The annual meeting of Kokomo Cemetery will be held Saturday, May 6 at 10 AM at the Community Center in Kokomo.

God speaks, and you respond: “Now, what God is trying to say is…” NO, God is not ‘trying’ to say anything. Inherent in the word ‘try’ is the idea of ‘failure’. God cannot fail. He said what He wanted you to hear. “Well, what He meant is…” NO, God said what He meant and meant what He said. The problem is not with God the Speaker but with you the hearer.

The annual work day for the Flatwood Cemetery is set for Saturday, May 6, 2023 from 9:00 until 12:00. Please bring tools to spread dirt and trim trees. At noon we will have our yearly flag dedication. This year’s flag will be in honor of the Dove family. We will then have lunch. Please bring your favoirte foods and desserts. Tea and water will be provided. If you have any questions please call Mark Blaylock (254) 631-1801.

Roll Call, 60 Years Later…

By Tommy Wells Jay Oznick and Audrey Ivey continued to write their names into the Eastland Mavericks’ record books this past week by turning in a stellar outing at the Area Track and Field Championships in Jacksboro. The two seniors highlighted their respective team’s outing by qualifying for the Region II-3A meet.

Hi, I’m Shirley Stuart and I am running for City Commissioner for the City of Eastland. Many of you know me, while many of you do not. For those who do not, let me offer a brief introduction: I’ve lived in Eastland since 1975, with the exception of moving to Fredericksburg for two years following retirement. After two years being away from Eastland, I realized how much I missed the town, my friends and my family, and moved back “home” in 2021.

The City of Eastland, along with Waste Connections, has offered free bagged leaf pickups on the second and fourth Fridays of each month beginning in December. This service for the season will end on Friday, April 28, 2023. All bagged leaves must be placed at the curb no earlier than 24 hours in advance of a scheduled pick up. Residents must call Eastland City Hall at 254-629-8321 to be placed on the pick-up list at least 24 hours before a pick-up date.

Greetings My name is James Doyle, and I am asking for your vote on May 6 for the Eastland City Commission. I am currently working on the Eastland Economic Development Board and Planning & Zoning Board which I have served for 5 years. I also volunteer with our Eastland Hospital Volunteers and on our Chamber of Commerce Board. I was born in 1961 at our Eastland Hospital and graduated in the EHS class of 1979. I am currently employed at Atmos Energy for the past 40 years. My wife Nancy and I have 7 children and 14 grandchildren and we attend the Daugherty Street Church of Christ.
