Families Helping Families is an extension of the Lambuth Neighborhood Association. Its purpose is provide that neighborly helping hand on projects that are just too large for one to handle. The Association is there to help those that need an extra hand that special weekend. We seem to be extremely good at cleaning debris, bushes that have overgrown and yards that need a little more attention. On that special occassion, we have been known to even paint a house.

Frank and I started SundayNite in January 1994 and the ride has been great I don’t think I could keep up with the hours and demands if the fans were not so great, even the ones we don’t agree with. The NascarLady was an idea that know one ever dreamed would make it. But week after week we have proved them wrong.
We now have a new show and a new station (YOUR TURN TO WIN — WBFG 96.5 ) I just hope that we can do as well for the fans as before.
