Come to the Talala Fairview Cemetery and support the Talala Cemetery Association. They have T-shirts, pies, and cookies for sale to help support the Association. I bought a navy blue T-shirt with the 250th happy birthday America on it.

The weights and two glass displays were donated by Kathy Williams. The floor in the military room is being repaired and we could gladly use some donations.

We plan on having a Gala in August to promote the museum and accept donations to help restore and maintain the building.

I plan on taking photos of every brick that's around the eagle. So that way everyone can see their name. I will add them to a special album so that they're easier to locate.

On today's date in 1502 Christopher Columbus departed Spain on his fourth and final voyage to the New World which would eventually become the United States of America. How far back can you trace your ancestors when they arrived in America? Some of mine go way back, but more recently my great grandmother came from Bohemia and around 1906.

Happy Mother's Day to everyone who's a mother. We value our mothers dearly and we always appreciate what they've done for us. I know that I appreciated my mother when she was alive for everything she did for our family.
