Second State Song

Christmas of 1966 was the first Christmas my husband or I had spent outside of Oklahoma. We were in Germany with the U. S. Army in 1966 and 1967, We were stationed in North Carolina at the end of 1968 and our first daughter had been born the middle of November. We had missed home a lot during the past two years and were really looking forward to being back in Oklahoma for Christmas and showing off our new baby.

It was a long drive in our Mustang and as soon as we drove across the Arkansas/Oklahoma line, the first thing we heard on the radio was the B. C. Clark Anniversary Sale Jingle. At that moment we knew we were back home. The Jingle is our favorite Christmas Carol. Thanks for giving Oklahoma our second state song!
