said no bones were broken, but she seemed to be in a state of shock. Karen's mother said that Karen had been privileged to get Marcella Williams as her nurse. Since I was going away, I was invited to many social gatherings. I talked to Janet Wildman and Sharon Waggoner at a concert in Indianapolis. Sharon said she was a home economics teacher at one of the schools there. Janet was a librarian for the public library. Neither were married, but they were dating a lot and having a great time. They said Penny Mattingly was married and living in Loogootee. Sharon said her husband was really handsome and dark complexioned. They missed their friend, Phyllis Fields, considerably. Phyllis decided to be a travel- ing woman. They said she had gone around the world once already. They didn't say how she was traveling though. She may have been in orbit! Jane Wade invited me to her baby shower. I was really glad to see Wanda Souerdike, Linda Hembree, Joy Jackson, and Judy Fry there. Wanda had joined the WAC's, but she was home on furlough. Linda was running a poultry house in Loogootee. Her hired help was Larry Fellers and Roger Taylor. Joy said that she and Lin Olsen were secretaries for Mr. Jones. They typed out his tests for him. Finally it was time for me to leave for Africa. I knew I would miss Burns City so much. I would never forget the smell of rotten oranges in Bill Strange's store. I would miss having Eddie McGuire shine my shoes every Friday afternoon as he made his daily rounds. I would miss taking all my holey socks to Judy Hite's Darning Shop. Steve Witsman and his wife, Linda Strawn, and their three children keep Judy in business. I was gossiping with Linda over our backyard fence when she said that Mike Woods, his wife, and children visited them a few weeks ago. Mike had finished college and was working in Hawaii as an electronical engineer. Mike had told them that Delbert Stoll and his wife were flying to Japan where Delbert was a colonel in the Army. The great day arrived. I was seated in the jet which was to take me to Africa and to my future. Jo Anne Chattin, the stewardess, kept me comfortable and saw that I had plenty to eat. My seat companion happened to be Roger Parsons. He was being sent to Africa to bring a gorilla back to the States. His constant chatter of big snakes, apes, and lions had me about ready to jump out of the window. After I had stepped out of the jet, I watched the passengers get off. The last one out was the pilot, who to my amazement, was Gary Jeffers. No wonder the ride was rough. I was happy with my job as a missionary. It seemed that everyone in our Senior Class was happy and satisfied with what they were doing. Even Deri Littrell got his wish to be an accountant. He was the accountant for all the mission stations in Africa. Although we were the meanest Senior Class that was ever in Loogootee High School, we grew up to be fine men and women. by Barbara DeWeese Compliments of HOOSIERS SUPPLIES INC., Loogootee, Indiana JEFFERS GARAGE, Loogootee, Indiana
