Thanks Jean. Yes, God is good,and can do all things if we just believe , and
trust in him.
I wasn't very old when we were going to the Brush Arbor meetings, but
remember kinda scarcely what it was like. I remember well the spot where the
Brush Arbor was all grown up now. I had and Uncle Jack Gillihan (my dad's
brother) that was a Church Of Christ minister, and a good one he preached
from the bible and all the help the preachers got back then was a "pass the
hat" donation's. He has one dau still living , me from my dad's side and 2
girls from my Uncle Owen Gillihan side and we are the only own cousins left
in our William Riley and Ava Thompson Gillihan Jr family . I only had 2 bro
and they are both gone my parents died 1974, and 1981 my bro 1995, and 2001.
Thanks again.
June
