Out of the past~We were gifted a campaign poster from 1957 by Tina and Doyle Turner! The poster read as follows~For Sheriff-VOTE FOR GEORGE W. FELTY A Man Who Has The ABILITY, NERVE and COURAGE To Work Day and Night To Stop the Crime Wave that is Threating Jackson County. Republican Primary May 28, 1957.
Though most of us don't remember George being the sheriff or being part owner in the theatre that once graced Sand Gap, Kentucky. A lot of people still remember him in his later years, driving at very low rates of speed through Jackson County. Sure folks would be a little upset if they got behind him in traffic, but otherwise we have never heard an ill word spoke of him. Justin has memories of him giving him candy and quarters as a child. Jason remembers traveling to McKee with his grandpa after George got his license revoked and his papaw picking him up and taking him to Mckee. George alway dressed sharp and greeted folks with a smile.
The week this episode was recorded, Jackson County lost a lady who was loved by all who knew her, Mrs. Judy Anderson. She had taught Spanish at Jackson County High School for a number of years and left a positive impact on a lot of children. We send prayers for peace and comfort to all who are troubled by her passing.
Healthy Habits~Justin has been lifting weights and pushing muscles to the limits. Jason and Amy have been getting ready for planting season.
The guys go on to talk about several other things including the Eclipse taking place on April 8th.
We thank God for all the folks who leave a positive impact on other people!
We thank You for listening! We thank our sponsors-The Jackson County Sun, WWAG Wagon Country, The Jackson County Extension Office, Spokeless Wheel Farm, Living Stone Outreach, John Caywood.
