Dear Friends & Family. One month. Nadine went to the Lord one month ago today. In some ways it doesn't seem possible; in other ways, it seems much longer. In all ways we miss her deeply.

We're going to have dinner with Dad this evening and he was very excited when I called and invited us over. :) He's getting settled in his new apartament and is doing as well as can be expected. He led Bible study this afternoon for the Sister that is in charge of the Thursday study.

Early this fall we had planned to drive to Florida for Christmas to visit our daughter and her family (that includes two grandchildren we haven't seen for over two years), but we will go at a later time. Jim loves to play in the ocean anyway, so Spring or Summer will be a good time. Since we're going to be in town, Dad arranged to have us do a program at the Care Center on Christmas Eve, 3pm. We're honored and pray that "The Innkeeper's Wife" will be a blessing and Jesus Christ will be glorified. We'll also be presenting it at First Baptist Church's Christmas Eve service at 6pm. That presentation will be in memory of our Mother's who will be "watching from Heaven:" Jean Avanell Whatley Clark; Gertrude Lorella Klusmeyer Anderson & Nadine Jones Adkisson Dymond Clark.

God bless you all as you prepare to celebrate His birth!

Love, Linda
