| Carol,
Just wanted to let
you know that my mother in law, Ruth Moger Bacon passed away
Saturday. She was 89. I'm not sure what class she was in, but she used
to talk about going to school with
Glad you are back in Carolina. Jamey
Thank you for the nudge, Jamey. I've
had Ruth on the line-up waiting to create this page all week; my
sympathies on her passing.
Ava Gardner (24 Dec 1922 – 25 Jan 1990) was most certainly one of her classmates, for a while, at least. From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ava_Gardner: When Gardner was 13 years old, the family decided to try their luck in a larger city, Newport News, Virginia, where Mollie Gardner found work managing a boardinghouse for the city's many shipworkers. While in Newport News, Gardner's father became ill and died from bronchitis in 1938, when Ava was 15 years old. After Jonas Gardner's death, the family moved to the Rock Ridge near Wilson, North Carolina, where Mollie Gardner ran another boarding house for teachers. Ava Gardner attended high school in Rock Ridge and she graduated from there in 1939. |

Come, Ye Disconsolate
Words by Thomas
Moore; alt. by Thomas Hastings
Music by Samuel Webbe
Come, ye disconsolate, where'er ye languish.
Come to the mercy seat, fervently kneel.
Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish;
Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal.
Joy of the desolate, light of the straying,
Hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure!
Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying,
"Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot cure."
Here see the bread of life; waters flowing
Forth from the throne of God, pure from above.
Come to the feast of love; come, ever knowing
Earth has no sorrow but heaven can remove.
