ST. ANN’S CATHOLIC CHURCH Shirley Edwards remembers growing up and living behind the Catholic Church in Flaxville. She graduated in 1957 and remembers going to Mass and the church was full of people, rows filled with families. Several large families at the time, to mention a few were Peter Kurtz, Gene Hatfield, Ron Safty, James Cavanaugh, Lloyd French, and Don Becker families. In the summer, there were 2 weeks of Vacation Bible School where the Nuns would come to town to teach about the Catholic Faith.
