He was born in Arcadia, Fl before moving to Arcadia passed Florida to Clifford Owen Keene, Sr. and Hattie Mae McClenithan. away on Friday, October 19, 2018.
No matter where she called home, Susan enjoyed lifelong forever friends that she always kept close. She had a storied life growing up on the outskirts of Boston, MA. She was a switchboard operator in the late 1960's, a protestor of the Vietnam War, lived across the hall in an apartment complex from a group of men that eventually formed the band Boston, and taught David Bowie how to crack crab legs while working the luxury suites at the former Foxborough Stadium.
Clifford is survived by his New Albany, Indiana to the late brothers: James R., Joseph L., Donald M. Keene; sisters: Joseph and Geraldine Jones. Blanche M. Price, Jane (Craig) Fuller, Dora G. Keene, Deloris A. Gerald is survived by his wife: Ybarra , Pamela Lee Garner and Betty C Jones of Arcadia, Fl; and his numerous nieces and nephews.
She found her way to Florida after answering a help wanted ad for a resort in Sarasota. She loved Sarasota and worked at the Crescent Club, among others, for many years. Life brought her to Arcadia where she finally put down roots. She walked through the doors of Slim's Deep South BBQ, resume in hand, in the early 1990's, and was there until her retirement just this past June.
all of whom preceded her in death. She was a 1965 graduate of Hardee High School, and during her youth she took piano lessons from Mrs. Ethel Curry, which included 12 years of classical piano, 6 years of voice study, and theory. This is where it all began, and she discovered her passion for music. Sherry was a church service pianist at First Baptist Church of Wauchula from age 11 through 16. Sherry would later start her own piano and voice studio, “Tomorrow’s Musicians,” where she influenced the lives of many children through music. It was during this time that she and her mother co-wrote numerous songs for children which were later published by the Southern Baptist Convention. Sherry didn’t stop there. She attended Southeastern University in 1988 and graduated with a business degree. Sherry went to work as a computer programmer, but that didn’t last long as the music inside her had to come out. Over the years she was the music minister for three churches for a total of 18 years. She has directed several children’s choirs, adult choirs, quartets, trio’s, duets, and ensembles. You name it, if it had to do with music she has done it. She also taught ventriloquism. The highlight of her musical career began in 2003 with the formation of The Heartland Chorale and Symphony, where she was the founder, director and conductor. Her moto was “Bringing Quality Music to the Heartland Area”, but it would become way more than that. For 15 years Sherry and her husband Tim had the honor of working with as many as 100 plus singers from the Heartland area and 40 plus Symphony Orchestra players.
He was born on June 16, 1939 in

“Treasures Of Christmas,” “Our Flag Was Still There,” “Precious Memories,” and a youth musical “ Rock Solid,” I know for a fact this was the highlight of her life, and she was so humbled that God chose her to be the director and to know and love each and everyone who participated in The Heartland Chorale.

"What seems to us as bitter trials are often blessings in disguise." --Oscar Wilde
LUCY & ETHEL
A couple in their nineties are both having problems remembering things. They decide to go to the doctor for a checkup. The doctor tells them that they're physically okay, but they might want to start writing things down to help them remember. Later that night while watching TV, the old man gets up from his chair. His wife asks, "Where are you going?" "To the kitchen," he replies. "Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?" "Sure." "Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it?" she asks. "No, I can remember it."
“Hey Lucy, how can I get the Peace River Shopper Subscription?” “Ethel, all you have to do is email angie@dancollins.biz and every Monday afternoon before the Shopper comes out, you will get the link emailed to you. All you do is click on the link and there you go, your very own shopper to read at your convenience.” “That sounds easy Lucy, can you write that down for me please?” “Sure Ethel. Angie@dancollins.biz.”
"I believe that the only courage anybody ever needs is the courage to follow your own dreams." --Oprah Winfrey
"Well, I'd like some strawberries on top, too. You'd better write it down, because you know you'll forget it." He says, "I can remember that! You want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries." "I'd also like whipped cream. I'm certain you'll forget that, so you'd better write it down!" she retorts. Irritated, he says, "I don't need to write it down, I can remember it! Leave me alone! Ice cream with strawberries and whipped cream -- I got it, for goodness sake!" Then he grumbles into the kitchen. After about 20 minutes the old man returns from the kitchen and hands his wife a plate of bacon and eggs. She stares at the plate for a moment and says... "Where's my toast?

