For a meaningful and memorable Memorial Day in 2026, Limestone County and its surrounding areas offer a range of experiences from quiet reflection to high- energy family celebrations. Here are five ways to observe the holiday:
Blossom Orum Williams, an educator and community leader known for her service to Groesbeck ISD, local Chamber of Commerce and Head Branch Baptist Church, died this week at 91 years old. Survived by two of her children and several grandchildren and great-grandchildren, Williams’ family is continuing “Blossom’s Hope” of educating people about the impact of Alzheimer’s in the community with May 17 event at Lone Star Missionary Baptist Church, 504 S. Leon Street, Groesbeck, from 2 to 3 p.m.
A study of Psalms 119 reveals it is the longest Psalms with 176 verses and the longest prayer in the Bible. This prayer has one main them and that is the Word of God. The Word of God is referred to in every verse of the 176 except for five. These verses reveal at least nine titles and some twelve ministries of the Word of God. It is a prayer worthy of our time and study.
