She has seen cases where people died, and where the only symptoms were headaches. New symptoms were added to the list, and she suggests any one with new symptoms such as chills with shaking, muscle pain,body aches and a sudden cvF tn«»te err smeft to isolate and seek medical attention.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 7, 2020 - 3 " 2 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 7, 2020 Editorial Can staying Jti The Mail .. at home cause hallucinations? Has Roy Cooper had a haircut recently? I tend to be on the yes side. Others say he’s bushier than before in the back, and that overall, his hair is longer. Oth ers will say but look at his ears, his hair is neatly trimmed around the ears. Hair growing over the ears is a tell-tale sign of a man who needs a haircut. Why are people questioning the hairstyle of their gov ernor? Because in late March, he issued an executive order banning all barbershops and beauty salons from opening. No more haircuts, styles or color for anyone - unless they do it themselves. That order has been extended until at least May 23, maybe even later. None of the people I talked to think Roy Cooper cuts his own hair. It’s either he has had it cut professionally or he hasn’t. Roy, you’re about my age. We both have what most people would call “good hair.” Mine was going over the ears a couple of weeks ago. Mine has grown so much that people think I’m trying to bring back the mullet (Actu ally, I think I may let it grow into a full-grown mullet, you know that haircut, business in the front and a party in the back. It drives women wild. But I also want it long enough to go into a ponytail. That drives a different set of women wild. You can’t have a ponytail and a mullet, so I guess I’ll have to decide. I’ll probably stick with the old usual, which drives no women wild.) Yes, I’m picking on Roy Cooper. He’s in a no-win situa tion. Health officials are telling him a continued shutdown will help slow the spread of the coronavirus. His economic officials are saying people can’t take much more of not being at work. I’m with those economic officials, for purely personal reasons. I thought things like working from home and staying at home when not working were right up my alley, as long as there are plenty of adult beverages and yard work that needs to be done. But lately, things have been going astray. I’ve gone three days without taking a bath. (Of course, I wash my hands. Do you think I’m an animal?) Why bother when there’s nowhere to go, no one to offend? I draw the line at three days, however; any longer and the odors can waft six feet or more. You get the picture. On this one, I guess I’m just lucky my wife’s sense of smell is minimal. I saw a squirrel wearing a necklace the other day. Re ally. Don’t start thinking about those adult beverages, 1 hadn’t gotten into those. Yet. But there he was, a cute little squirrel standing on its hind legs, a shiny necklace dan gling in front of his neck. I eased to the door to get my wife to come outside so she could also witness this miracle, perhaps bring her cell phone and snap a photo, it would be better than a real Bigfoot sighting. Just as I knocked on the door, the squirrel took off. When he moved, I could see that necklace was nothing more than a piece of a sunflower seed that had become stuck on its chin. But it looked like a necklace. Really. Now it’s time for that adult beverage. Also in recent weeks, I realize that I have neighbors. I already knew this, even know some of them by name, but folks started walking down the roads who I have never seen. Kids on bicycles. Where did they come from? Fami lies walking with little babies. They live around here? Women power walking. How come I’ve never seen them before. And, it’s hard to give a good reason, but I’ll call it bore dom, I started to make up stories in my mind about these people. One woman came walking by with a purpose just the other day. Then she came by again, this time jogging. Then again, this time running. Then again, walking. She’s getting rid of stress, I thought, and couldn’t stop myself from imagining what her life is like nowadays. I pictured her kids at home, tied to chairs so they wouldn’t break anything while she was gone, their mouths probably duct- taped shut. Stranger things have happened during stay at home orders, right? There’s a Grateful Dead album titled “What A Long, Strange Trip It’s Been.” Forget the drugs, all you need is days upon end at home and an uncontrolled imagination.

POSTMASTER Send Address Changes to: Davie County Enterprise Record P.O. Box 99, Mocksville, NC 27028 Seniors deserving of respect To the editor: The plethora of opinions regarding the COVID-19 pan demic leaves me pondering a number of issues about our culture and, honestly, about life in general. We all have a right to express our opinions. That’s one of things that makes America, well, America. But with the right to express opinions comes the respon sibility to express said opinions with basic respect to oth ers. To this degree, a number of recent protests — verbal as well as active — is sadly disturbing; it brings to light a growing and unwise trend in decreased regard for com munity as well as for self. In the past three weeks, I’ve heard several young, healthy citizens reference our senior population as old people. This misnomer constitutes one of many examples of this trend. I’m not a member of the senior age group, but by God’s grace I will be a member at some point. So the lack of respect stings. There is no place for this type of infraction within a young, healthy generation of persons who claim to be so acutely concerned with political correctness. Where are the outcries for justice? The demand for apologies? In a nutshell, there will be neither outcries nor a demand. Why? Because in this case, the wronged social group un derstands a concept that many in this young, healthy sector desperately need to leam. It’s called dealing with life. But the growing lack of respect I see for our seniors un dermines the importance God places on the intrinsic worth of each individual generation; specifically, its need to draw from its forerunner.s as examples for successful community living. His instruction on the matter spans both the Old and New Testament, clear back to the generations of ancient Israel, with good and necessary consequences. The Old Testament gives explicit direction on commu nity living. We’re called, for example, to “stand up before the gray head and honor the face” of community elders (Leviticus 19:32). God warns us further to respect their au Resident shocked by animal control announcement To the editor: I’m one of the many Davie County residents who was shocked and saddened to see Davie County Animal Con trol announce they wanted to do be responsible for animal adoptions again. The Humane Society of Davie County has been a dedicated group that has made a huge difference in our community by placing animals in the right home for the animals and families that come to the Davie shelter. Many of these animals haven't had the best start io life, and having a responsible process for ensuring their next family doesn’t disappoint them is critical. How can you cast aside the value brought by the Hu mane Society’s fundraising skills to help medically in 2019 with $86,684? How can you overlook that the Humane So Animal control change a mistake To the editor: What a huge mistake Davie County Animal Control is making by wanting to take back adoption,s again. Their Facebook post announcing recently their new plan has caused quite an uproar in our community. We’ve all seen the success of the Humane Society of Davie County’s part nership as the primary adoption function for the county. 93% save rate overall in our community is phenomenal. No reason was given to justify this major overhaul in adopting out animals in Davie County. I commend the Humane Society of Davie County for having adoption policies in place to take more time in placing the animals. When the animals were allowed to be adopted out on the same day, we all shook our heads when they were returned and shuffled through the system Do what’s best for the animals To the editor: I am frustrated with the decision to stop having the Hu mane Society of Davie County be the adoption group for the animal.s that come to the Davie Shelter. Why would Davie County Animal Services/Control choose to take this back over? Every week in our state 1,077 dogs and cats are eu thanized in shelters. North Carolina has the third highest kill rate in the country behind California and Texas. Best Friends Animal Society has set a lofty but admirable goal to get NC to become no-kill (more than 90% saved that come to the shelter) by 2025. Here’s the ironic part, the Humane Society of Davie County (HSDC) has gotten us there - six years ahead of the goal. HSDC has even done better than the goal by having the Davie shelter save rate get to 93% in 2019. This past year they adopted out 674 dogs and cats to their forever families. HSDC helped an additional 846 dogs and cats find forever homes through networking with their repu table rescue partners. When Davie County Animal Services (animal control) were on their own before the partnership they were only able to adopt out 364. Even if you’re not an animal lover, it’s simple math. Who reinvents the wheel that is not bro ken? Especially one that is not a burden to the taxpayers’ pocketbook? California’s governor chose to commit to a no-kill state but at the taxpayers expense. Aren’t we lucky that HSDC has taken that on for us? Now will we have more financial burden by animal control kicking them to the curb? thority. Listen to this: the prophets revealed that younger generations who were strong-minded or insolent toward el ders signified God’s judgment upon Israel (see Isaiah 3:5). Trust me on this; the same principle applies to America, and we’re not handling it well. The following New Testament passages strike the loud est chord in my mind as I reflect on the growing disregard for seniors in our community. One particularly unsettling scene that replays itself in my mind is that of a middle-aged government official who serves my district and offered ad vice on a situation a couple years ago. Of a similarly con troversial issue in my community, he said that everything would be fine once the old timers settled down and realized his office would move on with its plans. I’m one of the citizens who opposed the project. I’m also close to his age. Paul writes that younger generations are not to “rebuke an older man but encourage him as you would a father . . . [and] older women as mothers, in all purity” (1 Timothy 5:1-2). Even Peter—the apostle who rarely backs down from a challenge — ties respect for elders to godly humility: In the same way, you who are younger, submit your selves to your elders. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because, “God oppose.s the proud but shows favor to the humble.” Humble your selves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time (1 Peter 5:5-6 ESV). All of this boils down to a call for each of us to practice this truth in a culture that values personal autonomy as su perior to respect for authority. Like it or not, our seniors are far more experienced than we are; they know far more than we know. They need our respect; they deserve our respect. And more importantly, we have the God-given ability to give them our respect. So let’s start acting like it. Carole-Anne Hallyburton Cleveland NC ciety of Davie County has made our shelter a no-kill shel ter, which many other shelters aspire for? How can you downplay that there was absolutely no reason to walk away from something clearly successful? Many of the volunteers have been outspoken about the care of the animals in the shelter without HSDC there to help. It’s hard for us constituents not to think there is truth to these statements when the numbers just don’t justify animal control’s decision to dissolve this clearly beneficial partnership. Please reconsider by doing the right thing. Our county taxpayers and the animals think we deserve better than this poor choice. Lauren Tolley Advance because due diligence wasn’t possible in such a quick turn around. Animals need time to decompress, understand their needs, and personality. The Humane Society of Davie County gets it. They also get how adopting out animals and providing proper medical care is so important. It’s unfair to dump an animal on an unsuspecting adopt er, to find a lot needs to be done to the animal financially. Now, the HSDC team makes sure the adoptive family knows the complete picture. Davie County Animal Control and Sheriff Hartman, please reconsider the ramifications this decision will have on these animals. It takes a village to save lives and make a difference. Let’s all do this together. Kissy Merrifield Advance Let the folks who know how to process adoptions do what they do best which would be HSDC. And have animal control handle intake and vetting like they’ve been trained to do. Many of the animal control staff are related to one another or are close friends. Just because the HSE>C staff may not be your family member or related to one another, doesn’t mean they can’t be your teammate or partner in saving lives and making a difference. Let’s keep going in the positive direction of saving lives, HSDC placing ani mals in the right home, and having everyone’s strengths be recognized. That’s how we will best serve the animals of Davie County.

Morgan Costner Darkow and her now husband Andrew. The couple became engaged in Italy. Where Are They Now? Morgan Costner got the pharmacist bug while in Davie The Davie Community Foundation is sharing a con tinuation of the "Where Are They Now?" articles. By Madison Hartness Davie Community Foundation Morgan Costner graduated from Davie County High School in 2008 and was a recipient of the White-Martin Scholarship. To Morgan, Davie County mean.s home. “Being in Davie County brings back so many memories that I cherish like high school graduation, dance recitals, my first job as a pharmacy technician and Friday night football games. I am proud to be able to call Davie County home.” During high school, Morgan worked as a pharmacy technician at Walgreens. This job reinforced her desire to become a pharmacist. Following graduation, Morgan at tended Campbell University where she completed two The Literary Corner: Renegade Writer’s Guild '‘John C. Campbell Folk School” By Marie Craig Every year from 1988 to 2017, I taught classes (tatting and genealogy) at John C. Campbell Folk School near Murphy. I started taking classes there in 1974. I became very interested in learning more about the creation of this school which was started in 1925 for adults who seek skills in crafts and want to enjoy life at summer camp. Even though there is a history archivist employed there, I found lots of gaps in knowledge about the people who founded the school. So I compiled a book of data two inch es thick about the early history of the school and the lead ers in creating it. Dr. John C. Campbell wa.s bom in 1868 in Indiana and schooled in New England at Andover Theological Semi nary. He had a degree in the ministry but felt compelled to teach poor children in the Southern states. He married a woman from his hometown, and they moved to Joppa, Alabama, where he was principal and teacher at a school for poor children. They had a son who died at six weeks, and then hi.s wife died of tuberculosis. John then had a similar job at Pleasant Hill, Tenn., and later wa.s president of Piedmont College in Demorest, Ga. During thi.s time, John’s parents and his brother and sister all died, several from tuberculosis. He became overworked and ill and took a cruise to Scotland. On this ship is where he met Olive Dame who wa.s 14 years younger than him. She wa.s from Massachusetts and was traveling with her mother and sister. After returning to the states, John and Olive were married and traveled in Europe for a year. The desire to help poor Southerners was still his goal, and he became an employee of the Russell Sage Founda tion. He and Olive spent much time in the back roads sec tions of the South, learning more about the culture and their desires for the future. Olive became interested in preserv ing the mountain ballads and compiled these into a book. They had two little girls - one died at 10 months and the other at 20 months. John died in 1919, just two years later. Olive could have given up after so much bad luck, but instead, she and a friend. Marguerite, searched for a loca tion for a folk school for adults. They founded Campbell Folk School in 1925. John had kept detailed notes on their travels, and Olive and his secretary finished his book, “The Southern Highlander and His Homeland,” which is one of the first accurate portrayals of life in the rural South. They named the school for John, even though he'd never been in this area. The school purpose originally was to help the lo cal people learn how to be better farmers and crafts pieople but ha.s a more universal purpose now. It continues to be a delight to those students who come for a week of fellow ship and learning skills in craft.s or music or dancing. Olive also helped establish the Southern Highland Handicraft Guild. She died in 1954 and is buried in Med ford, Mass., next to her husband and two little daughters. One of the oldest building.s on the campus was originally a farm home. That's where Olive lived and had her office. It has recently been a dormitory for students. She was very straight-laced, and occasionally appears in this building to remind people to follow the rules of the school. “Still Home ” By Gaye Hoots I have gotten comfortable with being home. 'When I go out most of the time, I stay in the car with my three-year- old twin grandchildren, while their mom, wearing mask and gloves, pick.s up our groceries and take-out food. We have been fortunate as only one grand lost employment briefly but is now back at work part-time. None of us has been sick, and we are grateful. I am still awaiting my stimulus check, which I realize is a loan, as is the rest of the stimulus money. Taxpayers will bear that burden a long time, but some of it was necessary, in my opinion. There is a lot of debate about opening up for business vs. staying honje. Our economy has taken a betting. The virus years of pre-pharmacy course work then began pharmacy school at Campbell University College of Pharmacy and Health Services. After four years in the program, Morgan graduated in May 2014 with a Doctor of Pharmacy degree. A.s a member of Kappa Psi Pharmaceutical Fraternity, her college years were filled with developing lifelong friendship.s and participating in community service. Mor gan worked alongside fraternity members to help provide immunizations to community members, and coordinate blood drives and health fairs. She wa.s also putting her skills as a healthcare professional to the test, all while learning about leadership and how to work with others as a team. Morgan had the opportunity to travel to several state and national conferences including the N.C. Association of Pharmacists conference and the American Society of Healthcare PharmacisLs Midyear Clinical Meeting, which is the largest national conference of pharmacists. Her de sire to travel and continue her learning emphasizes her be is dangerous, esjjecially for the older and health compro mised. My advice a.s a nurse is to stay home if you have that option until you feel safe venturing out. Having spent some time on Facebook, I see it riddled with political opinions, medical opinions, and conflicting opinions a.s to the cause of the virus. I read it all, even ar ticles from the satire sites often quoted as facts, conspiracy theories, and mean p>ersonal attack.s on political figures. The medical info is more straightforward for me to dis cern as a nurse. The economic info is more complicated. I know we can’t stay shut down forever and that every day is expensive us. It costs us a.s individuals and a.s taxpayers. It would be helpful if we could compare the number of essential workers who are contracting the virus with those strictly isolating. My plan i.s to comply with government regulation.s and stay in for a while after the ban is lifted to see if the numbers jump. That is not an option for my children and grandchildren. They must work and will comply with their company’s guidelines as they must to survive. I support in dividual decisions for each of us, a.s no one knows the exact responsibilitie.s and circumstances of another. My Facebook posts are positive, mostly. I do have a mean sense of humor and sometimes post a smiley face be fore thinking through all the implications. I support kind ness. We cannot look to our political party to save u.s. We must take responsibility for ourselves and supp>ort and help others when we can. Our county has been fortunate in the broad scheme of things. The changes we see a.s a result of the virus, like the clearing of our atmosphere, should lead us to reevaluate our choices of working from home for companies that can fjermit it. Consider online education, especially for older adults. They don't need the socialization experience and maybe for the first two years of college as that socialization process can often be a negative one. For now, 1 have cut out my daily fast food run.s and hope to maintain that. No one else is going to save us or sink us. We must help ourselves and others. “The Treasure Within” By Julie Terry Cartner Sitting in my study, I look out the window at the beau tiful linden tree my husband and I planted twenty-five years ago. Then a slender sapling, we watered and babied it through it.s first years. For me, thi.s was so much more than a tree, it was, and still is, a connection. We brought it here from my family’s home. Linden Farm, aptly named for the numerous linden trees residing on the property. As a child, I spent countless hours climbing the beautiful linden trees in my yard, sometimes hiding, sometimes pretending, and often reading book.s as I escaped into the magic of fic tion. There, I could sail the seas, conquer villains, and ride my glorious steed over prairies and through dense forests. There I could be the hero, the villain or the damsel in dis tress. I could be the participant or the observer. My life; my choice.

To today’.s high schcxil seniors, she said that opportuni ties are everywhere and there are always people who will share knowledge and experiences if you are interested. A.S a clinical psychiatric pharmacist with North Caro lina, Morgan now helps prepare and monitor prescription medication therapy to patient.s with psychiatric disorders. She is a member of a treatment team that includes physi cians, nurses, psychologists, and social workers who work together to provide the best possible care for their patients. When Morgan i.s not working, she enjoys traveling with her husband, Andrew Darkow. The two got married on Oct. 12, 2019 at Boxwood Estate in Mocksville after meeting at Morgan’s pharmacy school graduation. After getting en gaged in Italy, married in Mocksville, and taking a honey moon to Hawaii, Andrew and Morgan settled in Raleigh to pursue their careers in pharmacy. Now, all these years later, 1 look at my next generation tree, now fully grown. It provides shade and shelter for many. At thi.s moment. I see five cardinal.s perching on it.s branches, their vibrant plumage shining in the sunlight. It is not unusual for the tree to be a cacophony of color: the gem-like blue and orange-red of the bluebird, dazzling yel low of the golden finch, and the shiny, almost iridescent shimmer of the blackbird. Not to be ignored, the more subtle, yet equally beautiful, shades of the sparrow, wren and mockingbird adorn its branches. Often my cat shelters there also, stretching out on a long limb, relaxing in the sunshine. Beneath the tree, my dog, Linus, enjoys the shade and the ability to hide his treasures under the low-hanging branches. Part dog, part raccoon, he gathers his version of shiny objects; a plastic flower pot, several tennis balls in varying degrees of destruction, a purloined T-shirt and remnants of an old pink blanket that used to grace the floor of his dog house. Nearby, hi.s sister, Lucy, lies in the shade, just waiting for the opportunity to steal one of his posses sions, Like any annoying sibling, she ha.s no interest in hi.s valuables other than to annoy her brother by stealing them. All these beautiful creatures are encompassed in, or un der, this one tree growing outside my window. Right now I can see the individual branches, the bird.s perched upon them, my cat and my dogs because linden trees don’t bud as early a.s many others. A late bloomer, leaves are just starting to emerge on the branches, thus giving me, in my second floor study, a bird’s eye view of the tree and all the beauty contained within it. Soon the leaves will fully emerge, and I'll no longer be able to see beyond the outer leaves. I will only be able to hear the joyous songbirds war bling their songs, and next autumn, when the leaves fall. I'll be able to look through the bare branches once again, to see the residual nest.s from the various birds which found shelter there. Although I will not be able to see them nest ing or [jerching until then, I will know they are there. This tree, which provides shelter, beauty, and nostalgic memories for me. is like life iLself with all of its treasures and splendor. We can’t always see what’s contained inside, but that doesn't make the richness any less real. This spring we've been given the opportunity to slow down and look at life in a different way. This spring we've been given the opportunity to assess our lives and our values. This spring we've been given the opportunity to determine the path.s we will take when this pandemic is over. Our lives will change; they already have, and they will again. It’s going to be up to us whether we make the changes permanent, or which changes we will make permanent. We have the choice whether we seek the beauty we know is contained within, or whether we return to our hectic existence of before that left little time for reflection or appreciation. Choose wisely. We know, as never before, how quickly and thoroughly life can change.

