Got a favorite Christmas memory? We thought of a few

By Linda Waggener

What are your favorite Christmas memories?

My niece Mitzi Bault and I had a fine lunch visit at Liberty Road General Store & Diner the other day. In a brief visit with owner Patty Edwards, we shared some favorite Christmas memories.

Patty remembered her first record player, a gift she got for Christmas. She said, "Daddy liked Charlie Pride, so that was the music that came with my gift." Music is still a great part of Patty's life today.



I also remembered getting a record player for Christmas, shaped like a small suitcase, black and white checked cover and pink inside. Both Mom and Dad loved music. Dad preferred to play his on guitar. Mom loved to listen to music and the one record she played over and over on the new record player was, Marty Robbins, El Paso. I can still hear it playing, "Out in the West Texas Town of Larado."

Mitzi remembered at holiday time on Jamestown Hill, there was a big picture puzzle that always stayed out on her Grandma Waggener's dining room table. She can still see everybody who passed by looking for pieces and fitting a few into the picture before they went on their way.
