What does your mask say about you?

By Sharon White

As we all pull together to fight the spread of an invasive, invisible virus, many of us are doing it with a bit of panache.

Your face covering communicates a lot about you—without you ever having to breathe a word.

Thank you to these fine folks from Central Texas who were nice enough to show off their masks—and their personalities. All in an effort to keep themselves and the rest of us safe.

When asked about her mask, lovely Lisa Martinez (of Johnnie’s Cleaners in Temple) proudly professes allegiance to her favorite team, exclaiming, “Cowboys, Baby! All the way.”

Matthew Denton credits his wife and mother-in-law for sewing his unique “sushi” mask, in honor of his passion for Japanese food and culture.

Stylish Denise Luster-Kersey says her sister made this special pink stiletto mask, because even though Denise no longer wears high heels, she still wants to feel glamorous.

A&M alumnus and former Marine John Harrison, of Copperas Cove, dons a mask displaying quotes from John Wayne. “Easy there, Pilgrim.”

Susan Cain of Salado admits she is a lover of cats. She rescued hers from Walmart in Belton…he is fittingly named “Marty.”

Four-year-old Hunter Bryan, of Austin, says his “construction worker” mask is his very favorite. He plans to wear it to preschool this year.