Seniors drive through for caps & gowns They came for a cap and gown. They left with much more. Davie County High School seniors last week re turned to the school to pick up their caps and gowns - ordered long before the coronaviru.s caused the gov- COVID .. Continued From Page 1 in homes every day. Do mestic violence doesn’t stop during a pandemic,” she said. “They’re the un sung heroes of public ser vice in our community.” The commissioners ad opted a resolution and ap proved a letter to be sent to Gov. Roy Cooper asking that the county have more say in re-opening. The stay- at-home order is scheduled to be lifted on Friday, but few more businesse.s can open. “The closure of busi nesses through May contin ues to create a significant hardship on Davie County residents. As a rural coun ty, we depend heavily on our small businesses, as they make up a significant portion of our business ernor to cancel in-school classes for the remainder of the school year. They drove by in cars. As the cars wound around the parking lot, so did teachers and staff members, friend.s and family member.s - all shouting words of encour agement, holding signs and ringing bells. Each student also re ceived a yard sign proclaim ing a proud Davie High 2020 graduate lives here. They also received a Chik- Fil-A sandwich. Superintendent Jeff Wal lace called the event a way of celebrating their accom- plishments. “Davie County Schools has a really positive story to tell and that is one of com munity, trust and love in this time of adversity,” he said. “It’s a really important les son we can share with our students.” Staff and volunteers hand out sashes and yard signs. - Photos by Robin Snow community; and the gover nor should apply an equal standard for businesses vs. deeming some essential or non-essential." The proclamation went on to say that a further stay- at-home order and closure of businesses will take lon ger for the economy to re cover. "Due to our rural popula tion, it is achievable for our residents to practice control measures to prevent further community transmission more so than urban coun ties." It request.s that the gov ernor "allow Davie County and other rural counties to reopen businesses and houses of worship in a safe and responsible manner, taking into account social distancing and mass gath ering restrictions, exercise proper hygiene, increased COVID testing capability, and extensive contact trac ing measures to prevent the continued spread.” At the request of mem ber Mark Jones, the board also agreed to send a proc lamation to the governor the Davie board adopted in February declaring itself a constitutional rights county, Jones said it is time for the board to stand up for its residents. "There comes a point and its coming soon, when the citizens of Davie County are not going to accept any more passing the buck to Gov. Cooper and folks in Raleigh. It is inherently un fair for box store parking lot.s to be filled to the brim, exposing themselves, and on Main Street today, every small business is closed,” Jones said. “Is it fair for WalMart to be open selling clothes and whatever and our small businesses to be closed?" He also mentioned the fact that abortion clinics and liquor stores are still open, “I really don’t care what Gov. Cooper says. Folks, it’s getting out of hand. Da vie County needs to take care of Davie County. The day is coming when it’s not good enough to send proc lamations and resolutions to the governor. It's almost a joke to go by these box store parking lots. It’s not right.” Commissioner Benita Finney agreed. "By the number of cars at the big box stores over the week ends, it’s time to open up some of our smaller busi nesses ... the backbone of our community.” fsmm MEATtNO, COOUNQ, REStDENTtAL*PWMBING SALES, SERVICE.

Bailey Sloan. Dead. It hardly seems real, and definitely not fair. The 2017 Davie High graduate is gone suddenly and far too young. He was 21. Sloan - who wa.s affectionately known a.s “Belly,” a nickname he picked up the summer before his senior year because his stomach was always showing below his football jersey - played two sport.s at Davie, the other lacrosse. Sloan wa.s the starting center on the of fensive line in 2015 and 2016. As a senior, he helpted the War Eagles to a fabulous season, going 12-2 overall, winning the conference with a 6-0 sweep and finishing tied for the second-most wins in program history. The only losses were to the even tual 4A champion. Dudley. The home loss in the quarterfinals drew the curtain on old War Eagle Stadium. Sloan did the grunt work in the trench es with Euke Pratapas, Zach Clubb, Ros.s Starnes, Dex Bray, Preston Robertson and Marvin Del Cid, But Sloan entered the program a.s a defensive lineman. After hi.s sophomore year, he switched to o-line. The move paid off handsomely for "Belly" and Davie. "It was not until an opportunity to help the team by playing center did I get to know him on an everyday personal level,” Davie OL coach Jimmie Welch said. "I wa.s blessed from that point on by know ing and coaching him. Bailey helped lead a group of young men through an amazing season.” Coache.s Tim Devericks and Welch and the 2015-16 quarterback, Chris Reynolds, couldn’t say enough great things about Bailey. He was a low-ego, low-mainte nance guy. He was always talking and laughing and smiling. He was Just a guy you wanted on your team. "Speechless is what I responded when asked about receiving the new.s that Bailey had passed away,” Welch said. "Upon thinking about Bailey, though, ’speech less’ definitely does not describe him. I wa.s always amazed by his humility and his ability to make fun of himself to help others laugh. Bailey wa.s a young man that wore his emotions on his sleeve and played with a fire burning in his gut - the same belly he often shaved into different images and matched his crazy hairdos. He wa.s liked by everyone and was selfless. I hate this for his family and friends. He will be dearly missed.” Head coach Devericks said; "Bailey was a fantastic young man who was willing to help do anything for anybody that he could. His senior .season he and his teammates had a bond that I have never seen before. It wa.s truly remarkable. Bai ley was a great competitor and was always looking for ways to improve himself so the team could improve. Bailey loved DC and would tell anybtxly about it." Reynolds: “He was a defensive line man and they asked him to switch over, and he did it in a heartbeat. And he took pride in it. He wanted to protect and be there for me and be there for Cooper (Wall) and all the other guys. That’.s how he lived hi.s life with everything. Whether it was going out and painting the field or hanging out with us outside of football, he always genuinely cared for every body else first and always found excitement and happiness in others.” Reynolds checked his text messages from Bailey. One of the last ones he sent summed him perfectly. "He sent a SportsCenter video of me (playing quarterback for the Charlotte 49ersJ,” Reynold.s said. “He said; ‘Dude, look what I saw. This is awesome.' 1 was with him a few weeks ago. We were playing a little pickup ba.seball. and you would have thought we Just got out of high school a week ago. Some things don’t change. He wa,s alway.s happy to see the people that he loved.” Ask anybody and Sloan wa.s impossible not to like. "My boys (Ben and Will) are heart broken. as so many of his friends.” Kim Summers said. "Every time he came to the house, he always had a smile, showed respect and was so grateful. I'm going to miss feeding him.” “He was always so nice to everyone." said Melissa Boswell, a teacher at Davie. “He always had a smile on his face.” "One of the truly good kids,” said Raymonda Shelton, the assistant principal at William R. Davie, There is a photo of Reynolds carrying the ball in a 2015 playoff game at Scot land County. The photo says it all. Sloan is in the background with his hand.s up, signaling touchdown. "Thi.s picture describes him perfectly," Reynolds said. "He always put others before himself. He found pure Joy and happiness in watching other,s succeed. He wa.s pure Davie County and pure heart. With everything he did, he didn’t do it out of self-satisfaction. It wa.s always for the sake of other.s. "Bailey lived with a smile on his face. He'.s a brother for life and we're going to miss him so much. Our great small town and I love you. Bailey." Sloan’s outgoing, upbeat presence shined brighter than ever the week of the North Davidson game in 2016. On that Friday night at home, Davie prevailed in one ofthe all-time shootouts, 45-42. "We were preparing for North Da vidson and it had been a difficult week Please See Bailey - Page B3 . 11, 1988 Wrestlers beat Kannapolis, clinch CPC title Editor’s note: At a time when sports are shut down by the COVID-19 pandemic, we take a look at some memorable mo ments in Davie sports history. By Ronnie Gallagher Davie Enterprise Record For the Davie wrestling team, it was time for a gut check and Jerry Mann stepped forward to knock the wind out of Kannapolis’ chances in the Central Piedmont Conference championship match. The War Eagles, who have never lost in their three years in the CPC, found themselves holding a precarious 19-9 lead against the also-unbeaten Wonder.s and the 145-pound Mann was on his back, an inch from getting pinned. If the Wonders get the pin, they are with in four points with their strongest wrestlers coming up. But Just as quickly as Mann found himself on his back, he rolled his oppxment over and re corded a pin of his own, giving Davie a 25-9 lead. The War Eagles cruised from there to a 40-19 vic tory and another league title. "It was the turning point of the match,” Kannapolis coach Ron Byerly said. "If we win there and at 160, we could have taken the match. I felt like we were as close this year as we’ve been to beating Davie.” Byerly is wondering what he has to do to win a title. This is the third straight season that his team only lost once - each time to Davie. “Kannapolis has a good team, but we're finally in the groove,” Davie coach Buddy Lowery said. “Until tonight, I hadn’t thought we wrestled well. But this was our best match of the season.” Mann was losing 9-3 in the second period and had been put on his back three times. "I Just made a mistake of trying to muscle him,” the sophomore said. “Coach is always getting on me about that.” But it ended up being a mus cle move that turned the match around. "It’s called the ’Wizard.’ an upper body strength move that I’ve used since the eighth grade," Mann said. "I wa.s nervous at prac tice yesterday and I was nervous tonight. I’m Just glad I won." Even with the 16-point lead, Davie was far from victory. Todd Kiger was pinned at 152 and then Tim Smith had Erik Blankenship down 5-2 at 160. But Smith, one of Kannapolis’ top wrestlers, slammed Blankenship, injuring his back. When he couldn’t continue. Smith was disqualified, giving Davie a 31-15 edge. "I think Smith would have won his match,” Byerly said. "You take that one and the match at 145 and who knows’? But the official made a good call.” After Marty Martin lost by technical fall for a 31-19 score, Kendall Chaffin wrapped up the match with a 6-5 win at 189. He did it with a three-point near-fall at the third-period buzzer. f Chris Evan.s capped things with a win over Pat Moore at heavy weight. Moore was disqualified after four stalling calls, giving him his first loss after 10 wins. "Moore is the best heavyweight around for the first three minutes,” Byerly said. "But he gets tired. If he can’t put hi.s man away af ter that, he'.s in trouble. Davie’.s stamina, esp>ecially in the upper weights, is a key for them. They have real strong guys who can win the match in the second and third periods while we are getting tired,” Davie (9-0 overall, 5-0 CPC) Jumped out to a 13-0 lead as Craig Reavis, Brad Foster and Scott Beauchamp racked up impressive victories. Davie’s first loss came at 125, where Michael Merlin fell 10-6. Like Mann, Scott Page found himself on his back early and trailed 4-2 at 130. But he suddenly rolled his man and recorded a pin for a 19-6 lead. David Streit lost a decision at 1 35, and in pterhaps the most exciting rpatch of the night. Chuck Parker lost 16-15, setting up Mann’s rescue act at 145. .Most of the wrestlers were surprised the final was lopsided. "We were expecting a tougher time." Merlin said. "We felt it would be something like a three- point match. We weren’t counting on 40-19." Foster, who upped his record to 21-0, said the team was prepared for Kannapolis after a string of easy CPC wins. "Our biggest tests have come in tournaments,” the sophomore sensation said. “But everybody was really pumped for this one because we knew Kannapolis was good. They deserve their ranking. But we deserve ours, too.” Notes: Coming in, Davie wa.s ranked second in the state and Kannapxrlis fourth in Mat News. ... Mann remained undefeated at 12-0-1. ... Evans improved to 17-1 and Beauchamp to 19-2.... Smith’s loss at 160 was his first after 14 wins. "That’s a tough way to lose your first match,” Byerly s^id.

Publish 05/07. 05/14, 05/21,05/28 Starting kindergarten is a major milestone in a child’s life, and there are important steps parents can take to make the transition an ex citing one. In-person kindergarten registration has been post- fx)ned, but online registra tion is available now. To begin the enrollment pro cess and avoid lines in the computer lab in August, complete online enroll ment at http:Uciavie.kI2. nc .us/district/departments/ instructional/preschool/kin- dergarten-orientation/. If you have trouble or do not have access to reg ister online, call your local school for help. “We are committed to helping guide you through this process and transition into public schools.” said DCS Superintendent Jeff Wallace, “We would love to hear from you and get your contact information over the phone so that when our school opens we can bring you in to help you with the registration process. “DCS staff members, in partnership with parents, are committed to ensuring that every child is engaged in extraordinary learning opportunities that stir cre ativity, cultivate thinking, enhance physical and men tal well-being, and optimize the whole learning experi ence. Enrolling a child in a new school can be burden some, but we hope this in formation will be helpful,” Wallace said. When the .school.s are able to reopen for parents and student.s, there will be an opportunity planned for parents and their child to meet kindergarten teachers, administration, and support staff. They can hear about the educational programs offered for their child, sign up for their school’s kinder garten screening, and take a tour of their new school. Peggy Nuckolls, direc tor of preschool services for Davie County Schools, shared the importance of the kindergarten tour and screening and encouraged parents to sign up. “A tour of the school is helpful to get your child involved in the transition process and allow them to become familiar with the school they will be attend ing. This opportunity will allow your child to walk through the hallways of their new school, visit a kin dergarten classroom, cafete ria, and media center. “We will conduct a kin dergarten screening because it i.s helpful to kindergarten teachers and school ad ministration to get to know your child and determine whether any additional classroom support may be needed,” she said. “Kinder garten screenings are also a great way to familiarize your child with his/her new school and gives staff an other opportunity to meet your child.” Stephanie Nelson, a col laborative teacher through the DavieLEADS program who i.s bridging the gap between preschool and kin dergarten, helped explain the DIAL screening expec tations. A prospective kindergar ten teacher will assess your child in the following areas; • Motor Skills: Motor skills are related to cogni tive development and the ability to perform a num ber of large and small mus cle tasks such as hopping, throwing, building, cutting, and writing their name. • Concepts: Concept.s are the building blocks of knowledge that allow chil dren to organize and cat egorize information. Thi.s include.s naming body parts, objects, counting, and sort ing shapes. • Language; Language is integral to emotional, so cial, and cognitive develop ment. Language i.s critical across the curriculum. This piece focuses on personal information such as name and birthdate, rhyming, and answering simple prob lem-solving questions. • Self- Help and So cial-Emotional Develop ment; These portions of the DlAL-4 screening are com pleted by a parent/guardian. You will be given the oppor tunity to answer questions about your child’.s daily liv ing skills and the skills your child has for building suc cessful relationships with other.s. She reassures parents that the DIAL-4 is not an intelli gence test, or diagnostic test and is not pass/fail so it does not determine whether your child goe.s to kindergarten or not. “Parents are urged to reg ister for the DIAL-4 screen ing because the result.s are being used to help measure kindergarten readines.s a.s part of the DavieLEADS initiative to increase kinder garten readines.s and to in crease the percentage of stu dents reading proficiently by the end of third grade," said Nelson. The following documents are required to be submitted to your school by the state to complete your child’s registration. Present this in formation to the elementary school in your attendance zone after registering on line. • Proof of age (a certified birth certificate); must be 5 on or before Aug. 31. • Proof of Davie residen cy (power bill, water bill). • Parent/guardian driver's license (or another accept able photo ID). • Health Assessment Form must be completed by parent/guardian and medi cal provider. The physical cannot be prior to Aug. 27, 2019). • Record of required im munizations. Most children receive immunizations at their 5-year-old check up. Turn this information in following the appoint ment or before the first day of school. If your child's 5-year-old check-up is after the first day of school, protif is required of an appoint ment stating one ha.s been scheduled. Direct questions to the el ementary school. The public will get further notifications on DIAL screening opfxir- tunities and person-to-per- son registration events: Cooleemee Elementary, 336-284-258 I; Comatzer Elementary, 336- 940-5097; Mocksville Elementary, 336-751-2740; Pinebrook Elementary, 336-998-3868; Shady Grove Elementary, 336-998-4719; William R. Davie Elementary, 336-492- 5421. “We hope you have a smooth transition into our schools and we wish you positive experiences a.s we work together to ensure your child’s success,” said Wallace.

The total number of cases since reporting began in Davie are 37, according to the Davie County Health Department. The number increased by six over the past week. Of those 37 cases, eight re mained sick as of Monday. A total of 27 met the criteria to be released from isolation. Two died. Those 37 cases include 10 who are age 65 or older, 1 1 age 50-64, 10 age 25-49 four age 18-24 and two age 17 or younger. The advice from Health Di rector Suzanne Wright remains the same. Stay at home if pos sible, wear a face covering in public, stay six feet apart, wash your hands and use sanitizer often - and never leave home if you feel sick. If you have COVID-19, stay in isolation for at least 10 days after the first sympton and three days after symptoms are gone and you don’t have a fever without fever-reducing medications. As the county re-op)ens, Wright said the department will focus more on contact tracing and testing. Vulnerable piopula- tions are being tested now.

