Forever Young Southaven s Senior Adult Group SEPTEMBER 2018 OCTOBER THE GOLDEN GRAPEVINE Our Sock Hop Luncheon certainly brought out the poodle skirts and saddle oxfords.

A very special thanks to Annette and Glenn for their rendition of Ike and Tina Turner s, Proud Mary. Congratulations to Jan Sappington and Paul Canada, who won the beautiful gift baskets from Dillard s for the best costume contest.
