Morgan passed away April 1, 2021, at her father’s home in Mustang.

U.S. Sen. James Lankford sent a text message to West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin in February when Oklahoma was experiencing below zero temperatures.

“I told him thank you for the coal,” Lankford said, referring to Manchin’s home state being heavily involved in coal production. “Without it we would have frozen to death.”

Lankford was in El Reno Tuesday, meeting with constituents and city officials. He spoke to a luncheon group at Swadley’s where he related the story about Manchin, a Democrat considered one of the most powerful swing votes in an evenly divided Senate.

With the help of El Reno VFW Post 382, special education students from Etta Dale Junior High and EHS were treated to a visit from the bunny, which stopped by to say thanks to the students for helping with a class fundraiser in which students stuffed more than 3,000 plastic eggs full of candy.

The eggs were purchased by El Reno residents and will be delivered to yards around the city the night before Easter.
