To All of My Friends:
I Lost a Very Close Friend last night Hubert Hillis. Most of you did not know him but I am sure that most of you recieved at one time or another some email from him thru me. He was the owner, (with his wife Anna), of Hillis Grocery here in McMinnville Tn. an area called Depot Bottom. A very unique and only one of a few, old general stores left. I have been going there for close to 30 years for lunch and fellowship that would be hard to put into words. Hubert just lost a sister less than a week ago. So my heart is burdened this morning for his family and friends and I ask you to please pray for each and everyone of them. The good news about this is that I know that Hubert has gone to be with the Lord , but I have another close friend that needs to make that decision, he hasn't been feeling good and knows that he needs to make pease with the Lord so please remember this unspoken request, and
pass this letter on to all of your friends and maybe we can start a Prayer Chain for them all.
With My Love and Prayers to you all
Don Hennessee
