It was standing room only as Mark was well known throughout the community. The church prepared to feed the family after the service. I prepared a 7-layer salad, and corn casserole; Marcella prepared another 7-layer salad, and Gary prepared lemon sherbet pudding bars. I would estimated that approximately 90 people ate after the service. Mark C. smoked six briskets; two restaurants sent mashed potatoes and corn, and macaroni/cheese. There was plenty of food.
Yesterday our group traveled to Salineno to the bird sanctuary. There were several varieties of colorful birds.

| From Roma TX bluffs, looking across the Rio Grande River, at a "Red-Shouldered Hawk" We just returned from a musical concert at a nearby RV Park. Performing was 'Sherwin Linton and wife Pam Linton"; Sherwin has been performing since the 1950's, and still does a good show. There were tributes to Johnny Cash, Buddy Holly, and Chuck Berry as well as many other songs. |
