I'll never forget one of the oddest social experiences I have ever had.

It was one time when I was a student At Oklahoma Christian. I was probably twenty years old and was visiting a church in Dallas with a friend of mine. before the service as we were sitting and waiting for things to the again, a woman in front of me turned around to look in the back of the auditorium. When she saw my face she'd looked straight into my eyes and asked "Are you David and Jeanette Williams' son?"

I felt so odd. Almost like I had done something wrong.

This was a church I have never been to and I had no memory of this woman. However, she had been a close family friend fifteen years earlier when we lived in Dallas. Somehow, she recognized me over fifteen years later even though I was only a kid when we left TX.

I had a similar experience this week when I ran into an old friend from Frederick. I haven't seen the Bryan's since 1984 when I was a freshman in HS. Yet we recognized one another and enjoyed an afternoon together.

Here's to old friends!
