Dycusburg News: Dec. 9, 2010

Submitted by Matthew T. Patton

Lafe Linzy, son of Ray and Vada (Ralston) Linzy, turned 86 on Nov. 25. He spent the day with his daughter, Donna Haire, and family. Those who are familiar with Dycusburg's history know Linzy operated the ferry at Dycusburg for some time. Johny Brown sold the ferry to Linzy on March 17, 1949. Linzy was called back into the Navy to help retrieve the Marines trapped in Korea and closed the operations and sold his ferrying equipment.

Happy birthday wishes are extended to Brad Hunt (Nov. 1), Amber Granstaff (Nov. 2), Jake Selph (Nov. 8), Wanda Hodge (Nov. 12), Tony Maxfield (Nov. 13), Becky Brightwell Howard (Nov. 19), Rick Holsapple (Nov. 19), Shirley Sosh (Nov. 20), Chris Elder (Nov. 21), Shawn Stinnett (Nov. 23) and Zack Brantley (Nov. 29).
