August 8, 1963 The Frances Hubbard Diaries


August 8, 1963
Thursday, lovely day,  70’s.  I finished the beef and went to the missionary meeting at Hersey's in pm.  Sue and I with Madelyn.   Carol was at Lindseys for the day.  We went to prayer meeting at night.
Comment:  Madelyn was Madelyn Blakesley, married to Lyle Blakesley who owned a farm about a mile and a half away on Blakesley Road.  Lyle was the Uncle to My Uncle Rudy Blakesley.  We used to buy eggs from them about once a week or so.  Lyle was kinda bunged up and limped a lot when he walked, not sure what happened to him.  They were both very nice and very devout Baptists.  Here is a picture of  Madelyn in 1981 at the 150th anniversary of the Flat Creek Baptist Church..she is on the right....

You're always young in your mind it is said, No matter the face in the mirror, That you see with surprise then say to yourself, "What is that old man doing here?"
