TAHLEQUAH — PROCTOR – Jennie Mae (Guthrie) Morris, age 79 of Proctor,  passed away peacefully on Wednesday, March 13, 2013, at her home.

Her strong will to live, unwavering faith in God, and the love and prayers of family and friends carried her through her final years of declining health.

She is also survived by several nieces and nephews.

Services for Jennie Mae Morris were held at 2 p.m., Saturday, March 16, in the Roberts & Hart Funeral Home in Westville, with Terry Guthrie and Danny Crittenden officiating. Music was presented by the Guthrie family. Interment  followed  in the New Hope Cemetery, Chance.

Poll

What do you think of Sen. McCain's proposal to allow cable TV channels to be sold a la carte (individually, rather than in bundles with a lot of channels no one wants)? Bear in mind some less popular channels could go by the wayside with no bundling support, and that while overall packages should theoretically decrease in cost, individual channels might cost more.

Strongly in favor of a la carte.
Somewhat in favor of a la carte.
Somewhat opposed to a la carte.
Strongly opposed to a la carte.
