Dekovin Cann's baseball
team just won his division's
National Championship after
having played 6 games in
Orlando at W. Disney's ESPN
Wide World of Sports.
Dekovin hit a grand slam
when the score was 6 to
Dekovin's team 2, with 2 out
and 2 balls and 2 strikes.
After that close loss,
Dekovin's team went on to
win the next 3 games to take
the championship.
Best wishes to Ceddrick Cann who
graduated from preschool and will
be attending Kindergarten this
year.

ups and downs like everyone else.  She retired from the school system a couple of years ago, but
stays busy. She has frequent family gatherings with her brother Robert Barnes, Jr. and sister
Eugenia and her family.   She enjoys looking at our website eventhough she can't place all of the
faces. And, she sends her love to all of us.  Below is a picture of Kaden, Lauras grandson, at 10
