We remember fondly the welcome to Clay City we received from Kathryn and Willard when we moved down from Canada...I was raised in Illinois, (and used to it!) but Rod was so pleased by their special southern hospitality. They were great landlords, and we had meals and enjoyed games around their table many times. We're praying for God to bring warm memories to each of your minds as you navigate through these difficult days.
