Larry and Anita Lambert hosted their annual crawfish boil this past Saturday at their home. Joey and Teresa provide the crawfish, and Chef Joey does the cooking. Joey turned out a delicious meal. After filling up on crawfish, guests enjoyed the delicious desserts that were brought. The event was enjoyed by family and friends.
Mr. and Mrs. Kevin Wade and Mr. and Mrs. Rob Wade traveled from Illinois to attend the Palestine homecoming service where their grandparents, Clay and Lida Lambert, are buried. It was a double treat to enjoy the Lambert crawfish boil.
Larry/Anita Lambert and Joey/Teresa Lambert traveled to Cookville Friday for the graduation of Harrison Lambert from Tennessee Tech. He obtained his degree in mechanical engineering. He was the captain of the ultimate frisbee team and on the autocross team. He is the grandson of Larry and Anita, son of Brandon and Teresa Lambert and nephew of Joey and Teresa. He is Larry and Anita’s third TN Tech engineer grad following Harrison’s sister Abbey Lambert Cafferty (Chemical) and her husband Sam (Mechanical).
A reminder that homecoming for the Hickory Grove cemetery in Silerton will be on Sunday, May 18.
Frankie and Mary Lynn Lambert and Mike Hatch traveled to Humboldt to see Brynlee Watkins, granddaughter, on her float in the Strawberry Festival parade. Because she placed Queen in the Miss Barbie Springfield pageant, she qualified to participate in the parade. She was in a carriage hand-pulled by her parents, Tracy and Becky Watkins. Becky decorated the carriage with red and white flowers. Tracy refurbished the wheels and rails with white paint. It was a great day for a parade. The sweetest moment was when Brynlee’s carriage passed by them waving and, of course, her beautiful smile.
Please pray for the family of Angie Wiley. She passed away in Longview, Texas, on 5/9/2025. Her body will be brought back to Hardeman County to be buried at Wesley Cemetery when arrangements are completed.
A reminder that Silerton Baptist Church will start their “Wednesday in the Park” for the youth from 6:30-7:30 p.m. June 4.
