D'Amico recognized
for 50 years in UDC
'DuBCin first United Methodist Church Mews
By Judy Lunsford
Judith Moore D’Amico
received a pin recognizing
her 50 years of membership
in the United Daughters of
the Confederacy (UDC) at
the organization's general
convention in Tulsa,
Oklahoma November 8-10,
2013.
Her mother, Cloy White
Moore was very active in the
Oklahoma Division of UDC,
serving a term as division
President. Her membership
is based on the service of
Minor Lafayette Woolley
who served the Confederacy
with the 10th Alabama
Infantry.
Following the war he and
his wife, Alpha Genetta
Jones Woolley came to
Texas and settled in
Comanche County where
their descendants continue
to live.
D'Amico was born in
Dublin, Erath County and
after a lifetime of world
travels currently lives in
Glen Rose.
She is also a member of
the Daughters of the
Republic of Texas and
currently serves the Bosque
River Chapter that meets in
Stephenville, as Registrar.
She has served as chapter
President among other
elected offices.
D’Amico can trace 13
ancestors who were in Texas
during the period of the
Republic.
Some were also early
settlers of Comanche
County.
Other ancestors served
during the Revolutionary
War, Black Hawk Wars,
Mexican War, World War I,
World War D and Korea. She
and her husband are Viet
Nam Era veterans.

Goodfellows making
plans for Christmas
Dublin Goodfellows met
for their annual session
this past week and elected
Lee Leatherwood to head
the group.
The need for fundraising
was discussed and anyone
wanting to make tax
deductible contributions
can mail them to P.O. Box
95, Dublin, TX. 76446.
A total of 100 boxes of
food will be distributed on
Dec. 21 at Dublin’s First
United Methodist Church.
Wilma Davis will head up
purchase of food and can
be contacted by groups
who wish to donate food
items.
Thank you, thank you to
the people of Dublin and
surrounding area that
support our Rummage Sale.
This support helps the First
Methochst help others. 1
knew a lot of folks looked
forward to shopping for
necessities such as bed
linens, kitchen ware, and
furniture, but I had more
people say God Bless You
on their way past the check
out table than ever before.
It is that “God Bless You”
that keeps us going year
after year, not the funds
we raise. All the unsold
items have been donated
and distributed. Whoopee,
praise the Lord!
A tremendous thanks
and appreciation goes to
everyone who helped
unload the storage bam,
set up the items, sort and
mark. The “Rummage
Queens” had lots of help
this year. Our Queens are
Neva Smith and Kathy
Logan, and they did a great
job.
Pastor Ken Lunsford and
faithful member, Ray
LaBaume worked hard,
they carried and lifted the
heavy items. They also
delivered the furniture for
us.
Ola Mae LaBaume once
again baked plenty of
goodies and sent to the
weary work crew'.
Members of Laurel St.
I Inited Methodist Church
are pitching in to help with
“holiday bags" for the Food
Pantry. Fhese items or a
monetary donation are
needed by 11-17.
.Annette Cleveland still
oversees this important
project. The Food Pantry at
First Methodist, with help
from many sources,
continues to serve the
I Highland News <p<^jfo|§§
Sue Gary was very pleased
and happy with the Job
that Service Master did on
her carpet. She said she
was going to continue using
them from now on.
And 1 was extremely
happy when they cleaned
our carpet and made it
look brand new. I wasn't
sure they would be able to
get all those "accidental
doggie spots" out but they
did.
The menu for next Sunday
is "Chicken."
Ike and Patty Wade
enjoyed their time at the
Tax Seminar in Abilene last
week. Patty said they
learned some new
information for this year's
returns and had a good
time seeing friends who
attend this work shop every
year.
It’s always fun to do a
little shopping, eating out,
and when they started
home, the young couple
who had been their
neighbors just had a new
baby girl in the Brownwood
hospital.
Patty and Ike visited them
in the hospital and Patty
got to hold the baby.
And such a coincidence,
Dan Stewart who grew up
across the street from the
Wades, was the delivering
doctor and they had a
chance to drop by his office
for a short visit with him
while there.
Jim Perry said his wife,
Anita, went to San Antonio
last week to visit their son
and the two grandkids
there.
Jim said nothing much
happens out their way and
his wife hasn't chased him
with a skillet.
I had told Jim how my
mother chased my
stepfather out the door
with a cast iron skillet in a
joking manner but the
funny part was when the
men in the car that came to
the house to pick Lee up
for work sure razzed him
about it.
