Puppy love
Stone County Nursing and Rehabilitation
Center collected donations of dog items from staff
residents and family members for the Stone County
SPCA. Mrs. Almeree Bond, who is an animal lover
herself, presented a box of assorted dog food and
treats to Katie Stonnington.
Let’s go fly a kite
Mrs. Dorothy McDaniel had a lot of fun flying her
kite on a particularly windy day. Is there anything
better than watching a pretty kite soar?
