BULLSEYE

From the President

by Wally Turnbull

Our clan is a big extended family.  We enjoy learning about our ancestors including those who were heroes and those who were villains.  We also enjoy learning about each other when we meet at clan events and here in the pages of the Bullseye.

Besides getting to know each other we must also care about each other.  That is part of being in the same family.  Our earliest ancestors formed the clan system to support each other.  The clans sometimes feuded with each other but within the clan unity and support have been traditional.

We have all heard it said “laugh, and the world laughs with you; weep, and you weep alone.” This may sometimes be true but it should not be so, especially not among clan family members.  When times are difficult and when we are suffering is when we need each other the most.

Of course those who are the closest to us are usually there for us but how nice it is when we receive an unexpected but welcome surprise word of encouragement from a more distant friend.

We want to encourage more Sharing and Caring among TCA members.  Share your joys and your sorrows with us, your clan family members.  We may not be able to solve your problems but we can and do care.  Those of us who pray can include you in our prayers.  Everyone can wish a good thought and some may want to send a word of encouragement.  We will not publish addresses and phone numbers but they are available to members on request from secretary@turnbullclan.com.

Please share your joys of births, marriages, anniversaries, and reunions as well as your sorrows of deaths, illness, and other sufferings with us.  We do care.  Whether you are smiling or weeping we do care and we want to share and care with you.  Write to editor@turnbullclan.com.

Hurricanes Katrina and Rita Update

TCA is happy to report that we have been able to contact all but one of the members in the regions affected by Hurricanes Rita and Katrina.  A few power outages, lost trees and some minor roof damage is all that was reported.  We are thankful for the good report and that everyone is safe.

George Turnbull of Greensboro, NC has asked for our thoughts and prayers for his wife, Anna Marie who is fighting a rare form of lymphoma.  George and Anna Marie have been TCA members since 1980.