Alice Keith said she and
son Bobby enjoyed the
singing of the Paul's
Journey Quartet last
Sunday night.
Sonia Evans said she and
the two girls went to Heidi's
school and had a
Thanksgiving lunch with
her.
The November book club
meeting has been set by
the Library for November
16th at 1 pm. The book
"11-22-63" by Stephen King
is certainly timely with the
50th anniversary of the JFK
assignation coming right
up. .Anyone wishing to join
is welcome.
The Library will be closed
for Thanksgiving.
The Annual Book & Bake
sale is in the planning
period. If anyone wished to
contributing some goodies
to this project will be
greatly appreciated. Most
anything that is your
specialty and also "gently
used" household items
such as glassware, linens,
jewelry, craft items,
books...... This is our only
fundraiser during the year.
Please come in and shop or
just even to look.
Happy Birthday to Teresa
Wall, Florence Rector &
Luke Reed, 11/20; Judy
Clark, Jeanne Wendt &
DawnSorrells.il/21; Bob
Parsons & Derrick Kielers,

Laura Leatherwood
served as Worship Leader
and taught the children’s
lesson.
Laura talked about
honoring our veterans who
have served in the armed
services. She showed the
children pictures of the
soldiers training. Laura
said they must train even
in bad weather. The Army
does an advertisement that
says”Be All That You Can
Be, Be Army”
Laura said that Christians
need to train also. They
should pray, read the Bible
and be like Jesus. Then
she gave out wrapped
cookies with a picture of a
soldier on them. The
cookie said “Be All That
You Can Be for God.”
Laura and Jim
Leatherwood were pleased
to have their grandchildren,
Ally and Silas, with them in
church.
The Ushers taking the
offering were David
Cleveland and Joe Salinas.
Rev. Ken Lunsford’s
sermon was taken from
Luke 20:27-38 and titled
“God of the Living!” These
passages tell about a
question the Sadducees
asked Jesus. The Sadducees
did not believe in a
resurrection, a Heaven or a
Hell. They only recognized
the first five books of the
Bible. So the question they
posed to Jesus about life
after death is quite
surprising.
Jesus replies “The people
of this age marry and are
given in marriage. But those
who are considered worthy
of taking part in the age to
come and in the resurrection
from the dead will neither
marry nor be given in
marriage, and they can no
longer die; for they are like
angels.
They are God’s children,
since they are children of
the resurrection. But in the
account of the burning
bush, even Moses showed
that the dead rise, for he
calls the Lord “The God of
Abraham, and the God of
Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
He is not the God of the
dead, but of the living, for
to Him all are alive.”
Jesus quoted from the
Torah and the story of
Moses. God said to Moses
“Take off your sandals, for
the place where you are
standing is holy ground.”
“I am the God of your
father, the God of Abraham,
the God of Isaac and the
God of Jacob.” God did
not say, “I was the God.”
Jesus says this is evidence
in the Torah that life after
death exists.
Heaven is not our
responsibility that is God’s
responsibility. Our
responsibility is how we
live life here and now.
Life beyond the grave is a
reality. Because He lives,
we, too, shall live.
Pig Tales from Hogtown
_By: Carol Pell
Hope you all are planning
to come to the Mexican
dinner at the DAC on
Saturday evening, N ovember
16. There will be lots of
good food served from 5
until 7 p.m. The cost is by
donation.
Are you ready for some
cold weather? I am writing
this on Monday evening at
the end of a perfect day.
But by the time you read
this, things will have
changed drastically! Winter
is definitely not my favorite
season so I guess I will just
hunker down and endure
it!
It’s difficult to believe that
we are coming to the end of
another year - where does
the time go! It will soon be
time for our annual
Christmas Store at the DAC.
We have so much fun doing
this each year. We have
such loyal customers who
support us and come back
year after year. Of course it
helps that the ladies of
Desdemona put out some
terrific sweets for sale. Lots
of the sweet treats can be
frozen and kept for your
Christmas parties. We will
have a drawing during the
Christmas Store hours for a
beautiful quilt made and
donated to us by Carolyn
Gilbert of Gorman. If you
have any gently used (or
new) Christmas items that
you would like to donate to
the DAC for the Christmas
Store, please call me at 254-
758-2420 and we will make
arrangements to get your
donation.
Speaking of Christmas
parties, the DAC is available
to rent for your holiday get-
togethers. Call David
Williams at 254-647-1020
for information.
The pAC will hold a
drawing on December 21
for a rifle - it is a Ruger M77
in the caliber of your choice.
See anyone here in
Desdemona for
information.
