Franklin County, Alabama
and surrounding area


Note:  I suffered a heart attack April 21, 2007,
and am trying to recover.
If you have not received a response to an email,
please send another in a moth or two.  I am
very much behind. 
Had another stent put in my heart July 31, 2007.
Hopefully I can be back to almost normal.
Thanks ......Ann
