Dear Friends-Thank you all for the kind words, prayers, phone calls, and good thoughts you have been sending my way.  I have regained most of my mental and physical skills since my stroke last March.  Like I told Sid when he called me about a week after I got home from Savannah...I've NEVER been 100% mentally....so....anyway....  I still have moments of difficulty speaking at times, especially when I get tired.  Have pretty much recovered physically...just get a little tired quicker than usual.  But...God has really blessed me during my recovery process.  I realize things could have been much worse, and I'm so thankful God was watching over me on March 5th.  Everything was so "in order" when I arrived at the hospital in Douglas.  In less than an hour after my arrival, I was on a helicopter going to Savannah!! I know this was the working of God's hand!! I have had my follow-up appointment with Dr. LaFranchise in Savannah and he will see me again in August.  I have returned to work full-time and am getting stronger each day.  When something like this happens...you take an inventory of your life.  Trust me, some things that use to worry me...I've had to let go of...and the people that I love have taken priority in my life.  My parents, children, spouse & friends are very special to me and I try to take time to let them know how important they are in my life.  You all are very special to me and I love you!  Thank you again for your love and concern for me. I'm reminded of a song I have sang many times during my life: Never failed me yet...never failed me yet...Jesus' love has never failed me yet...there've been times I could not see....but He's been faithful to me....Jesus' love has never failed me yet!

Bless you & love to all- Amy

May God Bless You All !!!!

Shirley Rose Neugent (Glisson)

Charlton,  I hope I speak for the rest of our classmates when I say that we refuse to be old geezers!  50 is the new 30, right?  Please!? 

Amy Tanner

I totally agree with Shirley Rose! It's all in how young you feel! I think raising teenagers right now is one thing that keeps us young. I know my girls (two of them 13, and the baby is 11) think I've lost my mind most of the time! They are NOT allowed to do most of the things their friends are doing right now and the call me "Granny" sometimes to get my blood pressure up...they are wonderful children, (don't tell them I called them that) but this is the thing: try making sure the values in life you learned as a child are instilled in two 13-year-olds and one 11-year-old. It will keep you busy...therefore younger! There is NEVER a dull moment at our house! Enough about "The Young (me) and The Restless (my children)...hope everyone had a nice Christmas holiday and I pray that 2011 will bring you nothing but joy, love & peace to your heart! Love to all-Amy

Charlton Gillis

Well......Since all my children are grown and moved out of the house, and my wife did such a great job raising them, to keep her from feeling empty, I refuse to get older than about 25. I will let her be the grown up. Sometime she pretends not to like it but i know better. She knows its for her own good.

Amy Tanner

Charlton...every good woman needs a "child" to take care of, and it sounds like Stacey still has one at home!  Love ya!

Charlton Gillis

Is it just me? Or are you Chicks a little more sensitive than us men/boys?

Carl Wood

  Dear Amy you said that they were some dummies left in the old school,but you will be glad to know I did get out in time. But thanks for worring! But you are right it is sad because there are lots and lots of memories torn down with those buildings. I wrote our MAYOR and OBAMBA but it didn"t do any good. They just told me that I was acting like a protestor from the sixties!! I told them that I was and always would be!!!I write this response with LOVE.... C.W.W.

Carl Wood

P.S. RAY DOUGLAS IS A WHIMP and PUNK!!!! You can tell him that Carl W. Wood said it and means it . What can he do???? Nothing but take it and like it !!!! OR he might be willing to take it up with me MAN on punk!!!! Bring it !!!! That was our school for all I know he can"t even read....
