Music can enrich one's life and bring a measure of joy and contentment. It can uplift us emotionally and spiritually. Ranie shared her love of singing with us in 2018 at our 50th Class Reunion after graduating from Washington Street High School in 1968. The Class of 1968 expresses its condolences to the Scruggs and Brown families. I always knew we were related as our grandmothers were sisters. May the God of comfort and tender mercies be with the family at this time of sorrow. Knowing this scripture will give you comfort. (1 Cor. 1: 3,4) May her soul rest in sweet peace and I believe that God will accept her with open arms. The Lord Bless Thee and Keep Thee, Margaret J. Jordan, Class of 1968 WSHS
