Dear Editor,

Does anyone remember wearing “Bloomers” made out of “feed sack” material? The older I get, the more my mind goes back to the past. Daddy bought feed in pretty feed sack material, and Mama made me dresses and bloomers to match out of the pretty feed sack material.

I do remember being in the First Grade in school and sitting in front of Mrs. Wise’ desk. She asked me, “Are my bloomers showing?’ They were long bloomers and had elastic in the bottom of the legs

P.S. Did anyone else wear pretty feed sack bloomers?

Editor’s Note: I did.

To our Awesome POC Community:

I would like to express my gratitude for our amazing gift baskets. Not only for that, though. Thank you for always supporting us throughout the years. This was a memorable year for sure. I was extremely excited to graduate, and very humble that you all came together as a community to think of how to make this time even more special for us.

All the items in the baskets were amazing! I am now starting a new job and college in the evenings. I was extremely grateful that I was able to purchase my first vehicle with all of your support. My parents made me save my money to purchase it, and your donations made that possible. They said I would appreciate it more if I earned it.

Again, thank you all so much for everything you guys did for us. I am extremely blessed to live in this awesome town! POC STRONG!

Thank you to the Port O’Connor Community and businesses for all you did for the POC Senior Class of 2020. The Senior sign, Senior shirt, gift basket, gift certificates, cash, and drinks/snacks were thoughtful and appreciated. Thank you for celebrating our successes! POC always goes above and beyond.

Sincerely,
Thomas Hawes

As a senior and a 2020 graduate, our year was cut short. The year that is supposed to be full of memories and moments spent with friends got taken away. However, thanks to the amazing Port O’Connor community, it was honestly the best year I’ve had. Seeing the people I look up to and the people I admire put their faith in me gave me a feeling I couldn’t explain. I’m so grateful for everything my POC family has done. On behalf of the POC Class of 2020, thank you so much. Thank you for thinking of us. Thank you for recognizing us and making our senior year one to remember.
