It’s time to start thinking about income taxes
New Center News
As far as the weather is concerned, this year has been a difficult winter. It also has been a time when we have had several deaths in our community.
Christian love and sympathy is extended to the family of Bertie Lee Keel Johnson who passed away Sat., Feb. 12 at the age of 81. For a number of years Bertie Lee was a beautician in the New Center community. There was a branch that ran through the back of their property and when my momma would get a perm my sister Kaye and I would get into trouble for playing in the branch. Please remember Velvert, Faye, Dewain, Teresa, Doug and Kasonyia and their families in your prayers.