DAVIE COUNTY 336-751-6238 Fighting homeiessness Family Promise of Davie part of pilot program to help keep families housed By Jeanna Baxter White Word Master Media Group for Family Promise of Davie County Kenyal Braswell and her sons (from left) Nasir, Kyle, Khalil were Family Promise of Davie County’s first fami ly - Photo by Kathy Miller Kenyal Braswell was scared. She and her three young sons under the age of 3 were home less, with nowhere to go. fol lowing a divorce. Then a local assistance agen cy referred her to a new pro gram, Family Promise of Da vie County, and suddenly there was hope. Established in September 2017, Family Promise (FPDC) serves families with children who are experiencing home lessness. Its core program is the Interfaith Hospitality Net work or shelter program, as it is referred to locally, which is made up of more than 600 volunteers and 23 faith groups across the county. Once families apply and have been accepted, they stay at a host congregation for one week at a time before moving to the next church. Volunteers provide families with hospital ity and meals. During the day families are shuttled to the day cen ter where they have access to Wi-Fi, computers, telephones, showers, and laundry facilities. Families receive assistance in finding housing, job skills training, Hnancial management courses, and connection with other local resources. FPDC Executive Director Lisa Foster remembers well her first meeting with Braswell. "I don’t know who was more nervous, her or me," Foster said. “Kenyal and her sons were our first family and I was the only staff member. We learned so much together about how to do this, what works for people, and what doesn’t. Her youngest boys took their first steps at one of our host con gregations and now they are in pre-k. Her oldest will be starting kindergarten next year which just seems crazy. It’s been really cool becoming a part of her family,” After 51 dpys in the pro gram. Braswell and her sons graduated and transitioned into their own home. She continued to receive support for the first year through the Fresh Start program which provides fami lies with resources for financial assistance, furniture, house hold goods, and mentoring so that they start off on the right foot. “It can be really hard for families transitioning out of homelessness to maintain their housing in the first year," Fos ter said. “That’s why we pro vide our continued support and really try to help our families understand what resources are available to them and how to advocate for themselves so that they can continue to provide for their families." Grateful for that support, Braswell is now one of the program’s biggest advocates. “There is no better family than Family Promise. I’ve come to look at every volunteer and ev ery sta.ff person as an extension of my family.” Please See Families - Page 4 7b be a Sponsor on this page please email: ray.tutterow@davie-enterprise.com DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 14, 2020 - 32 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 14, 2020 Editorial Page Question of In The Mail the day: wear a mask or not? To wear a mask or not wear a mask? That is the question. While volunteering at a plant sale Saturday, it was appropriate for me to wear a mask since I would be within six feet of some people. So I did. It sucked. Admittedly, my mask isn’t of the highest quality, but it does its duty, keeping all those nasty germs that hide in my mouth and nose from spewing out into the world. You’re welcome, world. It also protected me from all those nasty germs (And believe me, they are much worse than mine.) that came spewing from other folks’ mouths. Pay attention to someone talking without a mask, some times you can witness the spittle coming out of their mouths when they talk. I witnessed just that on Sat urday. Thank goodness for that mask, coronavirus or not. The mask really didn’t bother me much, until ... I started to breathe. It was cold Saturday morning. My breath is hot (No jokes here.). My glasses instantly became covered in a fog. Talking made it worse. I was told you need a mask that cinches around the nose to prevent this from happening. Others said that didn’t work for them, their glasses still became foggy. Normally, I wear contact lenses most of the time. Since the coronavirus, I’ve been wearing my glasses. In my way of thinking, having on glasses may pre vent something from making it into my eye, traveling to my lungs and testing the little strength I have left. But Saturday went fine. I learned to adjust the mask so it wouldn’t fog as badly, and how to politely step back to make an adjustment so I could see who I was talking to, or what plant I was trying to identify. So, right now, wearing a mask is an off and on proposition for me. If I’m at a place where masks are expected or required or where there are likely to be people more vulnerable to the coronavirus, certainly the mask will go on. If I’m somewhere that is filled with healthy looking people without masks. I’m more likely to leave mine in the truck. That doesn’t mean the hand sanitizer doesn’t get rubbed all over my hands and face before and after leaving the truck, but the mask stays back. I admire people who wear their masks all of the time. You are the ones doing what we should all be doing. No one should ever question your reasons or sanity. You’re doing the right thing. To those of you who refuse to wear a mask at any time, shame on you. I know it’s hard to believe things are as bad as our governments say, but they are work ing from knowledge of how a virus spreads. They surely don’t know enough about this virus yet, but they all are spread the same way, and the measures being taken now are for our own good. Yes, I’m a fence sitter when it comes to opening up the economy again, or in other words, allowing restaurants, salons, gyms and other places to re-open. Officials don’t know how many people would get sick if a total re-opening would take place. They also don’t know how many people would get sick if we continue with the current measures. Sure, there are a lot of folks out there - doctors, hospital workers and emergency workers - who claim to know reasons why we should re-open or remain closed - but those people are just spouting their opinions - mostly on Facebook, where honest to goodness, people will believe any thing. People really do want to have what they feel in their gut verified by someone, and they’ll believe it on Facebook, whether there’s any truth to it or not. It drives me crazy. But that’s another story. For another time. Now, I’m going home. No mask required. Expecially because it would get in the way of my favorite pasttime. - Mike Bamhardt Check owners before adopting pets To the editor: Recently it was announced that the Humane Society of Davie County had received an opportunity to move from a 20x20 office into a 5,000 square foot facility. This was such fantastic news. Then, Davie County Animal Shelter announced it was cutting ties with HSDC. Why? Why would they cut ties when they have working so well together to get their save rate to 93%? That's an incredible number. The women at HSDC have been working tirelessly fos tering, transporting and making beautiful matches. DCAS wants to return to same-day adoptions. This is the worst practice for any facility or rescue grqup to use. Do you adopt a child without checking the family out first? No, so why would an animal be any different? They are just as helpless if not more without a voice. Handing over an ani mal to someone because they seem nice is just not enough. Ted Bundy was nice and look what happened there. HSDC genuinely cares about the animals in their care and that’s why they are moving. That's why they don't do same day adoptions. Someone brought up how they got the building they are in. Who cares? That's irrelevant at this point. It's about the animals - the homeless animals that humans have already failed once, some more than once. Doesn't DCAC want to be the place where all that stops? HSDC doe.s and I'll tell you from what I know what they are doing is working. I applaud the folks of rescue organi zations but to say because HSDC has slowed down adop tions because they have changed their policies to me your saying you want them out the door and you don't care where they go. Geralyn Kelly, Lewisville Keep the working partnership To the editor: We urge Sheriff Hartman and Davie County Animal Control to accept the Humane Society of Davie County’s proposal to continue serving as the primary adoption arm for our county. The Humane Society of Davie County ha.s fought hard for years to win second chances at life for countless animals in the care of animal control. In fact, animal control’s partnership with the humane society has increased the former’s save rate to 93 percent. Ultimately, the termination of this partnership will amount to the need less termination of animal lives. Money cannot be used to justify this termination; the humane society is supported by fundraising events, not taxpayer money. To allow this termination is to judge the lives of innocent animals as less valuable than the presumably small effort it would take to sustain an already established partnership. To allow this termination is to rob years of quality life from the commu nity’s animal.s and to rob wonderful companions from the families that would have adopted them. Members of our community should be especially dis turbed to hear that multiple volunteers from Davie County Animal Control have voiced concerns about the treatment of animals at their facilities. These volunteers have wit nessed animals not being walked, sitting in unclean cages, and lacking the standard level of care required by state law. Not only does the humane society of Davie County work to advocate for the humane treatment of the animals in kennel facilities, but the organization also promotes the transfer of animals to approved foster homes. These foster homes provide less stressful environments in which animals can await adoption and reduce the burden of animal.s on the kennel facilities, furthermore reducing the risk of disease transmission among animals. The Humane Society of Da vie’s emphasis on foster homes also crucially improves the success rate of adoptions by allowing potential adopters to meet animals in relaxed domestic contexts, showcas ing more authentic versions of animals’ personalities. Thi.s foster system thus improves the living conditions of ani mals and saves taxpayer money by decreasing the burden on kennel facilities and reducing return rates of adopted animeds. The benefits of the humane society’s system in partnership with animal control have even been explicitly endorsed by the animal control director, Lisa Nielsen, in the Davie County Enterprise. Nielson wrote that the part nership with the humane society “worked really well be cause [the organizations] each do what [they] do best, with animal services getting the pets healthy and ready to be adopted, and the humane society marketing the pets and getting them adopted.” This termination will reverse the sizable progress that our county has made in decreasing the number of innocent animal lives we lose each year. If we as a community allow this termination, we must be able to accept responsibility for the cost it will demand in the currency of animal lives. We hope you will join us in refusing to accept this cost. Sarah Perkins, Mocksville Don’t unnecessarily re-invent the wheel To the editor: I truly hope that Davie County Animal Control allows the Humane Society of Davie County (HSDC) to do the adoptions for our county shelter. It was great news that a local family gave the humane society a “can’t pass up” op portunity of a building where HSDC can help even more animals and allow volunteers to come in and do more as well. Why don’t you continue the momentum of saving 93% of the animals that come through the Davie shelter by keeping the partnership going with the humane society focusing on adoptions while animal control handles intakes of the animals? The Humane Society of Davie County staff and vol unteers help 365 days a year and all hours of the day. I know they even were out there on Christma.s day and other holidays when most people are spending time with their families. They truly care. The level of effort and due dili gence they put into each and every adoption is commend able. They raise money to properly vet the animals when animal control can not afford to do so. As a taxpayer, I ap preciate that one. I also appreciate knowing that they don’t hand over an animal without assessing its personality and matching the right dog or cat up with the perfect family. It’s not a week commitment. The animal will live at least 15 years in most cases. Thi.s shouldn't be a flippant decision because you feel bad for an animal in a shelter environment or your child wants a cute puppy for a birthday. It requires thoughtful planning and consideration. The Humane Soci ety of Davie County takes each and every family through that thought process. Sheriff Hartman and Davie County Animal Control — please reconsider this decision. The constituents of Davie county think.s it’s being done right currently. We don't want to see the wheel reinvented unnecesisarily. The Hu mane Society of Davie County needs to remain the primary adoption agency for the shelter animals.

Where Are They Now? Samantha James Joyner enjoys small communities The Davie Community Foundation is sharing a continu ation of the “Where Are They Now?" series about former scholars and things they are accomplishing. By Madison Hartness Davie Community Foundation Samantha James Joyner, former Roy and Ruth Eldridge scholarship recipient, earned her bachelor’s degree in health and exercise science from Wake Forest University in 2013. Her time at Wake Forest wa.s filled with involve ment in Intervarsity Christian Fellowship, RUF (Reformed University Fellowship), and the Screamin' Demons, a club that support.s athletic programs. Samantha was also a resi dent advisor during her junior and senior years, serving a.s a mentor to student.s and a resource to help first year stu dents adjust to college life. Being a student at Wake Forest taught Samantha disci pline and time management skills. She wouldn’t trade the memories or friends made for the world, but after four years, Samantha wa.s ready for a break. Following gradua tion she worked a few jobs, before taking additional classes at Winston-Salem State University and applying to physi cal therapy school. During her freshman year at Wake Samantha met Colby Joyner. They got married in October of 2015 and moved to Charlotte, for Colby to begin his career a.s a physician as sistant. Samantha began physical therapy school at Wing ate University in January 2017. Today she i.s a licensed physical therapist having passed her national physical ther apy exam in February 2020. Because of the coronavirus. Samantha’.s search for a job has been put on hold but she hopes to work in a hospital setting or with the elderly in a skilled nursing facility. For years, Samantha has been working toward becoming a physical therapist. After achieving that goal, she i.s ex cited to begin her career and help others in a way she loves. She finds working a.s a physical therapist to be rewarding because she is able to help others regain function and aid them in returning to normal life. Although Davie County is not Samantha’s place of resi dence, she still calks it home and visits her family here regu larly. Her upbringing produced a love and passion for small communities. Her memories of cheering at Pinebrook and North Davie, numerou.s clubs, Mrs, Allen’.s allied health classes, and football games are memories that she looks back on fondly. The wonderful teachers she learned from impacted her life and helped her become the woman she is today. Her advice to today’.s high school seniors is, “Enjoy ev ery second and remember that God ha.s a beautiful plan for your life. Your future might not play out exactly how you’re picturing right now, but I know that you’ll get to where you’re supposed to be in His perfect timing. You aren’t racing your peers to some imaginary finish line so alway.s encourage your friends, cheer them on in their vic tories, console them in their failures, and remember that you’re all exactly where you’re supposed to be at any given moment.’’ The Literary Corner: Renegade Writer’s Guild DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRIZEltECORD USPS 149-160 171 S.

POSTMASTER Send Address Changes to: Davie County Enterprise Record P.O. Box 99, Mocksville, NC 27028 To the editor: The Humane Society of Davie County (HSDC) needs to Sheriff should re-consider To the editor: I really hope this decision to allow animal control to adopt out animals instead of the Humane Society of Davie County is reconsidered by Sheriff Hartman. I was proud of our county working together as a team to get this accomplished. What a standard we have set that we could be proud of. I couldn’t have agreed more with the article in the Davie Enterprise, where the animal con trol director, Lisa Nielsen, said how well the partnership worked. It leaves us wondering why animal control has decided they would like to accomplish both responsibili ties now when it has worked so well. A 93% save rate with the Humane Society of Davie County focusing on adop tions is incredible. The amount of volunteers they have that help make this possible has reduced financial burden on the county and saved lives. Their social media marketing has raised money but also brought visibility to our county that, has never been done before. How many people remember that long and dreary ride down Eaton Road? Now these animals are show cased on social media tools. Around the state we are known for placing animals in the right home, getting them vetted properly before they go to a new family (not going home with contagious parasites, ear infections, or other medical problems that most common homes don’t assume are present). Come on animal control and Sheriff Hartman, let’s con tinue this partnership with the Humane Society of Davie County. We need you both to do what you're best suited for. Biby Wilson . Advance remain the primary adoption group for our county shelter animals. Animal control choosing to arbitrarily take back adoptions after HSDC has gotten the save rate to achieve our shelter in a no-kill status at 93% is unheard of. NC on the whole ha.s one of the highest shelter euthanasia rates in the country (being the 3rd worst). How sad that because the humane society got an amazing deal to get more room at a new facility to help that animal control who’s highest save rate was 47% in 2016 is choosing to take back this respon sibility. Animal control ha.s never been able to accomplish this on their own as the primary adopters for these shelter animals. The taxpayers have appreciated also the fundrais ing efforts of HSDC for their medical needs at $86,646 this past year. Why on earth is this happening? Sheriff Hartman, please reconsider this monumentally flawed decision that will im pact your voters and the number animals being saved in the community.

It also causes me to realize just how important teachers are to their students, not just by teaching a subject, but also a.s adults who take care of their eharge.s in many different ways. Teaching on line gives teachers and students a chance to see each other every day even though they are not together in a typical physical classroom. All of the thing.s that teachers are doing naturally bring to mind my own 30 year.s of teaching. For the first few years after graduate school, I taught English to the girks at two private colleges just for women. However, when we moved to Fayetteville in the 197O’s, 1 took a position teach ing English at a senior high school. I felt sure that I would be overwhelmed switching from a college setting to a high school, but at Pine Forest the teachers and the administra tors were very helpful and highly professional people. In no time I felt at home there and loved my job. The studenks were resjjectful and hard-working, not really what I had ex pected from student.s so different than the one.s I wa.s used to. There was a lot of talk about “Army brats,” but mine were not in that category at all. Most of them seemed to connect to me quickly a.s an authority figure, and I enjoyed all of my classes. However, as time passed, there was thi.s one sjjecial class that I still recall 40 years later, most by name. They were my last afternoon class, and we met daily for 75 minutes. We were studying American Literature, and that group seemed to especially enjoy the poet.s that we read, people like Longfellow and Dickinson, and others. Realizing their enthusiasm, I assigned them an original poem for the next Friday class. What they wrote wa.s amazing!! Each student shared his/her work with the entire class, and everyone’s poem was greeted with quiet applause. As it turned out, those student.s loved writing poems so much that we did that every week, and every Friday they shared what they had written with each other. One afternoon, Mr. Marable, one of the assistant principals, came in to do one of my observations and thereafter dropped in on several Friday afternoons!! Near the end of the year, unbeknownst to me. my stu dents typed their poems and had someone in the office run them off and put them together to make a notebook, which they presented to me at the end of the year. They titled the notebook “Class of Luck.” It was a precious gift and proof that I had made a difference in their lives and they in mine. Several years ago I shared the notebook with my son, who typed all the poems again in lovely black ink, not the purple Xerox, and made a notebook for me for Christmas. It sirs on the table in my foyer in a place of honor, and when I pass by, I think about Gwen Sykes, Beth Barnes, and sev eral others in that group and wonder if they remember me as I do them! “If My Mother Were Alive” By Stephanie Williams Dean We’d be discussing our weekly Bible studies. Mom and I would be sharing our favorite recipes. Every night before going to bed, we’d be talking on the phone and reliving the day’s events. She and I would be talking about the good books we’re reading. We’d be celebrating birthdays and holidays together - and planning big family reunions for summer. This spring, we’d be boarding a Caribbean cruise ship and going shopping on the islands. We’d be heading out on a road trip to Daytona Beach to take in the sun and surf. I’d go home more often and my stays with her would be longer. And while there, we’d bake bread to gether. She’d be my best friend. If my mother were alive, we’d be doing all those things there wa.s no more time to do. I moved out of state. Time flew by. And before I knew it, CJod had called her home. The time wa.s gone. If you are fortunate and still have time with your mother, cherish the time you have. “What Does this Reveal?” By Kevin F. Wishon “Sometimes, I think these things happen to show us something.” It’s been nearly tw'enty years since my Dad made this comment to me a few months after 9-11, I’ve thought about his statement off and on over the years. Now, with the recent situation, hi.s remark is once again resound ing in my mind. Moreover, 1 feel I’m beginning to under stand a little of what he was referring to all those years ago. For most of us, choices and distractions fill our every day lives, which cloud our minds and make finding a clear direction difficult. We struggle to focus on what is truly important in our lives, and also, what is wasting our re sources. We are blessed with a wealth of choice but cursed with the inability to see what is best for us. Thi.s is where tragedy, trials, and trauma cut.s through the obscurity and opens our eyes to what we need. It’s when reality is kick ing us hard that we wake up and see our lives with clarity. Once wide-awake from the fog of variety, our minds can focus on what is vital and dearly significant to us. The rest i.s secondary, at best. Did we really need that thing that adds no value to our lives? Did I need to attend that event I actually dislike? In the wake of difficulty, we see the value of our time and substance for what it is; limited resources that must be deployed strategically. The current situation may have forced u.s to do without something we did not think we could lack. Then to our amazement, we are shown that we really didn’t need it. In this difficulty, we may discover one more thing. It is the direction we must go. What previously had been obscured or had us indecisive is now a telescope zoomed tightly in on our intended destination. It seem.s strange and counter-intuitive that adversity can bring about such lucid ity. While tragedy accompanied by loss, sorrow, and regret is undesired, we can be grateful that amid the current trial, we are receiving clarity in our fjersonal lives. “UFOs” By David R. Moore It wa.s in the early 196()’s on the west side of the Frank lin Mountain.s of El Paso, Texas. Fine sand whipped into the sky by recent winds, colored the sky with hues of red from the setting sun. My home was part of a small neigh borhood built into the side of the mountain. Paved roads weaved through the contours of the mountain side and connected the loose subdivision. From the large kitchen window, I could view the Rio Grande River meandering through the bare valley below. The grandeur of the river was long gone. The Cabello and Elephant Butte Dams, up river, had turned the once flowing river into a small, muddy creek. Across the river, the desert hills were cluttered with adobe homes of those living in Mexico. Looking up river into New Mexico, on the northern most peak of the Juarez Mountains, the 40-foot monument of Jesus, atop Mount Christo Rey, glistened white. In the previous few weeks, UFO sighting.s had increased, but I never imagined that I would ever see a real UFO. On that late aftemcxjn, a.s if coming out of the red glow of the sun, I saw six objects flying slowly in formation. The object.s were not planes, but seemed to be large, vertically oriented, metallic cylinders that glimmered in the light ot the setting sun. My entire family hurried outside to view the unusual Sfjectacle. Since the object.s were in the sky. we could not estimate the size of these curious objects. We could distinctly see a light at the bottom of each cylinder. The next day, local TV new.s and newspapers reported hundred.s of citizens saw the alien invasion force as it flew over the city and into the desert. Those, with binoculars, claimed they even saw aliens looking out of the portholes of their huge spaceships. We were mesmerized a.s the formation became more dispersed and approached the peaks of the mountain. All crossed over the 7000-foot high peaks, save the last one which crashed into the side of the mountain above our neighborhood. It was odd that there was no explosion, fire, or sound of eruption. These desert mountains are bare of tree.s and bushes, ex cept where there may be a rare water source. Only prickly pear, barrel cactus, and yucca grow in the sandy sedimen tary and igneous rock. Being a boy, I had thoroughly ex plored the side.s of the mountain, looking for fossil.s and lizards, but had never climbed to the jagged top. For me, the upper part of the mountain had a vertical slope I wa.s not comfortable in attempting to climb. I had to investigate the crash site that was just below some distinct rock formations. Almost running, I soon passed the highest house of the subdivision and started the ascent of the mountain. Using the mountain’s rock struc tures for guidance, I knew 1 could find the area of the crash. Being tired and out of breath, I finally reached my desired destination. However. I did not find any wreckage. I care fully checked my position on the mountain and seeing my home far below. I reexamined the various rock outcrop pings and felt sure that I wa.s in the right region. I started, what I imagined, was a systematic search by exploring the area using a grid-like pattern. I eventually found a plastic bag with a balsa wood structure taped to it.s bottom opening. The remnant of a candle was in the center of the wooden support. With much disappxjint- ment, I slowly realized that unknown persons had created a small fleet of hot air balloons using plastic bags from a dry cleaner, balsa wood, and candles. Light reflecting from the setting sun gave the plastic the illusion of being metallic. I carried the evidence back to my family at home. My older brother told me he had heard the rumor that some graduating seniors were planning to prank the entire city. Well for now. I am able to say I really saw UFOs, at least until, they were not.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, .May 14, 2020 - 5 Continued From Page 1 Braswell is one of the many success stories Foster has had the joy of witness ing. Over the past three years, 20 families have graduated from the shelter program. An additional 72 families received financial assis tance through the Help Us Move In (HUMI) program which allows FPDC to fur ther prevent and end fam ily homelessness by paying past-due rent, rent deposits, and first month’s rent. Fos ter is proud of the fact that 90 percent of the families enrolled in the shelter pro gram graduate and are still self-sustaining a year later. But FPDC wanted to as sist additional families be fore they become homeless. “I know that sounds a little counter intuitive for a shelter program, but we know that no matter how hospitable our staff, vol unteers and host congrega tions are, being in a shelter is still traumatic for fami lies, kids and adults. If we can help families not have to enter into our shelter pro gram but still maintain safe housing and get into perma nent housing, then that is the best-case scenario and saves our shelter beds for those who truly have no where else to go. We want to do whatever we can to keep kids together with their families but out of the shelter system.” According to the Nation al Alliance to End Home lessness (NAEH), at least 30 percent of households seeking shelter can remain in or be placed in housing. And diversion costs are sig nificantly less than the cost of shelter, rapid rehousing, or transitional housing. Children enjoy playing the piano with a volunteer during their stay at a host church as part of the Family Promise of Davie County’s Shelter Program. Kyle, Nasi and Khalil ham it up for the photographer now that they have a home to live in. - Photos by Kathy Miller, One Shot Photography At last year’s Family Promise National Conven tion, Foster attended a ses sion about shelter diversion strategies. “It sounded re ally great but you have to have the funding to make it happen, which we didn’t have, so we kind of put a pin in it a.s something to look into if the funding be came available.” When Foster received a notice from Family Promise about a funding partnership with Synchrony, a leading consumer financial services company, to pilot a shelter diversion initiative aimed to help families combat homelessness she quickly applied. The Synchrony Founda tion had committed $ 1.2 million to support ten Fam ily Promise affiliates around the country. Each affiliate would receive virtual shel ter diversion training and $50,000 in funding, most of which will be used to di rectly help struggling fami lies, including assistance with security and utility de posits, rental arrears, trans portation, groceries, and more. At the conclusion of the year-long pilot. Family Promise would develop best practices to roll out to affili ates across the country. “The board, staff, and I saw it as the answer to our funding issue. We had no idea if we would be selected but it was certainly worth a try-” The effort paid off. Fam ily Promise of Davie Coun ty was one of the 10 Family Promise affiliates chosen to participate in Family Prom ise’s A Future Begins at Home prevention and sta bilization housing initiative. The others are Butler Coun ty (OH), South Bay (CA), Lawrence (KS), Greater Orlando (FL), Hawaii (HI), Northern New Castle Coun ty (DE), Greater Indianapo lis (IN), Greater Concord (NH), South Sarasota Coun ty (FL). “Synchrony is proud to partner with Family Prom ise to serve struggling fami lies and children, especially in this time of crisis,” said Denise Yap, Synchrony senior vice president and corporate citizenship lead er. “This will help prevent homelessness and equip families with the tools they need to achieve stability in their lives.” “During this unprece dented time. Family Prom ise’s holistic approach to the crisis of family homeless ness includes prevention, shelter, and stabilization,” says Claa.s Ehlers, Family Promise CEO. “While pro viding shelter has always been a Family Promise pri ority, it is more effective to prevent homelessness in the first place. A national diver sion program will reduce the number of families en tering the shelter system, easing the strain on the pro- FARM FRESH PORK AH Natinl No Aa-mcialM hmracHents FED BEEF BY OttDBtS OMLY - DBJVBBY MBULBBLE Jerry & Cindy Foster (336) 998-7175 , MILLER EQUIPMENT RENTAL SPRING IS HERE!

