Antique cars to be featured at Crape Myrtle fest
Classic antique cars of all makes
and models will be traveling the
roads early Saturday morning, July
2, as they make their way to the
1994 Crape Myrtle Festival in
Marshallville Georgia! Proud
owners of Model A’s, Model T’s,
Dodges, Desotos, roadsters, coupes,
pickups and many more will be
joining the festivities and
displaying their antique cars for the
enjoyment of the expected crowd!
Interest in these beautiful relics
of days gone by is widespread in the
Middle Georgia area! There will be
15-30 antique cars on display in
downtown Marshallville during the
one day festival. Admission to the
festival and to the car show is free!
Some of these marvelous
automobiles belong to local folks
people like Mac Crowe and his son,
Dennis Crowe. Theirs is a 1928
Model A-all original! Their
pleasure in the car is evident as they
tell about its being one of the First
Model A’s produced! It has been
maintained in its original state with
factory installed upholstery and
original paint! Perhaps that is why
it was selected for the filming of
Fried Green Tomatoes and is under
contract for another movie to be
made soon! Mr. “Mac” says these

Mrs. J.F. Rozar
honored with a
reception at FBC
By PAULINE LEWIS
Staff Writer
In honor of her mother's 90th year, Mrs. Clint (Frances) Strouse
gave a reception for her mother, Mrs. J. Frank (Exie) Rozar, at Perry
First Baptist Church Sunday afternoon, June 19.
Co-hostesses were Sandy Brooks Stokes and Margilu Watts Mims,
1956 Perry High School classmates of Mrs. Strouse, the former
Frances Rozar. Many friends and former fellow church members at
tended.
On Monday afternoon, members of the Eula Riley Sunday School
Class met at the home of Mrs. Evora McGuire to enjoy a social
hour with Mrs. Rozar, a former member of their class.
Mrs. Rozar and her daughter reside in Oregon, 111., and both are
former residents of Perry. Mr. J. Frank Rozar, their husband and fa
ther, and former Houston County Commissioner, is the person for
whom the J. Frank Rozar Park in Perry is named.
The Rozars moved to Perry in 1939 and lived here five years at the
Beckham's Starbuck Farm before moving to Tallahassee, Fla. After
three years, they came back to Malatchee Farm outside Perry in
1948. Following Mr. Rozar's death, Mrs. Rozar continued to reside
in Perry until 1992 when she moved near the residence of Frances
and her family, which includes two daughters, Pam and Cindy
Puckett.
Mrs. Rozar is a subscriber to the Houston Times-Journal and tries
to "keep up with the news from Perry." She said that she "just can't
say enough good things about Perry. Middle Georgia is the best
place to live."
Members of the Willing Workers Sunday School Class have sent a
card to her every week since she moved away in 1992. She is con
stantly amazed at their thoughtfulness and these cards keep her from
feeling so lonely in surroundings away from her Perry "home".
She and Frances are "thrilled, and filled with awe, about the park
and the lovely building at Rozar Park" and hope that "their family
can be represented at the dedication service."
While in Georgia, Mrs. Rozar, Frances and her husband, Clint,
will travel to Eastman to visit Mr. Rozar's relatives and his
gravesite. They will then go to Bremen for her Gamer Family
Reunion and return to Illinois afterward.
Her address is below, for those who would like to drop a card or let
ter to Mrs. Rozar to help keep her abreast of happenings of her Perry
friends: Mrs. J. Frank (Exie) Rozar, 320 Lovers' Lane #4, Oregon,
111. 61061.
