A blow to the head

My first encounter with my husband was when I threw a piece of coal that hit him in the head. Back in 1953, I was in the 3rd grade at Beulaville Elementary School, and Jackie Creech was the teacher’s pet. I did not like it or him! We used to play in the coal pile that was used to heat the school. One day, I picked up a piece of coal and hit him in the head. Eleven years later we married. Shortly after, a cyst developed on Jackie’s forehead. The doctor had to remove the cyst and said it was a reaction to a foreign object­—the coal from 1953!

We will celebrate our 43rd anniversary in February.

Kaye Creech, Beulaville, Tri-County EMC