All that our affili ate has been able to accom plish in under three years is incredible and a huge testament to the Davie com munity, our volunteers, our staff, and board members.” “Davie residents and businesses have always stepped up to the plate to help those in need,” said FPDC Board Chair Lee Rollins. “FPDC is unique in that it will turn $1 in con tributions and leverage it to make $3 of impact, a great investment that is a win- win .” Foster and Valerie Wer beck, family services co ordinator, have completed the virtual shelter diversion training and hope that FPDC can launch the new program later this month. They are still learning the ins and outs of the program but are excited about the flexibility of the funds to help divert Appliance repair “Over 25 years ofexfieriencc in appliance repair" 540 Sanford Avenue Mocksville.

Foster is excited about the potential this program represent.s for helping fami lies facing homelessness. “Family Promise National is piloting this program to leam if diversion really works. It sounds great to keep families out of shelters and to get them into housing quickly but will they be able to keep that housing? We know that 90 piercent of the families who complete our shelter program are still sus taining their housing a year later. Will that be the same with the diversion program? “It’s really cool that we will be part of this national learning program. We will be participating alongside LA County which is kind of crazy when you compare it to little Davie County. We will be helping to find out what work.s across the country in big citie.s and small rural areas. There will be lots of opportunities to leam about best practices in general and I’m proud that Davie County i.s going to be a part of it.” Leam more about Family Promise of Davie County and how you can help at familyproinisedc.org or call Lisa Foster at (336) 284- 4200.

Grandfather Clock Service & Repair Grant Wood apprenticed with his own grandfather Grant Wood owes all he knows about grandfather clock repairs to his own grandfather. Grant Clark. Wood’s Grandfather Was His Teacher “Repairing grandfather clocks was one of my grandfa ther’s many side jobs for 20 years plus, remembered Grant. “One day he asked me if I would like to do this with him. So from around my senior year in high school and all through my college years, I was his apprentice.” Grant has now been on his own for about six years. Grandfather Clocks Passed Down Generations He makes house calls for repairs and also moves clocks for folks who may be relocating. His shop hours are by appointment only. Grant mentioned that most of the grandfather clocks he repairs are family heirlooms that have been passed down from generation to generation. “One of the oldest grandfather clocks I have worked on was dated back to the 185O’s to 186O’s,” Grant said. “I got a call from a guy in Salisbury and the clock was just laying in a storage unit and had quit running. I did some work on it and got it running again.” » /. The most common problem that occurs with grandfa ther clocks is owners hot having their clocks serviced regularly. Grandfather Clocks Should Be Serviced Regularly “I recommend a grandfather clock be serviced every three years. There is a lot of wear that goes in with the steel and brass components in the clock that needs lubrication and service.” I asked Grant what the most expensive grandfather clock that he has worked on was and he said $5,000 plus. “Sometimes it’s hard to put a retail value on pre 1900 clocks but I have definitely worked on some expensive clocks,” Grant said. “Sometimes folks find grandfather clocks at estate sales and think they have found a gem but a lot of the time it just turns out to be worth about what they paid for it at the estate sale.” Shop Location and Phone Number Grant said it usually takes him around an hour to service or repair a grandfather clock. His shop is located at 1291 Peoples Creek Road in Advance. Grant can be reached at (336) 251-3655. f L.

At right, he high-fives Seth Grooms. Davie quarterback has 21 college offers By Brian Pitts Davie Enterprise Record Nate Hampton showed flashes of his vast potential as a 2018 sophomore. Last year he made the leap from budding star to true stardom, setting a slew of quar terbacking records while helping Davie’s football team to its first winning season in three years. The scouts have certainly no ticed. Since May 2019, college recruiters have been buzzing his phone nonstop. He’s picked up 21 Division-I scholarship offers in that span, making him the most sought-after QB in Davie annals. The 21 schools; West Virginia, Florida Atlantic, Char lotte, Akron, Liberty, Marshall, Vanderbilt, Old Dominion, Ken tucky, UAB, Appalachian State, Coastal Carolina, Kent State, UConn. Dartmouth, Toledo, Yale, Penn, Bowling Green, Western Kentucky and Princeton. The coronavirus pandemic has drastically altered the recruiting game. Everything is being done via smartphone/intemet. “Tm trying to get a feel for all the coaches,” he said. "What they’re saying, who’s been true this whole process and who’s been wishy washy. It’s more about the coaches and building a relationship with them and under standing what they’re about and their values. And then I’ve been seeing campus through virtual tours. But it’s difficult to elimi nate schools when you’ve never been there and never seen it. "I’m trying to shorten my list and really get it narrowed down. But it is pretty tough not being able to see it live and meet the people face to face. I’m doing a lot of Facetimes and Zoom calls. That’s about all I can do.” Hampton will turn 18 on Aug, 26. He will announce his college commitment on his birthday. "Do I want to drop down to a top eight, then go with top five and then commit?” he said. "I think it’ll be a family choice in what we decide on. But right now it’s still up in the air.” At 6-6 and 230 pounds, Hamp ton is a specimen. When he’s not slinging the pig, he’s a hard- nosed running threat who doesn’t mind bone-jarring hits. He comes from an exceedingly athletic fam ily. Sister Ashlyn is a 6-1 forward and rising senior for Campbell women’s basketball. Brother Peyton is a 6-1,226-pound line backer and rising junior at Army. Last fall Nate helped the War Eagles to 7-6 and 3-2 in the conference, tying for second and reaching the second round of the playoffs. He completed 263 of 437 passes, both school records. The .601 completion percentage resulted in 3,295 yards, another record. He tossed 22 TDs. Among his single-season re cords was nine 2OO-yard passing games. He owns the top three spots for single-game comple tions (3 1 twice and 30 once). He already holds the career record for 300-yard passing games (live). In other career marks, he's third in completions (387) and passing yards (4,712) and fourth in TD passes (30). The COVID-19 shutdown has not been fun for sports fans. At least it’s easy to maintain social distancing while throwing passes. “I’m trying to throw regular ly with my receivers,” he said. "We usually go throw 2-3 times a week. One day Td go throw with Tate (Carney) and two tight end.s from Wake Forest. Another day it will be Jack (Reynolds). And then another day it would be Caleb (Bowling), our strong safety, and Za'Haree (Maddox). So we're still getting in rep.s and getting a feel for everything. We've been going through the route tree and talking about this season. We don't have anything too new offen.sively. So it's pretty much doing the same thing we did last year, just at a higher level. "I’ve also I>een in all kinds of Zoom calls with different college coaches. I think that’s keeping me sharp as well by learning the different offenses and seeing how these coaches do it as well. And I think the game is really going to slow down a lot for me this next year, and I think we will have a really successful season as a team.” Oct. 11, 2007: Girls savor first tennis title By Brian Pitts Davie Enterprise Record One week the Davie girls tennis team was feeling sorry for itself. It could taste sole possession of first place in the Central Piedmont Conference before losing 6-3 to Mt. Tabor and 5-4 to Reynolds. The hard fall dropped Davie from alone in first to second, one win behind Tabor. The next week Davie was feeling marvelous. West Forsyth pulled off an unlikely 5-3 win over Tabor, the War Eagles took care of business against North Forsyth and North Davidson and the reg ular season ended with Davie and Tabor sharing the championship with CPC record.s of 8-2. It’s a significant achievement for the War Eagles, who had been chasing the CPC pot of gold since joining the league in 1985. It marks their first conference title since 1977, when they won the North Piedmont Conference. They were CPC bridesmaids in 1987. 2(X) 1,2(X)2, 2(X)3 and 2tX)4.

Clement St. • Mocksville, NC 27028 www.inocksvillenc.org May 15 1997 War Eagle golfers go from fourth to first in one afternoon Editor's note: At a time when sports are shut down by the COVID-19 pandemic, we take a look at some memorable moments in Davie County sports history. By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record In one of the most stunning conference championships in Davie High history, the War Eagle golf team soared from fourth place to the first place in one afternoon and captured its first title in 10 years. Before the Central Piedmont Conference Tournament at Oak Valley, the top four teams in the standings looked like this: Mt. Tabor 1091, Reynolds 1092, West Forsyth 1 lOO, Davie 1102. When the day ended, the top four in the standings were Davie 1409, West Forsyth 1411, Tabor 1419, Reynolds 1419. Led by Sean Boyd’s 1-under 71, Davie shot 19-over 307 and won the doggone thing, outscoring West (311), Reynolds (327) and Tabor (328). As electrifying as Boyd’s score was, it was actually a ho-hum effort by the senior, who captured his third straight individual crown, beating runner-up Jason Harris of West Forsyth by six strokes. "Sean did a wonderful job,” coach David Rondestvedt said. “It all came together for him.” As you would expect, Chris Tomei was next for Davie at 74. He is a two-time CPC Tournament medalist. “I was really happy with Chris, who had been in sort of a slump,” the first-year coach said. “It was kind of funny. He came in, gave me his scorecard and said: ‘You’re welcome. I shot 2-over.’ I was really happy with his performance.” James Stewart (79) and Gary Bialobreski (83) answered the bell as Davie’s title drought came to an unlikely end. Stewart is a freshman who didn’t adopt the sport until the spring of 1996. "James came through with a solid round,” Rondestvedt said. "He’s done real well for us and has only been playing 11 months. His dad (James) has been working with him. .-se------------------------------------------------------------is------------------------------------------------- Sean Boyd, coach David Rondestvedt and Will Hege. “Gary actually played better than the score indicated. He said he was hitting the ball pretty good.” There was serious drama at the end. With Davie’s scores in the books. West had a group finishing up. "If (West’s Ray Bell) came in with a 79, they would have tied us,” Rondestvedt said. Davie clinched when Bell turned in an 81. "Bell was capable of shooting below 80,” Boyd said. "Another key was James, Tomei and I birdied our last hole. That was three strokes. If it wasn’t for that, we wouldn’t have won.” Notes; Davie (39.13), West (39.19), Tabor (39.41), Reynolds (39.41) and South Stokes (39.63) all averaged in the 30s. "All the coaches were saying this is the tightest race they have ever seen,” Rondestvedt said. ... Tomei, who averaged 38.25 per nine holes, fin ished sixth in the CPC. ... Boyd, Tomei, Stewart, Bialobreski, Kyle Keepers and Shawn Brooks qualified for the regional. ... Davie’s triumph revived memories of the early days, when it won 10 straight North Piedmont Conference titles from 1975-84 and 11 in 13 years when counting a CPC championship in 1987. ----------------a-------------------------------------------------------------------------if--------------------------- one match like that. But it worked out," said a relieved and overjoyed coach Sandra Boyette. "I wa.s shocked to read (West’s 5-3 win over Tabor) in the paper. When we got back from North Davidson, I Please See 2007- Page B3 Too early to name date for return of sports Members of the N.C. High Schtxjl Athletic .Association made several deeision.s at it.s spring meeting. "The board of directors dis cussed the COVID-19 crisis at length," NCHS.AA Commissioner Que Tucker said. "We remind our schools, coaches and teams that we are acting as if we are in a dead period for all in-person activities. These restrictions remain in place until further notice. Virtual com munication and activitie.s to main tain relationship.s within teams is encouraged, but no in-pterson activities are permitted. "We understand that many peo ple are interested in how schools and teams can get back to work outs, practices and competition. It is premature to speculate on a return date and whether or not the fall season will be impacted by COVID-19. We will continue to listen to the advice and mandates of our state’s governor. Depart ment of Health and Human Ser vices, and medical advisors to in form our decisions going forward. "Any decision made by the board of directors and staff at a future date will be guided by those sources of information, erring on the side of health and safety. We will do our part to ensure health and safety for all of our athletes, coaches and communities,” he said. 7b be a Sponsor on this page please email: ray.tutterow@davie-enterprlse.com MHH DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 14, 2020 - B3B2 - DAVIE COUIVTY EIVTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 14, 2020 B & B Tax Preparation Service 36 Robinhood Qrde, Winston-Selem, NC ACCOMMODATING HOURS TO FIT YOUR BUSY SCHEDULE Contact Barbara or Buddy Hutchins to schedule an appointment (336) 345-5877 (336) 4*16-8174 BlackSmd Company Santi, Gfwa!& I oocfjllafiwinfr “S/ne* lasr" Residential & Commercial Mark A Cindy Shotrf, Ownars Maodns-VtUay 7:30-5:30 • Saturday 8:00-3KM) PICK UP OR DELIVERY 745 W. demnocKviDc Road • Winstoo-Salon, NC www.blacksaDdco-com (336) 788-6411 30 Printing 336-753-2102 CSMACHINEWORKSCOM 157 DEPOT ST. - MOCKSVILXE, NC DAVIE NURSING & REHABILITATION CENTER 498 Madison Rd. | Mocksville, NC 336-751-3535 inquire today about our NEW State-of-the-artfacility that will offer Sbort-Tenn Rehab, Respite & Private tav Suites. 5aberheaith.com iSpath 140 N.

Aaron York Mocksville, NC Scotty Spry won the state at 119 as a sophomore. Feb. 25, 1993 Spry, Wared capture state wrestling titles By Ronnie Gallagher Enterprise Record Davie wrestling coach Buddy Lowery and assis tant Matt Wilson walked to the center of the Greens boro Coliseum for the 4-A, ll9-pound championship match, which featured Da vie sophomore Scotty Spry. Lowery looked out at Spry and then turned to Wil son. “He's chewing gum,” marveled Lowery. Later, Lowery said: “He wasn’t worried a bit. I don’t know how a sophomore can stay that calm. Me and coach Wilson were more nervous.” Spry scored three third-period points to defeat South View’s Tim Chapman 3-1, taking the first of what Lowery hope.s is three state titles. A few minutes later, he watched senior Jon Ward defeat Freedom’s Patrick Abernathy at 130, making Davie the only 4-A par ticipant to have two state champions. Ward said he wa.s wres tling as much for the team as he wa.s for himself. He needed to win to keep the War Eagles in second place in the overall scoring, just ahead of East Gaston. “Coach Lowery told me we were up one and if I pin, we're runner-up, so hit a spadle (wrestling move),’’ Ward said. “When I got it, I thought about that. I thought I had him (pinned). Mom’s got it on tape and he looked pretty flat.” Ward didn’t get the pin, but the 11 -7 decision helped Davie finish with 60 points, one ahead of E. Gaston. Anson County won the team title with 82.5. James Coulston, Davie’s other 3O-win senior, lost in the semifinaks to New Hanover's Ian Holliday and then fell to Cary’s Denni.s Stanley in the consolation finals, finishing fourth. The only other wres tler to win for Davie was 145-[xiund sophomore Mark Mason, who pinned Matt Price of West Mecklenburg in the first round before losing two straight. “He had a good year just to get here,” Lowery said of Mason, who finished 19-8. “He found out what it’s like." Seniors Benjy Frye (140) and Brad Groce (189) bowed out after two matches. “Just to get this far is an accomplishment,” Lowery said. Spry’s Road To Victory Spry may have looked calm, but going into the third period of his title match. Chapman led 1-0. “We had already put him on his back early and didn’t get the points,” Lowery scoffed. “When the third period started, I just told him to move. Good things happen if you move.” Spry chose bottom and V almost immediately got an escape to tie the match. A takedown gave him the winning point.s. “He was a real good defensive wrestler,” Spry said. “It was hard to get a takedown.” Some felt Spry wouldn’t even make it to the finals, considering E. Gaston se nior Cain Beard awaited him in the semifinals. They had met twice this season in ear lier tournaments, with Cain winning 4-3 and Spry taking the second matchup 7-2. "He told me he’d see me in the finals,” Spry said with a smile. Their third meeting came a match earlier and Spry dominated Beard 5-0. "I scored on easy takedowns,” Spry said. Lowery chuckled when told of Spry’s low-key de meanor. "He doesn't get excited," Lowery said with a shrug. “He’s going to do what he’s got to do to win. I'm not surprised. He’s beat en good people all year. He's paid his dues. He’s been in freestyle tournaments from here to Missouri.” Ward: One At A Time With every match of the state tournament. Ward re minded himself of last year, when he admitted to looking ahead to the finals, only to lose in the semifinaks to Pinecrest’s Andy McMillen. Hi.s semifinal opponent this year: McMillen. “1 wa.s looking at that as the finals” Ward said. "1 was worried about McMillen. He’s real quick. He could take me down practically any time. He was taking me down and letting me up.’’ Still, Ward produced four back points. McMillen tied it and wa.s on top to start the third period. “He let me go right off the gun,” Ward said of the strategy that gave him a 5-4 lead. But McMillen couldn’t get another takedown. “I just basically blocked him off and stalled,” Ward said. The final against Ab ernathy was anti-climatic. Ward had defeated him in the regional the previous week in Boone, 13-2. Ward could have ended it quickly, but didn’t get the pin that he wanted. "That boy was stuck,” Lowery said. Abernathy finally got out of the spadle and began scoring himself. “Jon took some chances,” Lowery said. Nevertheless, Ward won his title and thu.s became one of the greatest wrestlers in Davie County history. His 35-1 record left him with a career mark of 99-7. "It feel.s great,” he said. ”I felt like I choked last year. 1 did it as much for (Lowery) and coach Wilson a.s I did for me. The state title is a.s much theirs as it is mine,” Coulston 4th Coulston won his first two matches by 4-2 scores, but lost to Holliday in the semis, 6-3. "He wrestled a.s well a.s he could,” Lowery said. "(Holliday) wa.s physical ly a lot bigger. It wasn’t knowledge. Coulston ha.s a.s much of that as anyone. But when you get thi.s far, everybody’.s good. It came down to strength level.” Notes: Coulston finished the year 31-3. Spry 31-2, Frye 28-9 and Groce 25-9. ... Ward'.s only loss came to E. Gaston’s Darrell Stewart in an early-season tournament. Stewart won the consolation finals at 135 to place third. Laura Fraune won seven of nine doubles matches during one stretch in ‘07. 2007... Continued From Page BI called the (Winston-Sa lem Journal) to see if they could tell me the score. They hadn’t heard, so I got up early and read the paper. I started calling the girls at 6 (a.m.) I called (Davie Ath letic Director Mike) Absher at 6:10. Now we’ll have a playoff match (against Tabor) to see who gets the first and second seeds (for the state pla.yoffs).” The War Eagle.s blanked visiting North Forsyth 9-0, and they did it with all back ups. Elizabeth Kennedy, Laura Fraune, Kali Da vis, Brittany Roycroft and Claire Coleman rolled to easy wins, while Kennedy/ Fraune and Davis/Roycroft posted shutouts in doubles. Bailey Williams got a forfeit in singles, and Coleman/ William.s got a forfeit in doubles. The regular lineup put an 8-1 beating on host North Davidson. Lauren Hauser, Brooke Padgett, Caroline Webster, Tori Kennedy. Chelsea Davis and Lau ren Gryder won in singles, while Padgett/Webster and Gryder/C. Davis won in doubles. Notes: The War Eagles’ historic season includes the first-ever win over Ta bor and the first win over Reynolds since 1995. ... At 15-3 overall, they’ve tied the season record for win.s (1 5-5 in 2001). ... Boyette’s two-year record is 28-6. Senior Profile Catchinf’ up with ...

