Your help and stories are needed!

The following is a reprint from January 25, 2007

One of our team members, Irvin Van Patten, sends out monthly birthday reminders, etc., to everyone he can find. Of late, to this monthly mailing, he’s appended the following, which is worth your consideration:

Please consider the following: If you have a story, a remember-when incident, the Searcy YesterYear Blog would be interested reading about it. Naturally, we are attempting to record some of our classmates’ history before Dementia or Alzheimer kicks in and you don't remember where the bathroom is located. Contact information for Searcyyesteryear is located below my signature block. I said it this way in case you are beginning to notice some symptoms.

Respectfully,
