Betty has been in the hospital since April 6 when she had spinal cord surgery. Her birthday was celebrated by Joan Turbe and Vickie Miller who came up on Saturday from Waveland, and Pam Hurdle and Becky Harris who came up on Sunday. Betty was visited on her birthday by Dolly White, Beth McCrosky, Jean Gurley, Vickie Sweet, and Chuck Bennett. A birthday party was thrown in the hospital room by some of her closest friends, including Brenda Luther, Becky Ritter, Jerri Hendrix, Jean Doxey, Barbara Taylor and Lynn Hogan. Betty was moved to the Baptist Rehabilitation Hospital in Germantown on May 3 where she is likely to spend the next six to seven weeks recuperating with physical therapy before returning home. Please keep her in your prayers. Charlie Douglas and children, Caroline and Chandler, of Starkville, were the weekend guests of his parents, Leigh and Dick Douglas. While they were here, they also visited with other friends and family. Anna Owens is recovering well after an automobile accident Friday morning on her way to school. Well wishes go out to both Anna and her family on getting well quickly! Billy Cupp Jr., spent a wonderful few days in Las Vegas, Nevada, last week. He met up with long time friend, Alex McCrosky, formerly of Holly Springs. The men were anxious to see the Oscar De La Hoya and Ricardo Mayorga boxing match, which was held at the MGM Grand in Vegas. De La Hoya was coming off of an 18+ month leave from the boxing ring. The much anticipated and highly publicized fight was the highlight of Billy’s trip. De La Hoya took the fight with a TKO, capturing the WBC super welterweight belt, proving once again that he is truly the “Golden Boy” of boxing.