Mother’s Day Tribute This year we follow a tradition of recognizing a senior living and deceased mother - Mildred Cornelia Cartner Beck and the late Jeanette Smoot Foster. In 1926 Clayton Cartner and Lois Boger of County Line married and settled on the Cartner fam ily farm on Old Mocksville Road at Cartner Road. Oct. 31, 1928, was special as the couple welcomed the birth of their first child Mildred Cornelia. By 1933 Mildred had playmates Alene and Nancy. In 1934 baby broth er Richard brought both joy and sadness when he died the next day. At age of .7, Mildred experienced joy followed by heartache as her mother Lois died after the birth of brother Johnny in 1935. The family was bless ed in 1936 when Clayton 'RANDY MILLER &SONS SEPTIC TANK SERVICE 295 Miller Road • Mocksville (336) 284-2826 • We Pump Septic Tanks ■ State Certified inspector Skid Steer Work Trencher Work Hauling Septic Systems Footings .oaderwork Mildred Cartner Beck, clockwise from top left: relaxing with family on a Sunday afternoon; helping with chores on the family farm; at Har mony High; with hus band Harvey on their wedding day in 1946; and celebrating her 90th birthday with sib lings in 2018.

The cou ple even took the four kids on their honeymoon. By 1948 daughter Mildred had six more sibling.s - Carl Ray, Clinton, twins Andy and Ann, Alice, and Willa. She attended Clarksbury Meth odist with her family and attended Harmony High. Young beau Harvey Beck saw what a gem Mil dred was and married her in 1946. =The couple wel comed the births of Kathy in 1947, Tommy in 1948, and Ricky in 1952. After Harvey's retirement from electrical work, the couple settled on the Beck fami ly farm on Reavis Road in Iredell. Tragedy again struck a.s Mildred's father Clayton was killed in a tractor-farm accident. In 1999 she was saddened by the death of step-mother Mildred. Her beloved Harvey died in 2005. Then sons Tommy and Ricky died in 2010 and 2016, respectively. Being the oldest child of 11 children and being reared on a farm, Mildred learned early the value of hard work. She worked in sewing factories, clerked at WalMart, operated the can teen at Ingersoll Rand, and last worked as a sitter before her stroke in 2017. Today she enjoy.s daily trips to the Elder Center in Statesville and just hanging out with family and friends. • James Napoleon "Pole" and Mary Ester Dwiggins Smoot settled on Davie Academy Road and wel comed the birth of their first child Lois in 1915. She wa.s followed by the birth of 3 sons Bill, "Bunk", and J.C. The family worshiped at nearby Salem Methodist, and the children attended Cool Spring High School. The family was over joyed when Ester gave birth to baby daughter Mary Jea nette on May 1, 1933. She joined her family in worship at Salem and enjoyed play time with neighbors Betty Lou Griffith and Ailene Ea gle. Jeanette attended Cool Spring High; where she graduated in 1952, was vot ed senior superlative best looking, and enjoyed going to ballgames. Following graduation she began her career as school secretary and assistant to Cool Spring Principal Royd B. Madison. She remained in that posi tion till 1960. Fred Foster of Rowan was stricken by Jeanette'.s good looks and gentle spirit; the couple were married on July 2, 1955. They settled on the Foster family farm on Foster Road near Needmore Road. Although Jeanette had been a dedicated mem ber of Salem, she joined in worship at nearby South River Methodist. The year 1959 was mem orable for the couple as Jea nette gave birth to their only child Debra "Debbie" Lynn. But the year 1978 wa.s very sad for Jeanette as her father Pole died in January and her mother Ester died that September. 1981 brought happiness as she and Fred gave Debbie in marriage to Jerry David Lentz that November. After Jeanette's work at Cool Spring High, she worked at Wonder Knit till her retirement. She continued to enjoy the life time close friendship with neighbor Betty Lou Griffith (Richardson). Following a hospital stay in April 2013, Jeanette died on April 17,2013. A service celebrating her life was held at South River; she was laid to rest in the cemetery.

A large party was sched uled for April 26, but due to the pandemic, it had to be canceled. Pastor Rowan was involved in many com munity activities to include the weekly breakfast club, the Piedmont Antique Pow er Association, and more. Since the church and com munity could not give them Wanda Sutphin died on May 1. the propier "Florida Bound" send off, we thought it would be nice to send them cards to show love and ap preciation. My thanks to Nancy Modlin, member of Community Covenant, for coming up with the idea. Send a card to; Pastor Rowan and Judy Fay, 8988 SE Pine Cone Lane, Kobe Sound, FL 33455. If you want to enclose a gift card, poem, photo, or any other item, please feel free to do so. Thought the Fays would enjoy getting some card.s each day as they settle into their new home. We loved them because they loved each of us. We lost a great friend and active member of our community on May 1. Wan da Sutphin wa.s president of the Sheffield-Calahaln Community Center and held positions within New Union UMC. Many of you from outside the community know Wanda as the person that sold you your bingo card at the SCCC fundrais ers, the one that made the cherry cheesecake pies at New Union's monthly bake sales, the one that helped you pick out the pierfect dessert at the fire depart ment barbecues, or from the Sheffield Music Hall. Many did not know she was a tal ented musician. Wanda wa.s a great electric bass player. She and her late husband, Al provided a place for musician.s to jam on Fri day night.s for many years. Wanda grew up in the com munity, daughter of Munsey and Naomi Reeve.s Richard son. She is survived by her sister Helen Bulla, nieces Ann (Jim) Scruggs, Valerie Richardson and the late Kim Richards, nephews Alan Barker, Kevin Richardson and Tim Poole, and several great nieces and nephews. I considerate it a privilege to have been her cousin and friend. You were and will always be loved more than words can ever be ex pressed. You're missed by all your family and many friend.s.

The class of 2020 at Davie County Early College High School held their graduation ceremony Saturday. Speeches were heard virtu ally. Cars with graduates and families paraded on US 158 and North Main Street to the early college, where the cere mony was held on a makeshift stage in the parking lot of Da vidson County Community College. It wasn’t a ceremony the graduates-had anticipated, but one they embraced. Most speakers mentioned Adrianna Barber, class mem ber who died in a car wreck last year. Each graduate carried a sunflower in her honor, which bouquet to started with ng the Logan er, who raduates to fore wealth, reputation before reknown and love before power.” Kaitlyn and Kayla Roscoe said that Adrianna brought “joy and life” everywhere she went. Adrianna, they said, lived by the philosophy: “Be yourself in a world that is constantly try ing to change you.” Sally Boger spoke, saying “The Phoenix is a symbol of strength and renewal.” “These past few months have not been anything like you thought your last few months at early college would be,” said Please See Phoenix - Page 5 Davie County Early College High School Principal Denise Absher congratulates and offers support to each gradu ate as they leave the ceremony in vehicles. could lawfully be held at this time. They were also offered an option to postpone the cer emony to a later date. The ma jority chose to keep the current graduation date of June 13 and enjoy the graduation ceremony from their cars in the school parking lot, with everyone re maining in their vehicles. With one car per graduate, graduates and their families will proceed to the car line to receive their diplomas. ■While this will be the day’s events on June 13, plans are in the works for a special event on campus prior to graduation. Wearing their cap and gown, seniors will be given the op portunity to come through the car line, exit the vehicle at the sidewalk, and walk across a stage to receive their diploma covers. This optional event will also include a photo opportu nity. Family members will be able to drive by the stage and take pictures/video from their car as their senior walks across the stage to receive their diplo ma cover. “Davie County Schools felt it was imperative to hear from all seniors on how they want ed to be celebrated during this milestone time in their lives,” said Superintendent Jeff Wal lace. “'While graduations will look different, the hope is to provide a meaningful and memorable celebration for the Class of 2020 and their fami lies.” DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 21,2020 - 32 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 21, 2020 Editorial Pa^e Where Are They Now? Taylor O’Neal returns to Davie after college graduation Let’s get In The Mail.. Goss marker continue partnership for the animals corrected u.s Marine Lance Cpl. James Spurgeon Goss was a hero. The young man had a tough home life growing up in Davie County, but he rose above those obstacles to be a popular student at Davie High School, where he excelled at football. Even now, the school still honors him with the Spurgeon Goss Award, given annually to student-athletes who exemplify the high standards he set. Goss was an all-conference lineman, pretty remark able when you realize he was aU of 5-8 tall and weighed 145 pounds. But he had tenacity and drive. And heart. .He carried that tenacity and drive into the Vietnam War after he graduated from Davie High, serving in the 3rd Marine Division. Remember that, the 3rd Marine Division. It seems that in late February of 1967, his 3rd Marine Division was called to support the 1st Division, which had been surrounded by the enemy and was suffering heavy casualties. Searching records, it is difficult to find out exactly who ordered the 3rd Division into that fight, but most accounts considered it a suicide mission. Spurgeon Goss went in with all of the heart he showed when he lined up on the football field against guys twice his size. . As Marines were being hit by hostile fire left and right, Goss went into action. He rushed into the gunfire to bring his fellow wounded Marines to safety. He was doing this when he was struck in the chest. And he died, right there on the battlefield. Yes, Spurgeon Goss was a hero. The problem here is with the grave marker at Smith Grove United Methodist Church. It lists Goss as a mem ber of the 1st Division. Someone in our military back then decided to list all casualties from that battle as members of the 1st Division, whether they ever served in that division or not. One can only speculate as to why. Maybe they were trying to protect the officer who sent them on iihe suicide mission in the first place. Maybe they were trting to re duce paper work. Maybe they were just incoilpetent. Why does it matter? What if, many years from now, someone search and looks at that marker saying he 1st Division. They look up the 1st Divisio! ate Goss with everything it did until his death. Talk about re-writing history. And this time, the government to blame. And it matters to people like David Griffin, Goss’ childhood friend and Vietnam veteran who has done his part in trying to get the marker corrected. He’s run into brick walls everywhere he goes, from local veterans to the Marine Corps, from the VA to our U.S. representa tives . “Spurg gave his life to save brother Marines in a flawed rescue attempt of other Marines who themselves were also caught in an enemy ambush,” Griffin said. “This is why I get so upset. This flawed leadership was and is so dysfunctional and most who should do not re ally care.” There has to be someone out there who can get this fixed, someone who cares enough about one of Davie’s greatest heroes ever to want his legacy to be correct. Letters have been sent to Congressman Ted Budd, but ■ Griffin doubts if the Congressman ever read them, in stead handled by a staff member who sends out forms and demands that Goss’ next of kin request the action. Unfortunately, the remaining family members of Spurgeon Goss don’t really care. But Griffin does. We do, too. So should you. Let’s get this fixed. •Call or write Congressman Budd, Virginia Foxx, Richard Burr or any other U.S. representative you can find. Hound them. Nag them. Push them into doing something. And as we commemorate Memorial Day on Monday, remember Davie County hero James Spurgeon Goss, a proud rhember of the 3rd Marine Division. - Mike Barnhardt DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRIZERECORD USPS 149-160 171 S.

POSTMASTER Send Address Changes to: Davie County Enterprise Record P.O. Box 99, Mocksville, NC 27028 To the editor; Recently we purchased a home in Davie County and my family and I are working on becoming familiar with our local businesses since we believe in supporting them: We have found some great services that we look forward to supporting when COVID diminishes and we can all em brace our communities once again. However, there is one concern. If you know me you know my family and I are huge dog people. We adopt, fos ter, rescue, and dog-sit on a consistent basis. About a year ago I received a call from a friend who volunteers at the Davie County Humane Society. My friend told me there was a puppy that needed a foster and asked if I would help. When we arrived they had trouble finding the pup. What? We waited and finally the little darling was brought to me. The animal control employee indicated she was healthy and handed her to me. When I took her in my arms I felt there was something wrong. I asked and was told she was fine and was going to be put on the adop tion .floor that afternoon. What? I put the little darling on the ground to watch her walk and sure enough, she could barely raise herself and when she did she was dragging one of her hind legs. I asked what was wrong again and again, was told it was nothing serious. I was incredulou. Animal control said I could take her home right then. I looked at my friend and indicated we were not leaving without this pup so we immediately drove her to Hillsdale Animal Hos pital. After examination and x-rays we learned she had two broken femurs that were not new” breaks and had not been tended to during the three days she was at the shelter. No medical care whatsoever while she was in “quarantine” un der her stray hold with animal control. They also indicated she was suffering. There is no doubt that running a shelter i.s a tough job. If you want to be in the position to match dogs and cats with the right families then it seem.s you should be looking out for the welfare of the dogs and cat.s first and foremost. Limited funds? Of course. To do that job effectively we all understand that donations are the life-blood. Medical costs can be prohibitive and that’s why sponsorships, fos ters, and volunteers are critical for the system to function. Any animal control should be grateful for the assistance of pieople who offer these services, donations, and support. When the Davie County Animal Services office can’t af ford these bills the Humane Society of Davie County raised some of the money. Last year the Davie County Humane Society (don’t forget most are volunteers) raised enough money to cover $86,646 in medical costs for the Davie County Animal Shelter. Follow me folks. These dedicated individuals raised the money to pay for $86,646 of the vet bills for Davie shelter dogs and cats. Their efforts also took Davie’s save rate, which was only 15 percent in 2009, up to what was 93 percent last year. Here is where I become frustrated. The staff and volun teers at Davie County Humane Society have been working in a 20’x20’ comer of the animal shelter office. Obviously not ideal. Recently they were offered a much larger space (for a reasonable price) by someone who was a supporter of the animals and wanted to help. Wonderful. Here is the kicker; I recently learned that animal control no longer de sires to partner with the Humane Society to allow them to be the adoption arm. (Read the Davie County FB post on 4/24/20 at 1:33 p.m.) Wait a minute; What? For whatever reason the politics are, they want to eliminate their associa tion with a group who helps pay the bills, find fosters and fur-ever homes, saves lives, and i.s dedicated to the care and well being of the animals by helping to make sure they get walks and kennels that are cleaned. In my neighborhood it appear.s most of us have dogs. Most of them are rescues including mine. Most of us can't stop talking about our dogs and the funny things they do. We show each other endless pictures and we tolerate hair on the couch. My friends and neighbors, this is the time to speak up. This is the time to let our elected officials know how we feel and what we expect in services with the money we put into the pot from our taxes. We have a choice. Both agencies are supposed to be on the same team by wanting what is best for these animals. So, to DCAS I would reply to your questions; “What would you like to see the shelter do”'.’ I want you to continue your partnership with the Hu mane Society of Davie County which is helping you in pro viding services for these animals and is the adoption arm for your shelter. Tricia House, Bermuda Run New site should improve adoptions To the editor: I hope the recent announcement on the Davie County Shelter Facebook page stating that they will be taking back adoptions is reconsidered.,1 have seen first hand the impact the Humane Society of Davie Coun?y ha.s on our local shel ter. Adopting out an animal to the right home takes time, money, and appropriate marketing measures to find that family. Thanks to social media, gone are the days where you stumble into a shelter to hope the right fit is there based on who pulls at your heartstrings the most or is the “right look.” HSDC staff takes the time to learn the animals’ per sonalities, assess their medical needs, and find out if they would be best in a home with kids, cats, and dogs. Making that 15-year plus commitment isn’t something that should be taken lightly. HSDC guides potential families through the entire process by hearing and learning what that family is looking for in a pet too. In addition, with a proven track record for success of adopting out 93% of the dogs and cats that find themselves in the Davie shelter in 2019, HSI3C is now going to have even more room to make a difference with their new build ing on North Main Street in Mocksville. Volunteers and the community will have an easier time getting to the facility to meet the animals, contribute to their care, and instilling social responsibility with the youth of our community. The many residents of our community who have voiced concerns about this decision hope that animal control and the sheriff reconsider this decision. A 93% save rate overall and $86,646 raised in medical care by HSDC is nothing to overlook. It’s working. Carol Blankenship Advance Sheriff’s decision defuddling To the editor; I am completely befuddled at why Sheriff Hartman and his staff at Davie County Animal Services would refuse the Humane Society of Davie County’s; help to be the sole adoption arm for our county. Even the now animal control director, Lisa Nielsen said in the Davie Enterprise, “This has worked really well because we do what we do best, with animal services getting the pets healthy and ready to be adopted, and the Humane Society marketing the pets and getting them adopted.” What ha.s changed her tune enough to influence the sheriff that thi.s is actually a good decision? Especially since last year alone the Humane So ciety of Davie County raised $86,646 in medical care. It seems that animal services/animal control can’t even keep up their end of the bargain in medically caring for the ani mal a.s Ms. Nielsen is quoted saying in the previous Davie- Enterprise article. In 2018, animal control’s budget reflects they only used 58% of the $17,(XK) they were allocated for medical. That means they could roll over the surplus and use it to the director’s discretion for anything. Hmmm. I wonder what they used it on if medical wasn’t a priority and they gladly had the Humane Society of Davie County picking up their bill. It’s working. The Humane Society of Davie County is clearly picking up the slack from our county workers. The taxpayers don’t need to absorb more financial costs because animal control doesn’t want to be a team player. Sheriff Hartman, you should be wary of the staff advising you. It doesn t seem like they have the animals or county’s best interest at heart. Hopefully, you do your due diligence and turn this ship around. A lot of voters in our county are extremely upset about this careless decision that has long-term impacts to our county, the taxpayers, and the animals that are now all ben efiting thanks to the Humane Society of Davie County be ing the primary adoption agents. Derek Tolley, Advance Don’t destroy a working system To the editor. tx/e have iv-mmA a ..ru x- , ,To the editor; I truly hope Sheriff Hartman and Davie County Animal Control reconsider dissolving the partnership with the Hu mane Society of Davie County. I have read, with great con cern and lack of understanding, why animal control would want to take back doing adoptions when the Humane So ciety of Davie County has done it so well. The Humane Society of Davie County has a save rate of animals that come into the shelter of 93 percent. Wow. As a taxpayer during a pandemic, where small business es and people are already financially burdened, why would the county want to put more back on our community? The Humane Society of Davie County does so much for these animals. They’ve raised $86,646 in funds medically last year to help the animals leave the shelter in the best shape possible. They spend the appropriate time needed to un derstand their personality so the family’s they go home with are the families best suited for their needs. If animal control were to handle this, how much would it cost each taxpayer? yVe have become a beacon of hope for other shelters and humane societies in our state who are trying to become no kill just like us. Sheriff Hartman, please don’t destroy a system that has worked so well. The animals and the constituents of Davie County don’t want to see this massive overhaul done to the animals that come to the shelter.

Enjoy learning about former scholars and the things they are accomplishing. By Madison Hartness Davie Community Foundation Home is not only a place that brings you comfort, but it i,s a place where you are surrounded by people who care and genuinely want the best for you. People in Davie are willing to help and will not stop un til you have what you need. Being part of this community is a blessing and 1 love every minute of it.” Taylor O'Neal, former recipient of the James E. and Lelia N, Essie Scholarship, describes her love for Davie County that way. Following her graduation from UNC Charlotte with a degree in accounting, she returned to Davie County and began working in the county finance office in March 2018. Her first role was the human resources assistant and fi nance technician. Now she serves a.s a finance and budget analyst and is able to put her degree into practice and ex perience the real world side of accounting. She prepares fi nancial reports, conducts financial analysis, makes journal entries, conducts cash flow analysis, and assists in budget In The Mail Many contributed to success of early college graduation ceremony preparations. Her long hours of studying in the Atkins Li brary at UNC Charlotte prepared her for her role. While in college she also enjoyed exploring campus, trying local restaurants, and attending sporting events. Her time at Davie High was marked by her experience on the yearbook team. She worked alongside peers spend ing countless hours photographing and editing to create the perfect yearbook. Their hard work paid off when Davie High’s 2015 Yearbook was chosen to be in the Jostens Look Book, an accomplishment for only the best yearbooks. The yearbook give.s her a tangible memento of some of her fa vorite memories. To today’s high school seniors, she advises that it is okay to make mistakes; no one is perfect. Making mistakes is how you learn and grow as a person. These slip ups help you gain empathy for others and reignite your motivation. “If you fail, try again and again until you get it. When you finally achieve what you are trying to do, the mistakes you made along the way will be lessons on how to handle things in the future. Use them a.s stepping stone.s for the future,” she said. When not working, Taylor enjoys crafting, photography, and playing with her two dogs, Harley and Ellie.

