Diary Entry for 1/9/2000

Cloudy and warm. I went to Sunday school and church. Wayne came after me. Margaret brought me home. Jim and Nancy took me out to see Merrill in PM. He didn’t talk much but they say he’s getting over his pneumonia. He’s still on oxygen. We stopped at new Philadelphia Restaurant for supper. Ate in front of the pellet fireplace. Jim lighted the candle on the table. Cozy. Jim and Nancy went shopping at Walmarts. They got Merrill a nice 2-piece athletic outfit black and blue and white. They like these at the nursing home. John Johnson and his wife sang Ava Maria in church. Beautiful. Very moving.
