Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all of you!

 I hope 2015 will be filled with blessings and good health for all! 

Our first installment of our family blog, Family Trails, is a day late, technically, but I thought it would be exciting to have a post on January 1, 2015.  I also thought it would be nice to have a short, but special post today. 

This picture is of a plaque on a brick fence post at the Alabama Institute for the Deaf and Blind. The plaque honors the four Weaver ladies who taught school here. It was erected about one year ago thanks to the efforts of Robert Weaver.

There are plaques on each of the brick posts lining East South Street in Talladega, Alabama.  Uncle Robert knew that our Weaver ladies needed to be remembered in this way, so he asked the families of these ladies to contribute to this idea.  He did not want all the fence posts on the front of the school to be "claimed" before the Weaver plaque was planned.  

The Weaver plaque is easy to find. It is directly across the street from Heritage Hall. 

We are all grateful to Uncle Robert for his diligence in seeing this project completed….a very good lesson in not procrastinating. (I need constant reminders in this lesson!) 

We continue to be blessed by our dear family member, Robert Cooper Weaver, even after his death this past year.
