Members of Sugar Hill Church plan their annual homecoming for this Sunday, Sept. 9. After church, they will enjoy their potluck dinner, followed by music and singing in the afternoon. All are welcome for Sunday school, church and afternoon events.

Jeannie patiently called the Fayetteville office and assessed for me by phone, then a few minutes later, I had the renewal.

When I left the office, there were already several outside waiting for the office to open again. I wondered if Jeannie ever got a lunch break as it was almost 1 p.m. then. Thanks to Jeannie for her dedication.

September is here, starting reunions, fairs, festivals, and it is honey, chicken, potato, mushroom, rice and biscuit month (anyone hungry?). It is also fall hat, coupon and piano month, happy cat month and library sign-up month. Grandparents’ Day is Sept. 9 and the first day of autumn is Sept. 22.

Happy birthday to Myndi Dozier, Barbara Goolsby, Earl Crudup, Disa Almeta, Scott Meyer, Roy Moorman and twins Eric and David Snarr.

Happy anniversary to Tubby and Charlotte Shannon on Sept. 8, J.W. and Darlene Cheatham on Sept. 10, and Dean and Misty Cheatham on Sept. 12. Happy years, all. Remember recycling on Monday, Sept. 10.
