I WOULD LIKE to take this opportunity to thank my many friends for the cards, flowers, prayers and telephone calls I received while I was a patient at Boone County Hospital, Columbia; alsd a special thanks to my family for helping out at home. I would like to express a very spe* clal thanks and appreciation to Rev. and Mrs. Gant, and Mrs. Marjorie Murrain for their visit while I was in the hospital. The love and concern of my family and friends will never be forgotten. May God richly bless you all. Helen Matkins. '
