I’ve found a love for poetry while in college. I became an avid scholar, reader, and writer. I knew from an early age that my education would depend on the exposure I discovered myself, and I knew I could not rely solely on the education I was obtaining from the small rural town I grew up in.
The Wichita Falls Area Food Bank brought a message of community collaboration and concern to Olney last Tuesday, June 24, during a reception hosted by Mayor Rue Rogers and his wife Anna at their home.
In May,1951, Neil Larimore was in the military and was stationed in Japan. Unlike today, communications were very slow. There were no instant iPhone messages or calls. Recent news was an occasional letter from home. So, Neil was surprised one day when a guy said, “Hey! Larimore, aren’t you from the little town of Olney in north Texas?”
