Silver Moon and Seabell Thomas

Those of you in Baton Rouge may have seen a TV story about Momma's Feed The Hungry Program in North Baton Rouge, feeding over 400 families for Christmas this year. The report said that Momma could not be there this year. You may remember that 'Momma' is Seabell Thomas, who ran and cooked huge meals of "Mississippi Cooking" at various iterations of the Silver Moon restaurant near LSU over the years. Unpoken in the story was that Momma was diagnosed with Stage 4 Uterine Cancer about 2 weeks ago, and is not doing well at all. By all appearances, she is on the way out and still in her house in North Baton Rouge. If you want to give something for Momma's care, a fund has been set up at Campus Federal Credit Union as the “Mama Seabell Cancer Benefit Account." Other benefits are being organized, but this one is up now.
