ENID, OK - Way back in 2005 while living in Bethel, AK we found out hubby got a job at VAFB. So house hunting began. We found Ty and Kelly Tompkins via realtor.com and there starts my Enid story.
Ty and Kelly were amazing they showed tons of places other than the house we loved and still have ties to! And then years later helped my parents find their house on S. Johnson. Back up a bit. When we got moved in Kelly said her mom was helping at something called the Mennonite relief sale and that they had a "quilters corner" and would I like to help out... well THaT one thing changed my life.
Not only did I help in the booth that year but continued right up until 2015! Then I was in AK for 2016 and helped again in 17 & 18, in 2019 I moved to NV. I will never forget all those years helping at the Mennonite relief sale as a NON Mennonite! To this day it remains THE best free event in Enid or anywhere! Do yourselves a huge favor and get out to the next relief sale!