May 21,2020 - 5 4 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 21, 2020 The Literary Corner: Renegade Writer’s Guild “If I'd Only Known" By Julie Terry Cartner A pair of dark gray socks, embroidered with burgundy edging and elaborate flow ers of the same hue, just my size, sit in the old Captain’s trunk atop many other treasures from the past. Slipping my. al ways cold feet into the two, hand-knitted cocoons of warmth-filled pleasure, I mar veled at the intricacy of the design. Such detail, lovingly added to the already-com plicated creation of socks, must have been a labor of love. Like many of us, I have spent much of my shelter at home days cleaning and de cluttering. Opening the old Captain’s trunk in my boy’s bedroom, I unearthed expect ed memories — hand-tooled quilts com memorating their births, favorite blankets and winter apparel. But I had forgotten I had put several items of my own in the re maining space once the boys grew to men and moved away. Always aware of the vo racious appetites of destructive moths, I had added my woolen garments along with the deep richness of cedar chips, an aroma so reminiscent of old trunks, before clos ing the lid many years ago. Now, I pulled out several scarves, mittens and hats, and then, the socks. I love winter, always have. As a child and far into my teen years, I’d spend ev ery available moment outside, sledding, or more often, ice skating. Dreams of being the next Dorothy Hamill soared through my brain as I practiced spins, glides and jumps. Despair of my curly hair, which could never duplicate her famous Hamill wedge, was the only negative thinking I allowed myself — other than the other, my bitterly cold feet! Figure skates, no matter how elegant, are not well insulated, and I would skate until my feet were numb, then trudge home through the woods and the knee deep snow, frozen toes screaming with every step. I didn’t know then, didn’t know un til many years later, how tedious knitting socks really is, how many countless hours it takes to fashion a skein of yam into soft, comforting socks. After all, I’d thought, they’re little and probably only take an hour or two to make. How wrong I was. I wish I’d known. I never knew, and, to be honest, to some degree wish I didn’t know now. Had I known the depth of the gift, those soft woolen socks, I would hope that I would have been more gracious, more appreciative of the gift. Had I known, I hope I would have expressed my understanding that they were so much more than socks. To my rather undemonstrative mother, this gift was an expression of love. She knew how much I adored skating as it so closely duplicated hers in her younger years, and she also knew of my icicle feet. So she made me socks for warmth and adorned them with decorations for a daugh ter who was old enough to appreciate beauty even if she weren’t old enough to recognize her mother’s expression of love for what it was. Those socks were a way of telling me, “I understand you. I love you. You are mine.” Sadly, to my teenaged self, they were merely a pair of socks. If I’d only known, I would hope my casual thanks would have been replaced by a deeper, stronger, more loving thank you, a recog nition of the time-consuming task of knit ting socks and the depth of love, and the acknowledgement of the unbreakable bond between mother and daughter. If I’d only known... But I know now. Thank you. Mom. I love you. “Remembering Mama " By Gaye Hoots The first memory I have of my mom is when my younger sister was bom. I was two years old and had slept in a baby bed at the foot of my parents’ bed until Faye was bom. Then I was installed in a youth cot in Grandpa’s room. I did not like being moved from my bed but did like my time with Grandpa, becoming his shadow until my brother Phil was bom four years later when we moved from my grandparents’ home to the Marchmont. Mama was afraid when Dad was not home, and I thought I was her protector. It was during the years here that she shared the stories of her childhood. She had grown up on a farm with five brothers. Their fam ily attended the church that was closest to their home. Friend’s Union. Mama had been a good student and an obedient daugh ter. One of the things she loved was danc ing, and she could do a mean Charleston, but she rarely got to go to dances. She was beautiful and always careful of her posture and how she dressed in public. Mama graduated from high school and Now Hiring COMFORT* BILT ♦ WINDOWS & DOORS ♦ FULLTIME FIRST SHIFT ASSEMBLERS Comfort Bilt Windows & Doors in Mocksville, NC has immediate openings for Full-Time First Shift Assemblers.

She shared stories of double dat ing with her girlfriends and how she met my dad. He came with the boyfriend of Ma ma’s girlfriend, and they began to date. Af ter a few months, she agreed to marry him. She, her brother, and his fiancee and Dad drove to York, South Carolina, where both couples were married. They drove back to Winston Salem and spent one night at The Robert E. Lee Hotel. My parents then moved in with my dad’s family on a farm in Yadkin County, where Dad farmed with his father. Mama had nev er seen Dad in anything but a suit until after they were married. Once married, he donned overalls and rarely dressed up again. After a couple of years. Grandpa sold the Yad kin County farm, and Dad located a farm in Advance. WWl 1 had started, and Mama took a job at The Carbon Plant in Winston, where she lived in a boarding house during the week, spending weekends on the farm. It is hard for me to picture her being this in dependent, but Mama worked about a year and quit a month before I was bom. She lost her brother, a glider pilot, over France, and I was bom on his next birthday. Childhood on the farm with my grand parents was picture perfect in my mind, and after we moved to Marchmont, I still spent weekends with my grandparents fre quently. The most significant change for me was that Mama wanted me home when Dad was gone, so I was spending less time with him and more with her. I watched her take on all the responsibilities of family life, and she had her challenges. Faye stayed close to Mama, but Phil and I gave her many scares. When I was 6 or 7, I missed the school bus one morning, and rather than return home and upset Mama, I decided to walk the three or four miles to school. Someone I did not know offered me a ride, so I didn’t have to walk the whole way. A few days later Jim Peebles, who worked for Dad, told him a man of questionable character had picked me up and taken me to school. Mama was upset with me. Another scare I gave her was when I cut my foot deeply on a broken Coke bottle, and she could not stop the bleeding. Luckily, a farmhand was able to stop it. My brother broke his bottle and swal lowed a piece of the glass when he was one year old. There was someone to help then, and Phil survived. Once he ran away, and Jim Peoples found footprints leading up to the edge of the farm pond, but no returning set and for almost an hour. Mama thought he had drowned. Dad purchased a farm in Advance when I was about 13 years old, and we moved there. Advance was much more convenient for Mama. Although I loved Marchmont, it never belonged to us. We were closer to church, which was always a part of our lives because of Mama. Dad attended when we were young, but as he took on more farmland, he stopped. I had started attend ing Advance Baptist with Grandma Hoots when I was 6 years old, and this became our anchor. Mother lived her life by the rule book, no gray areas, only black or white. After my dad died, the church was her sup port circle. Farm life was harsh, but Mama handled it all and tried to keep us all on the right track. She loved her grandkids fiercely and mentored them as well. She was an excel lent cook, and while I never thought of things in terms of rich or poor, I felt I ate like a king. Mama was a teetotaler, and one of my fondest memories was her giggling with my daughters and listening to their stories about dating and marriage. I had never seen this side of her as she tried to be strict with us growing up. One day she asked me to get her one of the soda pops the girls shared with her when they visited. I could not figure what brand she wanted, so she saved an empty bottle for me. They had been taking her a wine cooler on their visits. I never told her what it was and picked up some for her. She had a difficult time adjusting when Dad died as she had never spent a night alone. My five- year old granddaughter stayed with her for a while. Mama eventu ally learned to live alone and lived until just past ninety. She had a major stroke when she was eighty-five and had to have total care. Mama was able to spend the last two years of her life living with my sister and for the final year with me also. Mama was a treasure. “Masks" By Marie Craig My first memory of wearing a mask was in the first grade near Halloween. Our teacher had us cut out black construction paper that had a vague shape of a cat’s head. We cut jagged holes for eyes and mouth with our little rounded-point scissors so that we could see and breathe. She fas tened elastic on each edge that went around our heads and became tangled in our hair. Then she marched us single file the half mile from school to downtown so that ev erybody could see our marvelous art proj ects. It’s a wonder we didn’t get run over or trampled with our poor line of sight. I re member feeling embarrassed by the whole thing because I was sure somebody would recognize me and I would be permanently scarred by this experience. I recall having a black Zorro mask a few years later that went with my cow girl outfit. It had sharp edges that dug into my face, but I wore it anyway as I solved crimes and wiped out bad guys. My mask days got put on hold until recently when I’d go to the doctor with con tagious symptoms. I still felt awkward put ting one on. I wonder how much good they actually do. But we now live in a must- wear mask moment. It’s been interesting seeing what creations some people have ei ther bought or made at home. I’ve always admired others’ abilities to think outside the box and combine the mundane with the ab stract. We now have clown faces, designs with nature and plaid designs, and favorite team logos on masks. I have a strong suggestion: somewhere on the mask you wear, write, embroider, or use a name tag. I talked to a woman in a store this week for several minutes who knew me. I had no idea who she was. The voice was familiar, but it was one of those odd times when the harder you thought, the more obscure the answer was. I couldn’t think of a pointed question that would give me a clue as to who she was. It would be wonderful if everybody wore name tags all the time. It would make life so much easier, and this would be a great help if they could be put on masks first so that we get used to the idea. Something happens in your brain when you try too hard to think of a name or an answer. I have found that if I say to myself, “I really don’t care if I think of this or not,” then some very relaxed part of my brain will come up with the correct answer. But sometimes, the moment has passed and you don’t need to think of it right then. I saw an image once of a man who had gold engraved in his front teeth that spelled out his name. Now, that’s class. But no body can see it now because he has to wear a mask. 1 COMFORT BILT IS AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER Plan your future with Comfort Bilt Windows and Doors 1 Layla Paige Smith carries a sunflower in memory of classmate Adrianna Barber, places sand into a container symbolizing their time at the early college, and receives her diploma from the principal, Denise Absher. - Photos by Mike Barnhardt Phoenix ... Continued from Page 1 Principal Denise Absher. “A cloud was cast on your world.” But in Phoenix fashion, she said students embraced online learning and social izing. She, too, mentioned Adrianna. “She taught us to stand up for others, es pecially those who cannot speak for themselves. She taught us to get up and do for others. She will forever be a part of the legacy of the Davie County Early College High School Class of 2020.” Life, she told the stu dents, isn’t easy. “But you are ready. The past four years prepared you for your future. You have the foun dation to get out of your comfort zone. Walk in faith and remember, your Phoe nix family is always behind you.” Tracy Kassel, academic support sptecialist, was the guest speaker. She told students to ex pect disruptions in their lives. Most adults, she said, aren’t doing now what they thought they would be do ing when they were 17 or 18. “You are your family’s bright hope for the future,” Kassel said. “Those car ing adults in your life want nothing but for your suc cess and happiness. When disruptions happen, your responses will define who you are. “And you’re a Phoenix. Rising above and looking beyond is not just a slogan, it’s an action, a call to arms, a challenge to rise above the temporary setbacks and look beyond to what comes next. “Be guided by love. Let love and a hope for a brighter tomorrow win. You only go this way once. Be cheerful and strive to be happy.” Victoria Bailey was cho sen to be the speaker for the class members. “Adrianna Barber, she exemplified a fierce tenac ity to stand proudly for her beliefs. We carry her spirit of resilience.” She said she learned not only from teachers, but from her fellow students. “You educated me on self advocacy, sheer will and the charity of family. “We have spent weeks mourning what could have been. Despite our irreplace able loss, we have steadied one another. This gradua tion is another example of our fortitude.” She spoke in Serbian, talking to her grandparents, mother and aunt, thank ing them for their guidance and belief in her future. “My heart breaks,” she said about her mother not being able to attend. “1 would not be here if it were not for you.” Bailey looked to her fel low graduates. “I’m ex ceedingly confident in the successes of your futures.” Molly "Abby” Boger said the early college taught her to be ready to face chal lenges. She urged graduates to live in the present. “Our time is today. We are way more than a student body, we are a Phoenix family. You were able to make it this far and now we have the world to conquer.” Junior marshals Vanessa Gamez, Ashley Redmond and Abby Corneoe find a shady spot to wait on the ceremony.

Operation Cast Me Not Mocksville First Methodist reaching out to elderly members By Aimee Yeager United Methodist Conference When Gov. Roy Cooper issued stay-at-home orders, the members of First Unit ed Methodist Church in Mocksville realized they would have to do something to take care of the most vul nerable among them during this time. With public officials warning of increased COVID-19 risk for adult.s over the age of 65, church members asked how they could best care for their 12 elderly, homebound mem bers. Operation Cast Me Not was bom. Named from Psalm 71:9, "Do not cast me away when 1 am old; do not forsake me when my strength is gone," Operation Cast Me Not pairs a church volunteer with one of the church’s homebound members. This volunteer is tasked with running errands for the el derly member, whether that be to the grocery store, the pharmacy, home and garden supply, or any other errand they need. Since its inception, the ministry has grown. A community member has prepared and delivered homecooked meals. Another church mem ber has baked and deliv ered zucchini and blueberry loaves. For Easter, the church delivered each homebound member a frosted cake shaped like a lamb and a goodie bag filled with a chocolate bunny, candy, Kleenex, and a card from their church family. “I have received more blessings from participat ing in this adventure than I have delivered,” said Alice Hanes, volunteer shopper. “My folks were always so excited to receive home- cooked meals and the Easter treat bags.” Operation Cast Me Not soon grew to include the Stephen Ministry, a lay-led ministry in which volunteers are trained to offer one-to-one Christian care for individuals going Blair and Don Routh appreciate their ed Methodist Church. shopper” from Mocksville First Unit- I have been blessed by the opfxrrtunity to use this un usual and uncertain time to show God’s love.” Adopt-A-Graduate FUMC-Mocksville also determined to not neglect the other senior group among their ranks — their high school seniors. In mid-April, they began the Adopt-A-Graduate pro gram. The church sent out a call for volunteers who would be willing to adopt one of the 10 high school seniors they have in their youth group this year. The senior adults decid ed to return the favors they had received through Op eration Cast Me Not. The church received phone calls from several .senior adults who wanted to adopt a high school graduate. The volun teers are sending encourag ing notes and small gift.s to lift the spirit.s of the student.s who are missing the final months of their senior year, including their graduation ceremony. During May, one Sun day school class is holding "We Miss You Wednesday” drive-by parades. The route i.s sent to participants, who are encouraged to decorate their vehicles and drive by the homes of senior adults, senior graduates, and the children of the church. In stead of throwing out can dy, like a normal parade, participants hand out Upper Room devotions and home made face masks. Don Routh, a recipient of the Operation Cast Me Not shopping program says, “1 am 74 and my wife is 72. I have asthma and had pneumonia at the beginning of this. Because we have a shopper we have not had to go out in public. I thank First United Methodist Church for being "The Church'.” Reflecting on the heart of FUMC, Lisa Prillaman said: "In a time when so much is uncertain, there are some things I know for certain. God is with us. God contin ues working in His people. At FUMC-Mocksville, we take care of one another and we have church leadership that is willing to adjust and develop new ministries a.s needed. Operation Cast Me Not is an example of these things and the way that God’s light is shining in the darkness of uncertainty.” Mow Offering Custom Hydraulic Hoses @meg brown home furnishings New Hours; 10-5 Monday - Saturday Located just off 1-40 in Bermuda Run, NC flPPlIHHCE repair “O-ver 25 years of experience in appliance repair"in appliance repair" 540 Sanford Avenue Mocksville, NC 27028 336-751-3162 DavieMajorApplianceRepair.com DavieMajorAppliance@gmail.com through difficult times. The church divided the names of all members 65 years and older between the 12 Ste phen Ministers and asked them to call the individuals on their list one to two times per week. Lillian Sharpe, one of the Stephen Ministers, said: “This has been a good ex perience at a time when we all feel disconnected from our church family. We have been in touch with friends just to check in and have found that the calls lead us to others who are not on our list. It’s been a joy to do a little something to help during this lime.” One of the benefits of the ministry has been increased community between mem bers. “It has been a blessing to be able to help someone during this time,” Tiffany Evans said. “The person that 1 was matched with wasn’t someone I had met before, so it was nice to make a new friend, too. 1 have en joyed calling her a couple times each week to check in about her needs.

Charles graduated from Glenn High School in Winston-Salem where he served as Student Body President and courted the love of his life. Peggy. The two .were married soon after (Zharles graduated. Shortly thereafter, he began serving his country as a Communications Specialist in the United States Marine Corps. Peggy enjoys telling the story of how Charles hitch-hiked all the way home from the base at Camp Lejeune just in lime for their April 6 wedding in 1957. And from that day forward, Charles and Peggy continued to stand side by side for over 63 years, working together, raising their family, and ministering together throughout the area. After working as a Production Planner for RJR Archer Aluminum and in insurance sales alongside his father and father-in-law, Charles w'as called to pursue his passion in the Music Ministry. He attended the University of North Carolina at Greensboro where he studied Musical Theory’, History, and Vocal Performance; however, most folk.s who knew <?harles would agree that he was a “naturally- gifted” singer and musician, with a God-given talenL (Tharles loved music and came from a long line of gifted musicians and singers. At an early age, he and his siblings would gather around the piano and sing songs as his mother played the piano. Then as a teen, he sang in the high school glee club. As a young father, he would sit in the front yard and play the autoharp or banjo as neighbors gathered in the cool shade of evening to listen and sing along. Later. Charles served on siaft’ as Minister of Music. Education, and/or Youth at several area Baptist churches including. Oaklawn. Bethany. Pfafftown, First Bapiist-Mf)cksville, West Side, and Northwest He also sang with a group ot friends who performed at church and civic events. Charles was known for his beautiful baritone voice where he sang for many friends’ weddings, funerals, church services, and even his own children's weddings. In addition to music, one of the most fulfilling job responsibilities for (Tharles was spending time w’ith young people. Charles had the ability to live out his faith through his actions which made a lasting impact on many teens as well a.s people of all ages. He loved the adventure of taking his Youth Group each summer to Camp Caswell and seeing the Holy Spirit al work in the lives of young believers in ChrisL Alw’ays one to “tinker” w’ith electronics. Charles was a self-taught computer expert. With the age of personal computers, he learned to build and repair the hardware and loved all the challenges and conveniences these machines allowed. Always one to help, he spent many hours in people's homes and businesses helping them with their computer issues before the time of “Geek Squad.” Another hobby he pursued was photography and taught him.self the mechanics and artistry’ by immersing himself into countless books and computer software to perfect his creations. Like most of hi.s talents, Charles was a natural, and through the years he enjoyed capturing countless photos of his most-loved subjects - his family. He also enjoyed photographing God's natural beauty and had the opportunity to document his travels through his photography. Many of his beautiful landscape, lighthouse, and sunset photos adorn the walls of his home. EXiring retirement Charies and Peggy journeyed to destinations throughout the U.S. and beyond. Some of their favorite places were the Grand Canyon and other areas of the western states. Alaska, Hawaii. Europe, and the Bahamas. His favorite place w as the beach or “coast” as he liked to call it He loved to fish and later in life sit on the beach and listen to the waves. His children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren talk of all the times spent with him building sandcastles. playing in the surf, and walking the beach looking for sharks’ teeth and seashells. During the last few years of his life, when it was difficult for Charles to express himself verbally, he never lost the ability to sing. He took every opportunity to sit around the piano and sing hymns and carols with his wife, children, and grandchildren. He even directed the music and sang the hymns for chapel services at the Veterans Home. And we know for certain, he is now singing with the heavenly hosts. Thank you to all the friends and family who have supported (Tharles and Peggy through the many challenging years dealing with Alzheimer’s, especially Peggy's brother, Jimmy and his wife, Linda, and Peggy's dear friend. Ann. The family would also like to thank the doctors, nurses, and staff of the NC State Veterans Home in Salisbury for the great care and love shown to (Tharles during the short time he lived there, and especially for holding his hand when w’e couldn't, as he passed into eternal life with Jesus.

