, but they are stable horses not pasture horses are and only out in paddocks for a few hours a day for romping, sunshine and green grass(no green grass this year) otherwise they are fed twice a day and exercised everyday. Insured or not, someone would have to put me down too if any one of them were killed by lightening.
Comments: Not to change the subject...oh alright to change the subject. When the last storm that came through Chico lightening struck two of our cows, both springers (pregnant) it wasn't a pretty site. Clay told me Stace Smith Pro rodeo contractor had lightening strike one of his bucking horses. 20,000 dollar horse gone.
Comments: I have an address book with the keys written in it, in addition to being written in Sharpie on the installation CDs if I have them. I spent a lot of time today trying to decipher my handwriting -- is that a 5 or an S, that sort of thing. Photoshop wanted not only the current key, but a prior one as well. I resolve to write better! Now I need to take my data backup remote hard drive to MicroCenter and get it checked for malware before I load something bad back onto this computer. When exactly was it that we all had to learn how to be computer geeks?
Comments: Good plan, but a lot of my software was downloaded and I never had a CD. I do usually write the key on a CD when I have one. Some of the keys are stored in a Password Safe file, but guess what, it's on the same PC. I finally got it working again and got a couple of user names and passwords. Like I said, life would be so boring with a Mac!
Comments: Barry, I know exactly what you mean about finding those "Keys" and I'm not talking about house keys! When that happened to us I swore never agn wd I be looking for a key. Now, when I get a new program with a key printed on the back of the paper sleeve, using a fine point permanent marker, I carefully write the key directly on the CD. I went back & did all the apps we have & I never worry abt loosing a key agn! If you can find the CD. . . you will have the key! 
Comments: Having a Mac would get so boring. Our PC at home, that has all our photos and Joan's school work, went belly up on Saturday. I am in the process of recovering. I had to reinstall XP and am slowly installing one program at a time. I have Word working, so Joan is happy. I have Quicken working so everyone that I pay on-line will be happy. It really tests my memory when the software asks for the "key" that I used when I installed it many years ago. "Let's see now, which small scrap of paper did I write that on?" I do have an online backup service, so everything is stored safely offsite. It backs up every night. My goal is to install one program a day and I should be finished in Spring 2012........ Leaving tomorrow for Warriors Weekend, so I will get a few days behind on my installations.
Comments: After this experience, a Mac is sounding pretty good to me!
Comments: Mac, anyone?
Comments: Sharon, drag your computer over to Micro Center on Spring Valley. They fixed mine for $60. I reinstalled everything today, upgraded my antivirus software, and swore off Facebook and clicking on anything inside an e-mail. Hope this works!! |
