Barbara
and M.L. McMahon offer a drive-through donation station for those who like to
clean up and thrift shop bargains for those who like to collect. “We Support
PN-G and Nederland Booster Clubs,” reads the card for their shop at 3417
Nederland Avenue. I had a great chat with this couple. They say they have lots
of family in the area and they support both teams.

The Rev. Roberts retires
The Brandenton Herald of Florida featured retirement
news of the Rev. Don Roberts, who attended school with Janis Joplin and Jimmy
Johnson. Roberts and his wife, Peggy, were honored at Goodwill’s 30th
anniversary tribute luncheon there and they spoke about his serving as a
Methodist Minister for 48 years and retiring after 30-plus years with Goodwill
Manasota. He was the chief executive officer and president and Peggy, its
president of housing. She’s retiring, too.