“THE STATUE”
Peace River Shopper
Chapter 10 by Bumpy Thermos My sister and I couldn’t believe our dad was telling us this story. He had never told us any of his stories before they were published. All during the story we would think we needed to get down to the basement and check on our gargoyle. It had been a long time since we were allowed down there. Dad was always home, he had not taken one single trip since he started this story. We needed him to leave so we could go down and pour a lot of water on our statue to see if it would move. Remember, dad said in his story that if it was a real gargoyle and you poured a lot of water on it at one time it would have to move. Day after day dad would continue to tell his story about the gargoyle and day after day we couldn’t wait to get down to the basement. My sister just couldn’t take it anymore and asked dad about the statue. What statue Dad asked? Oh dad, the one in the basement. Dad started laughing and said that he had sold that statue a few weeks ago. What, why my sister continues. Well, it always seemed to scare you kids and I just couldn’t have that. The statue was starting to look a little worn and old anyway, so I sold it to Steve, the computer guy when he repaired my computer. But I did notice that the statue sure seemed to be a lot bigger than I thought. It took both of us to get it to his truck. Maybe the thing absorbs water and gets heavier. Dad smiled at us and said, you don’t think that thing was a real gargoyle do you? And then he winked. My sister started screaming and ran to her bedroom. Now we were sure that it was real. Positive actually. Was dad trying to scare us or was he just kidding around? We don’t know that answer, but I do know that we could not forget about that statue. We had to find out where Steve, the computer guy, lived so we could go look for ourselves and maybe even warn him about what we knew and what we saw. Steve had to be told, someone had to do something. This statue must be real. It would sit on dads desk when he brought it home and now it took two men to put it in a truck? Maybe we could find the bill from Steve and it would have his address on it. Now that the statue was gone, we had no problem slipping into dad’s office after him and mom went to sleep so of course that is what we did. Late one night while they were sleeping we went downstairs and started looking for the bill. It wasn’t as hard as we thought, it was right there on the top of his desk, 616 NE Calhoun Dr. But where was this and how would we get there? So out comes the map of our little town and soon we had a good idea of where to go look. It was only about 3 miles from our house, so we could ride our bikes that far. Plans were made and the time came to find this address. After school instead of going straight home as we always did, or at least mostly did, we headed for Calhoun Dr. From the school it was only about 2 miles. Looking back now, I wish we had never gone. But we did and soon we rang Steve’s doorbell. No one answered the door and after a few minutes we decide to look for ourselves through the windows. We tried several windows and nothing, then we pushed back some hedges and looked through another window and there it was, the statue of the gargoyle. It was enormous. That couldn’t be the same statue? Could it??? Bumpy Thermos

It’s Time to Read with
JustTake20.org! Everyday Reading for Florida Families
At JustTake20.org, we help families find everyday teachable moments to add 20 minutes of daily reading to their busy lives. Research says a student’s family support system is the number one predictor of school success. When parents are involved in their children’s reading at home, children do better in school and the schools they attend do better, too. Based on this research, the Florida Department of Education created JustTake20.org to provide K-12 families with practical, easy-to-implement reading activities they can do with their child. Families will find it easy to practice reading at home with their customizable literacy plan, tailored to their child’s grade level and needs. Each family can build its own family profile, score points and earn badges while having fun with various reading and writing activities. Online activities are easily accessed on any smart phone, tablet or computer and include tips for parents and downloadable materials, providing learning at the kitchen table or on the go.

Just Take 20 is funded by the Florida Department of Education and managed by Just Read, Florida! and the Bureau of Family and Community Outreach.
