When we moved into what I call our Leave It to Beaver house five years ago it had a tree that had died but was left standing for the most part and it was about ten to fifteen feet tall.
An era in the story of rural electrification came to an end on July 20, 1991, with the death of Mrs. Mabel Bryan Morriss who was one of the main driving forces in the creation of Bowie-Cass Electric Cooperative. Mrs. Morriss, age 95, died in a Texarkana hospital following an extended illness. She served as secretary-treasurer on the Board of Directors of Bowie-Cass for 40 years and as mayor of Douglassville.
Our Chamber staff recently met with Andrea Johnson, a Partnership Specialist for the U.S. Census Bureau. Andrea’s job is basically to work with counties, cities, businesses and residents within her assigned territory to come up with a plan of action that leads to Census responses. Andrea’s enthusiasm truly sparked a fire in our team here at the Chamber, and we want to spread that spark to the rest of the county because this is an area where time is running out and action is extremely important!
