Our family feels a great sense of pride owning these historical Hennessey buildings and with that comes a great deal of responsibility for their upkeep. The buildings are over 100 years old now and we’ve been working to slowly update them as needed. We’ve added new flooring in the Hive, which serves as our Prairie Quilt retreat and classroom space and replaced a large old window on the north side of the Prairie Quilt building and added a beautiful new door to the front of the store. Inside we’ve worked to put in a wall that was the old LaPorte’s pharmacy pickup counter- that area now functions as a breakroom for our team.

Father’s Day is coming up. My dad was my hero. He passed away in 2005 from a battle with lung cancer. During the 21 months of his fight, we had many conversations. Some were very hard, but all were my gift. Daddy quit school after his 8th-grade year to help support his family. When he was 15, he lied about his age to work on oil rigs. He joined the Marines at the age of 18, serving four years at which he married my mom. She was the calm to his storm! I was the 2nd of 3 children born in Bowie, Texas, while daddy was 100 miles away working on a rig. From the time I was six weeks old until two, we moved 22 times, living in a camper trailer. The term oilfield trash may come to your mind, and that’s ok. It wasn’t always easy, but the hard times weren’t portrayed to me. I thought we were oilfield gypsies. I remember stories of resilience and danger. After moving to Hennessey for the 3rd time, we settled there. I remember traveling on weekends to wherever the rig had my dad. When we drove into Hennessey from the north or south, the lights from the oilfield yards made the sky look like a huge city! My dad was a tool pusher for Chris Well Service. Knowing my dad’s work ethic, a foreman came out to the rig with an appreciation for a pumping position he wanted my dad to apply for. My dad explained he didn’t have the education needed to qualify. The Foreman told Daddy to fill out the application but leave the education part blank.

The Guthrie City Council Tuesday was updated by City Manager Eddie Faulkner about the City’s sales tax revenue, and budget planning for the next fiscal year. “We’re working actively on the budget at this time and we have begun the first round of negotiations with the FOP,” Faulkner said. “As we’re working on this budget, we’re watching our sales tax collections very closely. As we’ve talked throughout the year we’ve had a roller coaster ride. We’ve had a high month. We’ve had a really low period of time, which spanned about four months. And then in May’s collections, we were up 9%.”
