Waylon and Holly Dukes took their two children, Haven Rose and Waylon Jr., to Cossar State Park Saturday for a trunk-or-treat event. Haven Rose had a good time and met up with sweet little Jolee Robinson, daughter of John Adam and Blake Robinson. Baby Waylon slept through most of the time, but next year he will be old enough to enjoy.
While Sheryn McCannon Goode and daughter Sunshine Huff were on vacation in Galveston, Texas, Sheryn had a heart attack. She was able to have her procedure and two stents placed. After discussing with doctors, they will try to fix the other two blockages. She is back in Tillatoba now but went Monday morning to see her doctor in Memphis. Please keep her in your prayers! This was very difficult being so far from home. Your calls, text and prayers are appreciated.
Deborah McCool says they haven’t done anything lately. She did say her two granddaughters, Hannah and Caitlyn Beavers, went to Biloxi for Cruisin’ the Coast car show for a few days. They went with Hannah’s boyfriend and his family. They said they had a wonderful time.
Martha Box says the fall colors about town are spectacular and a real confirmation of God’s artistic creations in this world! She said the knee of her baby, Ginger, popped and she is in severe pain, asking us all to pray for her. They expected to know more about treatment after MRI results Monday. “Hard to keep Martha Jr. down and not up working,” Martha said.
Martha reported great worship at Pine Grove Baptist Church Sunday featuring pastor appreciation with soul-touching music, shared love and the Word! She said all present must have felt the Holy Spirit as much as she did, adding, “It is well with my soul.” She said the cooking was so good, too!
My BFF, Susan Bell, had shoulder surgery recently and is in therapy. She is doing pretty good but just a little sore. To tell the truth, I think she overdid it just a little!
David and I enjoyed our company this week, including grandson Junior Dukes; Bobby Ray Jackson; Brad, Frankie and Bradley Holliday; and daughter Donna. Y’all come back, you hear!
Happy 46th anniversary to Kelly and Ping Pong Paris! Just a little advice, Ping, a pearl is recommended. It could mean a pearl-colored car, I guess.

Jiffy Casserole:
1 box Jiffy corn muffin mix
1 cup sour cream
1 can creamed corn
1 cup canned or frozen sweet corn (I use frozen)
1 stick melted butter
1/2 tablespoon sugar
Mix together. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Oil skillet and get it hot, then add mixture to a large cast iron skillet. Cook 40 to 50 minutes. (Add in jalapeños, bacon, whatever suits your fancy!) This will be crispy outside and creamy in.
Thought for the day: “Be like a postage stamp. Stick to a thing till you get there.
