SHS Sweethearts - 02
Here
are Photos of SHS Sweethearts of 1956 in attendance
at Thursday, April 19, 2007 luncheon at the Southland Restaurant in
Sheffield...and... our number of attendees is increasing. Sandra
Foreman Morris' granddaughter Brooke Maupin, age 10,was a guest.
New to our monthly gathering are classmates Bobbie Cornett Caudill and
Nancy Stewart King both living in the Shoals area...and we were surprised
with a special visit from classmate Sara Tidwell Mardis of Springdale,
Arkansas, who is visiting in the Shoals area. We numbered 14 and are
learning...the more, the merrier.
'Laughter is GOOD for the heart and soul.'

The right (kitchenside) half of the table with Sara Tidwell Mardis (out of town visitor) and Nancy King Stewart & Bobbie Cornett Caudill (new to the Sweetheart group).
This one's a bit fuzzy, but I included it because it was the only one that showed Louise Yarbrough Holland--the one seated to Barbara Laughlin South's right
Here is today's offering of photos taken at SHS Sweethearts luncheon held Thursday, May 17 at the Southland. Margie Gargis joined us this time--she attends occasionally. The man in two of the photos was introduced as Joe Lee McCoy, a 1950 SHS graduate, who stopped in our meeting area to say hello to a couple of the ladies he knows.
Lots of sharing of new great grandbabies' photos and plans for summertime. Patsy Bell Congleton gifted each of us with a copy of a poem, 'The World of Sandra Dee' (which you have included in your SHS web-site, BTW ) . . . . . . . . and we talked and reminisced about OUR Fabulous Fifties in Sheffield.
The SHS Sweetheart's group is making a JOYFUL noise to the world !

Well, the SHS Sweethearts did bend their "Women Only" rule a bit to include a photo of Joe Lee McCoy, SHS Class of 1950. But, be assured that he was table-hopping to greet several of his lady friend acquaintances AND NOT having lunch with them
The photo below is today's offering from the monthly Sweetheart's luncheon, June 21, 2007.
Standing from left to right: Linda, Mary Lynn Blair Freeman, Sandra Foreman Morris, Joyce Horton Johnson, Zecora Wilcutt Sanders. Seated, left to right: Nancy Stewart King, Louis Yarbrough Holland, Joanne Marsh Gargis, Barbara Laughlin South, Mary Ann Byars Lenz and granddaughter Livia Lenz, eleven years of age from Muscle Shoals.
Much laughter mixed with tears of happy time...Sandra Morris told of her 'brief walk' down into the Grand Canyon ( She said Nay ! to a mule ride, which is another story....) and Mary Ann Lenz got our attention with true stories of her learning to be wary and 'heads up' when visiting the Wild West.
Ed. Note: Don't you think this is the best photo of our Sweethearts yet?
