Chelsea was accompanied by her date, several of her closest friends her parents, Greg and Caran Isbell, brother Justin Isbell, and her beloved “MawMaw”.

Friday they were joined for lunch by Ginger’s sister, Mary Pederson, her daughter Meaghan and grandson 4-year-old Craig of Pell City. Myrt Pfannkuche had family to visit this week. Her daughter, Tracy and Tim Haas, their son Tyler and his friend, Nicholas were here from McDonough, Ga. Evelyn and Dick Whatley were in Whatley last weekend to attend the Whatley family reunion. A special highlight was a presentation by Dick’s brother Billy Whatley on information he had collected on the family cemetery.
