Uncle Felton Mars Thanksgiving
FRANKLIN – Thanksgiving for the Spearce family began innocuously enough Thursday, as family members got together to celebrate and give thanks for the many blessings in their lives. The turkey was carved to perfection, the dressing and yams all delicious, and the pumpkin pie was to die for.
These things all became a distant memory, however, when Uncle Felton sullied an otherwise promising day with his unsavory behavior. Guests thought they had all dodged a bullet, remarking with whispers to each other during lunch, that Uncle Felton seemed “mighty sober for it to be lunch already.” These thoughts quickly faded, however, as the day dragged on.