Halloween showdown results in last-minute win Editor's note: At a time when sports are shut down by the COVID-19 pandemic, we take a look at some memorable moments in Davie County sports history. By Brian Pitts Davie Enterprise Record For a span of 27-plus minutes, the Davie football team’s offense was dead. In a high-stakes game against visit ing North Davidson on Halloween night that determined the season for both teams, the War Eagles were deader than tube socks. Deader than disco. Then Davie’s corpse jumped up and pulled off a miraculous grind-it- out touchdown drive that ended with 30 seconds on the clock, delivered a 23-20 win and gave Davie a share of the Central Piedmont Conference championship. The final night of the regular season began with West Forsyth, Davie and North tied for first at 2-1. West (9-2 overall, 3-1 CPC) beat Reynolds and received the league’s No. 1 playoff seed virtue of its 14-6 win over Davie. The War Eagles (7-4, 3-1) grabbed a piece of the title for the third time in Doug Illing’s six years as coach and secured the No. 2 seed. The Black Knights, who beat West and would have owned the top spot outright with a win over Davie, stumbled all the way to No. 4. After a brutal four-game losing streak at midseason, Davie’s regular season culminat ed in the most gratifying way imaginable. The Black Knights had soared to No. 5 in the AP Poll and were 9-0 before losing in overtime at South Rowan. “Oh my goodness, after a four-game skid and then tying for the CPC champi onship, it’s just unbelievable,’’ senior free safety Billy Riddle said after Davie’s third straight win. “When you go on a four-game skid, there’s junk talking and some sneering going on. Some fieople in the county may have stopped believing and people in the school stopped believing. But our team hung together and jelled. We had composure and maturity because we’ve been through tough situations all season.” “People didn’t think we had a chance to win, with them being ranked eighth in the state and us being 6-4,” said junior defensive lineman Zac O’Brien. “Well, just look now.” "This is by far the best sports moment I’ve ever had,’’ senior left guard Justin Norsworthy said. “This is most excited I’ve ever been about winning a ballgame. Hard work pays off.” North rocked Davie with 13 unanswered point.s and had control of the game at 20-16. The momentum was clearly in North’s favor because the War Eagle.s couldn’t do anything offensively. After watching star Cooter Arnold rip off two long touchdowns in the first 13 minutes, they were wondering how so much could go wrong so fast in a game that started with leads of 10-0 and 16-7. After Arnold’s 58-yard dash to the end zone on the first play of the second quarter, the War Eagles mustered only 18 yards on their next 16 plays. They had six consecutive three-and-outs. “They were playing great defense and we couldn’t get anything going,” Illing said. "Our defense kept hanging and hanging and hanging. North made some (defensive) ad justments at halftime, came out in a different set and it took u.s a quarter to figure out what they were in.’’ Davie’s fading hopes weren’t helped by Adam Kassouf’s 54-yard punt. With 8:30 on the clock, Davie’s offense took the field knowing this was possibly the last chance to win. The ball rested at the Davie 14-yard line. Fans can follow Davie for the next 50 years and not experience what happened next. In one of the most amazing, dramatic revivals of all time, the War Eagles wiped away two-plus quarters of futility with a 19-pIay, 86-yard. eight-minute drive that left Nonh with 30 hopeles.s seconds. It evoked memories of a 7-3 upset of West Forsyth in 1996. “It’s up there," defensive coordinator DeVore Holman said. “I told them this is the biggest game we've ever coached or they’ve ever played. We didn’t forget two years ago when we were 9-1 coming into this, and this time it was reversed.” The drive started with Illing putting Andrew McClannon at quarterback. The senior wa.s the starting QB through week eight, but was benched as Arnold moved from tailback to QB for two-plus games. McClannon came through when Da vie needed him most, igniting the offense with a completion to Ted Randolph, who was surrounded by three Knights but caught a 6-yarder. Fullback Justin Brown converted a third-and-1 for Da vie's first first down since the first play of the second quarter. On third-and-7, McClannon rolled right. He kept rolling, then completed a 14-yarder to Brown, who had four catches in two years. “That’s one of the plays of the game,” Please See 2003 - Page B3 To be a Sponsor on this page please email: ray.tutterow@davie-enterprise.com B2 - DAVIE COUNTV ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 21,2020 DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 21,2020 - B3 Tax Preparation Service 36 Robinhood Qrdc, Winston* Salem, NC ACCOMMODATING HOURS TO FIT YOUR BUSY SCHEDULE Contact Barbara or Buddy Hutchins to schedule an appointnnent (336) 345-5877 (336) 416-8174 Bkjck Sand Company Sand, Gfova! & Landscape Materials Residential & Commercial Mark A Citufy Shatrf, Otenm Mooday-Friday 7JO-5JO • Saturday 8HK>-3HM) PICK UP OR DELIVERY IAS W.

The whole defensive line went where the fake (to Arnold) wa.s going. We were one guy from busting it.” Now it was fourth-and-5.

That’s how much they believe in themselves. You have to be careful not to let your kids talk you out of something, but it’s our favorite play.” “It was a simple off-tack le, but were they expecting power on fourth-and-5?” Whitlock said. With hearts pounding, the clock under two minutes and everything riding on a single play, McClannon handed off to Arnold, who ran behind Randolph, Zach Jakob and Norsworthy. Ar nold churned and lunged and pushed with all his might. Adding to the wild dra ma, no one knew if Arnold had gained 4.5 yards or 5. The officials called for the chain crew. “When they were mea suring those chains, Mc Clannon was laying on the ground, watching it and measuring it with his eyes,” senior center Kyle Brown said. “They had guys mea suring it with their eyes.” Davie got it by a foot. "The reactions were price less,” Brown said. With North staggered and Davie jacked sky high, nothing was going to stop the War Eagles after that. Arnold pounded 4 yards to the 3. Arnold hammered 2 yards to the foot-line. On third down, .Arnold bowled in on second effort. Kevin Winters drilled the extra point for the 23-20 lead. Four incompletion.s later, it was over. “It was unbelievable to see the offense push and push and push and score to win the game,” O'Brien said. ‘‘It wa.s exactly what we wanted, and it was a game we needed to win.” “We knew we had to get it done,” Jakob said. "The clock was going. Me, Nors and Ted knew we could get it (on fourth down) and we wanted it on our backs. We were all yelling at each other and telling each other we've got to get it done.” North’s defense, which gave up eight points a game during its 9-0 start, knew Arnold (152 rushing yard.s) was going to get the ball. Still, it was powerless to stop him. He ran I I times for 51 yards during the 19- play drive. ‘‘And you know a game like this had to be especially hard on him,” McClannon said. “The defense was key ing on him and he still came through. You could .see it in his eyes. You could see it in everyone's eyes.” "It'.s the best game ever, I mean it was incredible,” nose guard Brandon Pane said. “I don't know how high we're going to go. We're up so high right now I don’t think we're ever going to come down. Come play offs, it's going to have to be a tough team to beat us.” “It was crazy,” lineback er D J. Rice said. “My heart wa.s thumping. All I could think about wa.s my fresh man year when they came over here, beat us and sent us home.” Bryson Brown blocks for Raeshon McNeil (8).

Sheffield-Calahaln Looking forward to some life in downtown Mocksville By Betty Etchison West Cana/Pino News I hof)e you had a nice Mother’s Day. I had a fine day - just the kind that I re quested - a quiet day with out fus.s or confusion and without gifts. For the most part, my children did just what 1 asked them to do. I said that I did not want any thing that had to be dust ed under, hung up, or put into a drawer. Our oldest daughter, Frances Tutterow, brought a favorite meal — a lobster and filet mignon dinner from Outback Steak House; Susan Cujas, our other daughter, brought my favorite seafood dinner, jumbo shrimp and scallops, on another day; and our son, Henry West, made my favorite dessert, homemade ice cream and brownies with nuts. I could not have asked for better gifts and none required dusting. The cold weather didn’t even bother me because I stayed inside which is what I do most days. My hus band, Roland West, has de mentia so I don’t leave him alone. The stay at home rule has had little effect on us. The cold weather reminded me that my father, Everett Etchison, used to talk about the year that had no summer. I couldn’t remember what year it was. My father has been dead for 25 years so who do you ask about such things? I kept thinking that he said that it was the sum mer of ’16. I finally went to the internet which is a great source of information if your go-to person for in formation is no longer with you. The year wa.s 1816. It was so cold that year that the crops would not grow so there was a food short age. That unusual weather was believed to have been caused by a volcano erup tion in the East Indies. I don’t think that our present cold weather was caused by such a disaster, but it is what it is so just enjoy it. As I tried to remember what my father told me about that cold summer, I again thought how import ant it is to spjending time talking to the older people who are now with us and to record, record, record information that they share with us. I am now one of the oldest people around, and I am really suffering because there is no one to ask about things I suddenly want to know. There i.s not one per son left in Cana who was there when I was a little girl - sad. Therefore, I say that we should spend time, hours if necessary, talking with people about our ancestors, about life years ago, etc. As you talk to those peo ple write down what they tell you or you will find one day that there is no one left to answer your questions. I recently heard a lady say, “1 don’t even know how my mother and daddy met and there i.s no one living who can tell me.” That made her sad. I spent hours and hours and days and days with my great-aunt Susan Eaton, who was bom the year that the Civil War started, 1860. She told me story after sto ry, and she told me about our ancestors. She always said, “Write that down, re cord it.” She made me write a book about our family history when I was 9 years old. In fact, she made me rewrite it because she said that my penmanship was not good enough. Today I am so thankful that I had an Aunt Susan and that she made me record all kinds of informa tion. Again, sp>end time with the people who will share information with you and record it because one day you too will say, if you live long enough, there is no one left to answer my questions. If you get tired of asking questions and recording, spend some of this stay at home time reading. There are so many good books available. I normally read biographies, histories, etc. but recently I read a histor ical novel titled, “We Must Be Brave," concerning the World War II era. It was in teresting and entertaining. If you get tired of listening to the news about the cora- virus, read. It will give you a bit of relief and a bit of pleasure.

That's what makes his busi ness so special. As owner of Perkins Roofing in Mocksville, Jesse treats each roof as if it was on his own home. If it isn’t good enough for him, it will not be good enough for you. That is the way Jesse treats each roofing job and customer. His work and integrity speak tor itself. Jesse, a Reidsville native, became interested in rooting when he was just 13 years old. At age 17, the summer before graduating from high school, he began helping his brother in the rooting business. Af ter graduating the next year, Jesse moved to Davie County and has been here since. After years of working for other rooters, Jesse de cided it was time to go out on his own. So, in the fall of 1997, he started Perkins Roofing. “I have been rooting most of my life and that’s what I love to do,” Jesse explains. “I started out with a lad der, hatchet and pick-up truck.” Now, along with roofing, Jesse has added vinyl sid ing to his line ot work. “I work with several local contractors on new homes and do tear offs tor older homes that need a new roof. I have done some repair work but we just don’t have that many bad storms around here to do too much damage for roof repairs,” Jesse notes. Jesse takes a great deal of pride in his work and will work however many hours and days it takes to get the job finished and done right. “I keep my business somewhat small. That way I can be on the job to see what goes on and make sure the job is completed like it would be tor someone in my family.” Perkins Roofing also enjoys giving back to the com munity. They are involved in various fund raisers including the law enforcement and rescue squad. If you are in need of a new roof and a good, honest, dependable man for the job. give Jesse at Perkins Roofing a call for a tree estimate at (336) 753-8355.

You are not alone. The COVID-19 pandemic anti resulting economic down turn as well as the isolation created by social distancing, school and business closures, and shelter-in-place orders have negatively affected many people’s mental health and emotional well-being. Smith Grove United Meth odist Church in Mocksville wants to help. The church has partnered with the NC Rural Center in Raleigh and local counselors to provide reduced rate and free counseling services for those in Davie County who have faced trauma during COVID-19. “It is our vision to be able to provide this necessary care with a small out of pocket cost or even free if necessary,” said Pastor Darren Crotts. “We feel that everyone in our communi ty would benefit from this.” Excited about the program’s potential. Drew Sewell and Lorri Hayes, licensed clinical mental health counselors with Evexia Counseling and Con sultation, agreed to provide counseling for a reduced rate of $65 an hour. “I started Evexia because I saw a need that could be uniquely addressed through community and church part nerships,” said Sewell. “Smith Grove has gone above and beyond to step up, side by side with Evexia, and lead the charge in meeting people in Davie County where they are with compassionate ministry.

Journey Bowman was well on her way to spreading plenty of both at South Davie Middle when the schools were closed because of the corona virus. That didn’t stop the seventh grader. A $ 1,000 winner in the Da vie Respect Initiative youth challenge. Journey created the POP, or Power of Positivity, program. After bouncing the idea off of classmates and teachers, she worked to get a group of stu dents to be a part of the pro gram. At the same time, she be gan placing positive, creative notes in the lockers of students. “I wanted to write positive notes to make a difference in someone’s day and let them know they are important,” she k said. “In turn, they might also choose to make a difference in someone else’s day.” Her main goal was to spread kindness. The notes were writ ten anonymously. The group at South was still getting its feet wet when the stay-at-home order was put into effect. “In the last group that I worked with at school, there was a young man who was not always very optimistic. Yet, he wrote as many positive notes as he could in the time we had,” she said. “There was another student who was very shy; writing the notes seemed to really help her open up.” POP, she said, turned out to be a win-win for those writing the notes and those receiving them. Journey and others kept their eyes out for students and staff who seem to need a little extra encouragement. For example, one teacher was getting ready to have surgery and the POP group wanted to send her get- well messages. They were in spiring, the teacher said. Even after the governor’s orders to shut down schools. Journey remained determined and found more creative ways to spread p>ositivity. She sent messages to all staff members at a local senior liv ing facility, and is creating thank you posters for local es sential workers. “I think even if I can’t see their faces when they read the Please See Words- Page 4 Journey Bowman brightens someone’s day with positive words. 2 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 28, 2020 Editorial Page DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 28,2020 - 3 Yearning for In The Mail some more Democrats nasty on Facebook live music So we’re in another phase of reopening the economy from the coronavirus. More businesses are open. More could open, but aren’t. We only hope it’s because the owners are waiting for a full reopening before they deem it profitable enough to welcome customers, and not be cause they’ve lost too much and are calling it quits. Now, let the politics begin. Or should I say, let the poli tics go full steam ahead - which they will. Reopening the economy is already becoming a Republican vs. Democrat thing. Just remember, there are plenty of Republicans out there who believe in science and the unknown of a virus to think we’re rushing into this, that reopening now will only cause more people to get sick and die. Also remember, there are plenty of Democrats out there who from the start didn’t like the government tell ing them what they could or couldn’t do (Sounds a lot like Republicans, doesn’t it?). Some believe in herd men tality, some believe that the whole thing is blown out of proportion, that the restrictions may be worse than the unknown outcome, that it’s worth the risk to reopen and see what happens. Why masks and social distancing and hand washing and not touching our faces? That seems to be about all we know to do. This virus is a tricky one, and one we know little about. We know how a virus spreads, and those things help prevent the spread. It’s that simple. Will all of the precautions make a difference? It will be hard to tell. Who knows what the results would have been if nothing was done, or if less was done. We’ll never know. ••• I’m wondering how long many places will be able to survive without customers. I know the big movie theaters will make it. Profits will be down, they will experience losses, but they’ll make it. Local gyms may not. Local music venues may not. Both operate on small profit margins. Close them down for months, and the owners may not be able to re-open. I’m not a gym guy myself, but they should be allowed to open with proper sanitary procedures and numbers of patrons allowed inside. Working out is not only good for the physical body, but it helps relieve stress and other mind disorders. Sure, you can work out at home, but some people need that extra incentive of having others see or know what you’re doing. Sounds silly, but it’s real. Those music venues are another story. Even Four Oaks Event Center in Mocksville has been closed - and is still closed per the governor’s orders. There’s something about live music - experienced with others - that make us feel better. Four Oaks put more than its share of local talent on the stage for folks to enjoy. We hope they can open again soon, and rock Mocksville like it deserves to be rocked. It reminds me of a Guy Clark/Verlon Thompson song about 40-something venues where they played their mu sic. I had been to several, but the Down Home Pickin’ Par lor (Now Just the Down Home) in Johnson City, Tenn. has to be right up there among my favorites of all time, along with the Cook Shack in Union Grove (One of the best concerts I’ve ever seen was Verlon Thompson at that venue.). The Down Home still operates, but with limited music nights. The Cook Shack no longer hosts concerts. We missed MerleFest, and chances are those huge pavilions that host concerts will not do so this summer unless at a much lower capacity, which is fine with me. Although the first concert stage I ever saw live must have been 100 yards away at the August Jam at the Charlotte Motor Speedway in 1974,1 prefer to sit closer to the band these days. I like to see their faces, watch their hands, feel their emotions. It’s the smaller venues like Four Oaks and Muddy Creek and the Ramkat that we’ll miss the most. The best concerts I’ve ever seen were at smaller venues, and each was packed with patrons. Virtual concerts may be the thing for the summer of 2020, but it just isn’t the same. Seeing a live performance - with others who enjoy the same thing - is something that cannot be replaced. - Mike Barnhardt DAVIE COUNTY JT USPS 149-160 171 S. Main St., P.O. Box 99.

Box 99, Mocksville, NC 27028 7 V To the editor: Do Democrats use Trump as an excuse to treat people they don’t agree with rudely and nasty? Last week I saw several Facebook posts from Sen. Joyce Krawiec such as a photo at a local store that had opened; the photo was a picture of the store that had one worker in it, but the senator wasn’t in it herself. The comments on the thread were harsh “Where is her mask?’’ “This is friggen idiotic.’’ Another post sharing an article from Charlotte Observer that estimated active co rona virus patients in North Carolina received a comment that said, “Keep working at your propaganda!” Finally, a post about abortions is not essential got a ton of hate com ments such as “Evil witch.” You could go on Facebook and read all day hateful, crude, and nasty comments made to the senator. But if we Severing partnership a mistake To the editor: I was excited to hear the news that the Humane Society of Davie County is getting a great opportunity to move into a 5,000 square foot space on Main Street in Mocksville. What a great gift for the county that they can help our ani mal shelter even more. I was disheartened to see the Davie County Animal Ser vices decided they want to do adoptions in-house again. Why on Earth would they refuse the help of the Humane Society who has this exceptional opportunity to help on a greater scale? The Humane Society of Davie County has gotten our shelter to an amazing 93% save rate. The only reason I can fathom animal control being comfortable with severing this partnership is if saving the animals is not their same priority, which is truly upsetting. We do not have room for regression back to their former save rate. Keep humane society as primary adoption arm To the editor; I am a resident of this community writing to express my sincere hope that the Humane Society of Davie County stays the primary adoption group for our county shelter. What a difference they have made taking our county to a 93% save rate. Our Humane Society has raised so much money for medical care for our county animals ($86,646 is staggering) in 2019. It doesn't make sense that animal control would want to take this job back over when the hu mane society is making such great strides in helping rescue and home so many animals. I hope the sheriff and animal control really think this through and reconsider this decision. The most animals that animal control has ever been able to save when they were the primary adoption arm for our county was 47% in 2016. It makes no sense to change a system that is obviously The Literary Corner Renegade Writer’s Guild “Whispering Spirit” By Stephanie Williams Dean I’ve had no complaints. For me, the unwelcome visitor that’s plagued our lives has been more like a divine Spirit quietly whispering in my ear. The carrier of death is a de cision-maker of who departs and who remains, demanding respect, commanding compliance and subservience. I had no problem obeying. There were far too many in sults to be carelessly flippant with lack of regard for those so passionately stripped from life. How dare I ignorantly ignore those whose loved ones were snatched away in the blink of my eye. I embraced the Spirit. Tamed by the unyielding pres ence, I turned toward Him, and with bowed head, dropped to a knee. The time was a gift, and I recognized it as such. The unwelcome visitor changed many lives. The Spirit changed mine. “The Other Side of Town” By Linda H. Barnette When I was growing up in Mocksville, the town was divided into two sections almost totally by race. Keep in mind that I was a child in the 1940s before the Civil Rights Movement of the 196Os. Whites and blacks went to differ ent schools and used separate public facilities. If a black person wanted to order food at a restaurant, he had to do so at the back door and wait to pick it up. This was just the way it was, and I had no reason to think it strange. When I was 5 years old, I heard children playing in the woods behind my grandfather’s house and ran over to join them as they played “Ring around the Rosie.” After a few minutes, my mother appeared, took me by the hand, and escorted me back to my grandfather’s house. She did not say a word, and I was clueless. When I was perhaps 9 years old or so, my aunt took me to the Princess Theatre uptown as she did almost every Sat urday afternoon to the 25 cent movie. One particular week the movie was called “Stars in my Crown,” in which there was a vivid scene in which KKK members rode up and dragged an old black man out into his yard and were going to hang him because he couldn’t pay his rent. However, the preacher intervened, and the hanging did not ever happen. switched roles and a Republican made comments such as Trump, Tillis or Virginia Foxx, they would be deemed ir responsible, pathetic, and nasty. Sen. Krawiec has been in the legislature for three terms, where she is in 13 different committees and has introduced or sponsored 85 bills in the 2019-2020 session. On top of being a hardworking state senator, she is vocal about her faith, pro-life, pro-gun, and more. I keep asking myself this question whenever I see her posts: why are people (mainly Democrats) rude, degrading, nasty, and immature to a respectable woman? Is this what Terri LeGrand sup ports? Does Terri LeGrand encourage attacks on the most honorable woman senators in North Carolina? Will Terri LeGrand condemn the comments of hatred from her sup porters? John Moncrieff, Clemmons Also, to take on more work in our county - how much more money will that cost the taxpayers? We are all scratch ing our heads at the logic (or lack thereof) in this decision made by DCAS and the sheriff. We hope they reconsider and take the Humane Society of Davie County's generous offer to continue to be the adopters for our county shelter. They are clearly dedicated based on their level of effort with marketing, raising funds ($86,646 in medical support last year), and involving the community of volunteers to be a part of the process. HSDC volunteers have contributed in a huge way to the quality of life of the animals while in the shelter, as well as assisting with marketing and fundraising - and none of this cost taxpayers a dime. Sheriff Hartman, this is a huge mistake if you don't re consider your piosition and listen to your constituents. Ryan Froelich, Mocksville such a successful resource for our community. Our family has first hand knowledge of the great work of the Humane Society of Davie. Ten years ago we adopted our beloved Farrah, a mixed breed dog who has become such a trea sured and beloved member of our family. She is the best dog, so kind and gentle and loving - and most certainly looked over because she has some pit bull in her blood. However, I feel certain Humane Society of Davie County workers were able to witness firsthand her loving personal ity and luckily we found her for our home. Their patience and dedication and commitment to finding animals homes makes all the difference in these wonderful creatures liv ing or dying. We are so grateful to have Farrah and for the Humane Society of Davie County for rescuing her. Let's hope they can continue to do their very important and much needed work for our community. Leslie Newsome, Advance Bella Doub, a fourth grade student from Pin ebrook Elementary School, earned $200 as first place winner in the N.C. Soil & Water Conservation 4th Grade Poster Contest in Ra leigh on April 16. Bella was one of eight fourth grade state-level con testants after winning Da vie’s competition and the 12-county Area 8 contest. The topic of the poster con test wa.s “Wetland are Won derful!". "Competition is so strong, winning students frequently do extensive research and weave general conservation measures and the work of the state's 96 soil and water conservation districts into the body of their posters,"’ said Frankie Singleton, Da vie district resource special ist. The poster contest is sponsored on the local level by soil and water conserva tion districts and their as sociation, and organized at the state level by the N.C. Division of Soil and Water Conservation.The contest is one of many educational op portunities offered through out the year by the Davie County Soil and Water Con servation District. For information on local speech, essay and poster contests; an environmental science competition called the Envirothon; educational field days and Project Food, Land and People, call the Davie Soil and Water Con servation District at 669- 751-5011. Luckily, my parents were good Christian people and progressive thinkers; therefore, race was never discussed negatively in our home. So it never occurred to me that things were unfair. It was, again, just the way things were, and we had no idea that everybody in town was not ok with the status quo. Later, I graduated from Davie High School and then went on to Catawba College in Salisbury and then to grad school at the University of Tennessee. At UT I encountered a few people of different races and from other parts of the world for the first time. The men who lived in the house beside of us were all from the Middle East, and were per fect gentlemen at all times, even helping us shovel snow and escorting us girls home from the library at night. They often proposed to us in jest because they wanted to become American citizens. Life went on, and although I kept up with the news and was a fan of both John Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr., we were busy with other things. It was not until I taught in high school in Fayetteville and at Fayetteville State University that I had students of color, young and old, and in a military setting, from all over the world. It was wonderful experience for me and one that opened my eyes to the “All men are created equal” phrase in a whole different light. Last month one of the people that I loved most in the world passed away at the age of 94. She was a lady of col or who ironed my clothes for many years not because she needed the money but because that was her dearly loved hobby. When her husband died, I was invited into the room where her children were making plans for his funeral, and I always felt like her seventh child. Even though I told her many times to call me Linda, she continued to refer to me as “Miss Linda,” as I imagine she was taught as a child. I know that she knew in her heart that she was always and will be forever in my heart as “Miss Rebecca.” As it happened and as a great gift, I happened merely by chance to see “Stars in my Crown” listed in the tv guide last week, and after more than sixty years understand why I was so moved by it as a child. It was a great example of social injustice, which I abhor on all levels. So you can see that my journey to the other side of town has been a wonderful adventure.

