First, this from this morning's paper:

Donnie Lee Shands
Donnie Lee Shands, well-known Searcy resident, died Wednesday, April 25, 2007. He was 66 years of age.

Now, on a somewhat more cheerful note, Mary Kathryn Van Patten James (better know through most of her adulthood as Mary Kay) has put her name on the Retirement List at Searcy's First Security Bank, effective May 17th. She thus Suzy Hoffman Boyette on the put-your-feet-up-and-relax-for-while brigade.

This is Mary Kay (on the left) with her colleague, Ann Snow, taken this last Tuesday.