I feel compelled to come up with something different to say so to make sure noth ing has gone unsaid, but, when talking about a person that exudes admirable char acter naturally, we know for sure it will follow her wher ever she goes while still making a difference in her new journey. Congratulations Kerry Blackwelder on your much desei^ed retirement. The amount of love, ex pertise, focus, tenacity and genuine attention you have extended to your students and their families during your long career at Coolee mee Elementary School ha.s indeed left an impression that will last infinitely. Kerry, your National Board Certification in read ing, being a certified Hill- RAP mentor and multiple times received Cooleemee Elementary Teacher of the year is not surprising. You will be greatly missed but never forgotten. You’re a giver and not a receiver, but this is all about you, much love and appre ciation is coming your way. Just read some of the things her family, col leagues and families of stu dents said. “Everything she does is an effort to find new ways to teach and reach a child or help a family or co-worker,” said husband, Chad Black welder. “I guarantee you can’t find anyone more committed to their career. There will always be a piece of her heart at CES and with every student she has ever had in her class.” It all started early, accord ing to her mother, Gwen Booker, who said Kerry didn’t want a play house when she wa.s 9, she wanted a school house in the back yard complete with desks and a blackboard. Two younger neighbor girls were her first “students”. “From that poing on, teacher was her vocation and her love. She never looked back.” Her mother remembers talking to Kerry about the pay situation for teachers, and she told her daughter there were two kinds of jobs. “One job you make bunches of money and hate every minute you put into that job. the other job you wake up happy an eager to get to work and your ac complishments are your rewards. We all know what you chose and why." “She cares about the staff at our school and our kids more than anyone,” said Rebecca O’Neal. "I don’t know of anyone who has made a larger im- DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD.

Your compassion fo rstudents, colleagues and community i.s ever present throughout everything you do.” “Her personality lights up the entire school,” said Amanda Emert. “I wish we could bottle up just a fraction of your knowledge to keep for fu ture students who will nev er get to come to see Mrs. Blackwelder,” said Amy Stokes. “You have poured more than your whole heart into the children at Coolee mee Elementary." "Her students know they are her kids and know she gives them the very best of herself each day,” said Christy Nichols. "Kerry is an outstand ing educator who pous her heart and sould into teach ing each day. She is also a true mentor who ha.s guided and inspired so many of us to be better teachers,” said Stephanie Steele. Those accolades for her peers go on and on. So does the list from par ents of her students. From the family of Colton O’Neal: “The love and courage you show our children is unreal. You defi nitely define the true mean ing of what a teacher is. You have been a rock for Colton and an outlet to go to when he needed it most. You could put a smile on his face on the days he struggled the most and built his confi dence up to succeed." From the family of Dal las Simms: “She not only helped him academically but she helped him build his confidence up. She was a teacher that he couldn't wait to get to her class because no matter what kind of day he was having, good or bad, she always made him feel excited and good about him self.” And from her daughter, McKenzie: “My mom is one of the most loved people I have ever met. My mom is what every child wants their teacher to be like, but I’m just so blessed and thankful beyond words that 1 get to call her not only my teacher forever, but also my mom and my best friend,” Kerry Blackwelder, Tammy Lagle and Amy Stokes dress as flies to get students excited about reading.

The Tar Heels were on a spring break road trip that en capsulated the highs and lows of competitive sport.s. There was a dramatic 3-2 win over national power Tennessee in Knoxville followed the next night by a humbling loss to Lipscomb in Nashville. After the game, the team bus meandered the roads between Nashville and Char lottesville as the team headed toward an ACC series against ■Virginia. But the players sensed there wa.s something else going on. During the ride, the coaches were on their cell phones and speaking to one another in hushed tones. Somewhere in Tennessee, the bus pulled over and the players were told to exit while the coach es and staff huddled amongst themselves. When the players reboarded, they were given the news that no athlete want.s to hear. Their season was over - a victim of the CO VID-19 virus. A similar scene played out a thousand times throughout the country, including in Greens boro, site of the ACC basketball tournament. Just like that, the career of the Advance native and her senior teammates appeared to be over. Feb. 5, 1998: North wins wrestling battle with South Editor's note: While sports is on hold, we take a look at some memorable mo ments in Davie County sports history. By Brian Pitts Enterprise Record In a North Davie-South Davie wres tling tug of war, the Wildcats made the right moves at the end and survived a pulsating 40-34 decision in front of a raucous crowd at South. South coach Matt Wilson, whose Ti gers closed with a 9-4 record in what was supposed to be a rebuilding year, said the intense duel will go down as one of the all-time greats. “We’ve had a lot of com petitive matches, but that was the closest one I’ve ever had with (North coach Ron Kirk),” 'Wilson said. “I think we were both sweating at the end of this one.” In a struggle that featured six lead changes, nothing was settled until the second-to-last match, at 191 between South’s AJ. Scales and North’s Danny Miller. With North holding a 37-28 lead, the Wildcats needed a win to cement vic tory, while South needed to claim the final two weight classes. The match appeared headed for a winner-take-all showdown at heavyweight when Scales forged a 6-5 lead with under 20 seconds left in the third period. But Scales was called for his second stalling violation, tying the score, and Miller got a takedown at :04 to seal Hutcherson was a senior in 2020. She’ll have another senior season in 2021. During the agonizing weeks that followed, shock and disap pointment gave way to optimism and hojje. There was talk that spring sfxtrts athletes might be given another year of eligibility. In describing those uncertain times, Hutcherson shared her thoughts. "It was hard to comprehend at first,” she said. "The underclass men rallied around the seniors and were amazingly supportive. I truly felt that the NCAA would do the right thing. I couldn't imagine that thi.s wa.s the end.” It would be several more weeks before Hutcherson learned whether she would ever be able to wear the Tar Heel uniform again. Campbell, the daughter of Jim and Elizabeth Hutcherson, ha.s lived her life in Advance. The third of four children, and the only girl, she grew up playing baseball with her brothers. But while other girls were playing softball. Campbell was mixing it up with the boys and more than holding her own. In fact, she wa.s becoming a star on the diamond. Summers were filled with travel baseball tournaments and all-star apfjearances for her team, the Clemmons Canes. She wa.s the only girl on the team, but no player wa.s more talented. By the time she wa.s 14, her school in Forsyth County told her she wa.s not permitted to play on the baseball team - not because she wasn't good enough, but because she was a girl. Devastated by the news, Hutcherson transferred to For syth Country Day. While there, she compiled a remarkable career a.s a softball and basketball play er. On the hardw<x>d, Hutcherson wa.s the team's leading scorer and an all-conference performer three years a.s a 5-3 point guard. She surpassed the 1 ,(XM)-point thresh old a.s a junior. And although she would also be a four-time all-conference softball player and two-time all-state selection, the transition from baseball to soft- ball presented several challenges. She initially struggled grip ping the larger ball and adjust ing from her "baseball swing." Nick Naylor of South Davie cross-faces North Davie’s Colt Stanley. his 8-6 win. "Danny did good," Kirk said. “I felt confident if it would have gone down to the heavyweights. Chris Nichols had already beaten (South’s Adam Barber) one time, but I knew that would be close.” As it turned out, it wasn’t close. Barber pinned Nichols in the second period. North (14-0 overall, 11-0 Piedmont Middle School Conference) delivered Kirk his eighth undefeated season in 18 years - but just barely. The Wildcats fell in several matches that Kirk expected to win, turning a presumed North romp into a thriller. “It was a good one,” Kirk said. “They wrestled well, we wrestled good in spots. But we lost several weight classes that I thought we'd win. We lost at 103 by a point. We lost at 154 and we had the guy on his back and could have pinned him just as easy as he pinned us. I thought we'd win at heavyweight. If we would have won those, that’s a 30-point swing right there.” North took a 9-0 lead on Tyler Black's pin and Josh Stanley’s 8-2 decision. The Tigers roared back, taking the next four matches. In the most exciting match of the day. South’s Jacob Gamer rallied to knock off Adam Sain 3-2. Then Sammy Me Ewin shocked everyone with a 17-second pin Instead of hitting curveballs that sink, she had to learn to hit rise balls. Fortunately, she wa.s a quick study. She made the transi tion playing for her high school team and then in the summer for her travel team, the Carolina Cardinals. During her junior year at For syth Country Day. Hutcherson led her team to the NCISAA 3.A state championship and before graduating she had been named the conference's offensive and defensive player of the year. She was also honored a.s the FCDS female athlete of the year. During one historic season. Hutcherson achieved an amazing .635 batting average and a .981 slugging per centage as the team's shortstop. By the time Hutcherson had finished her high school fresh man year, it was apparent she had the talent to someday play at the college level. As a basket ball player, that probably meant attending a Division 11 or III school. But as a softball player, the sky wa.s the limit. Though both of her parent.s graduated from Wake Forest, being a De mon Deacon was not in the card.s as they do not have a softball program. She started attending softball camps at U.NC and after one such camp following her sophomore year, she received a scholarship offer from Hall of Fame Coach Donna Papa, who ha.s guided the Tar Heel program for 35 years. During the fall of her junior year, Plea.se See UNC - Page B3 against Clint Stanley, Nick Naylor steam rolled 17-6 and .Michael Clement prevailed 9-5, putting South ahead 16-9. From 132-154, the teams juiced up the suspense by swapping the lead five time.s Steven Stanley (pin), Chris Hauser (14 major decision) and Jon GotxJe (pin) won for North, and Joey Davis and Richart Blackman retaliated with pins for the Tigers who led 28-25 at that point. North grabbed the lead for good wher South forfeited to Cassidy .McMahan, anc Nick Raby's pin provided 37-28 breathing room. It was just the 10th loss in Wilson'? 69-match coaching career. "If we could have won this match, il would have pretty much redeemed the season,” he said. "But the showing that we had gave us a goexl feeling. We were in the hunt for all of them (the four losses totalling 32 points).” Notes: Kirk considered Andrew Ellis 9-5 loss to unbeaten Clement a marvelous showing. "He wrestled outstanding,” he said. "Andrew never gave up, and you could see Clement getting tired by the enc of the third because that's about as far a? he’s been pushed.” ... Wilson gave higl praise to McEwin, who found a starting spot when Cody Wright abruptly moved tc Ohio. "That’s one I didn’t think we’d win.' he said. "He’s been right there behind the starters the whole time. He’s wrestled Jacol so he knows what to do.” < B2 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 28,2020 DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, May 28, 2020 - B3 S PARKING LOT STRIPING Tax Preparation Service 36 Robinhood Qrde, Wimton-Salcfn.

Hutcherson made an immediate impact for the Tar Heels as a freshman, appearing in 54 games and starting 42 at first base. She proved to be a . stellar defensive player as she committed only two errors in 308 chances for a fielding percentage of .994. In her first career at-bat, she hit a double against Purdue. The team had a 40-21 record as it reached the ACC Tournament final before losing to perennial powerhouse Florida State. The season ended with an NCAA Regional loss to Ole Miss in Oxford. During her sophomore season. Hutcherson’s play ing time diminished a.s she appeared in 33 games with 25 starts. But during her junior year, she was back a.s a regular in the lineup with 57 appearance.s and 54 starts. The team sported a 38-20 record and was one win from a Super Re gional berth before losing to Tennessee in Knoxville. Hutcherson’s defensive prowess wa.s even recog nized by ESPN when an acrobatic diving catch was featured as one of the Top Ten Plays of the Day on SportsCenter. As a senior this spring, Hutcherson approached her final season with the ex citement and dread that all athletes experience when faced with the prospect of no longer being able to play the game they love. Though the team got off to an uncharacteristic 10-14 start, Hutcherson was a stalwart on the field. On defense, she committed an error in only one of the team’.s first 24 games. At the plate, she wa,s batting .341 and had a team-high on-base percentage of .472 Humane Society of Davie >HSOC County "Where Matching Pets & People Is our Business' 336.751.5214 wwwxlavlencliumane.org Adopt/Foster « Spay/Neuter - Rescue SS LAMBERT F I X E It A I.H O M E 635 Wilkesboro St. Mocksville, NC (336)751-1100 wwwJambertfuneralhomencxom OSBORNE’S raE& AUTOMOTIVE (336) 751-2220. 1083 Salisbury Road9 from Mocksville (Appx. 1/4 mOe Hom Davie High Schoo!)

And then it appieared to be over. No fanfare. No Senior Night. No chance to walk across the graduation stage at Kenan Stadium. The news that night from somewhere in Tennessee was devastating. The sea son was over and campus would soon be shut down. Following a remarkable athletic career that started at age 5, Hutcherson took some time to reflect on it all. “When I got to Chapel Hill, I was surrounded by 22 girls who were the best from their high schools and who expected to be a starter,” she said. “We be gan our mornings at 5:30, worked out for an hour and a half, went to morning classes, grabbed a quick lunch, went to the training room for an hour, practiced for several hours, rushed to tutoring and got home late to finish homework. Then we would wake up and repeat.” Then add in games, travel and community ob ligations and there is little time for anything else. One thing she had enjoyed outside of softball is the “Lil Sis” program where young girls can sign up and be assigned to a player on the UNC softball team. The girls get invitations to events, team merchandise and personalized letters throughout the year. There i.s no denying, however, that the hectic schedule can take it.s toll physically. Hutcherson ha.s undergone two shoulder surgeries to repair her labrum and another proce dure to repair her bicep.s tendon. Each procedure required extensive rehab during two separate fall seasons to get ready for spring competition. But as of March 12, she was healthy and playing the best softball of her life - until fate intervened. Over the next few weeks, Hutcherson thought back about how far she had come as an athlete. She remembered those days as a little leaguer and all of the sacrifices others made for her. There were those in the Davie County community who support ed her; the teachers who inspired her; the coaches that volunteered their time for her; and especially her parents who seldom missed a game. “My parents had to jug gle multiple kids’ practices and make sure I was where I needed to be - whether it was softball or basketball - with the right uniform in the right city,” she said. “They missed vacations and spent a lot of money just to provide the travel opportunities for me. Even when I was at Carolina, they rarely missed a game, traveling all over the coun try and beyond, including California, Puerto Rico and Mexico. It was really sfjecial seeing them in the stands, especially when we were on the road.” Often times, the NCAA i.s criticized for making decisions that do not always appear to be in the best interests of the ath letes they serve. But thi.s time they got something right. In April, the NCAA granted another year of eligibility to senior spring sports athletes, thus giving Hutcherson and others like her another opponunity to experience their senior year one more time. Just last week, Hutcherson earned her degree in Ex ercise and Sport.s Science. This fall she will return to UNC in a graduate program and in the spring will suit up for the Tar Heels for one more season. Her plans beyond are to serve a,s a volunteer coach at a Division-I university or pursue a career working with individuals with spe cial needs. Whichever path she pursues, with her talent and drive, Hutcherson is destined to achieve great things.

Sheffield-Calahaln Looking forward to some life in downtown Mocksville By Brenda Bailey Sheffield-Calahaln Correspondent Congratulations to the following couples who have upcoming anniversaries: Pam and Eddie McDaniel who will celebrate on May 30; and Fred and Judy Beck on June 3. Birthday wish es to Jackson Williams who will celebrate on June 1. If you would like a birthday or anniversary listed, please do not hesitate to contact me. Carson Clark enjoyed an evening out with his par ents, Cody and Haley Clark and grandparents, Greg and Renee Clark at Scoops on Sunday. After eating his ice cream, he got to ride “San dy” the horse. A few days ago, I was cleaning out a desk draw er and came across a Win ston-Salem Journal column dated Feb. 15, 2004. Now that tells you how often I clean my desk. Kim -Un derwood, Journal reporter, did an interview with Jack Barker pertaining to his longtime career in music and John Henry and Eth el Reeves, owners of the Sheffield Music Hall. The column was titled “Fine Pickin’’. If you read my col umn regularly, you know that each year a benefit fea turing Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver is held to raise money for a seminary music student. Mr. Barker’s chil dren, Alan Barker and Ann Scruggs do this to honor their dad. Jack states in the interview that he never had money for lessons, so all in struments were self taught. He shared his love of music and instrumental talent with his family and others. When this article was written his band, the Harmony Grass Boys, featured himself, his brother-in-law Al Sutphin, Sonny Carter, Junior Jones and Willis Trivette. They were the house band every Friday and Saturday night at the music hall and the fea tured band once a month. John Henry and Ethel Reeves opened the Sheffield Music Hall on Friday and Saturday nights in 1997. The featured band started playing at 7:30, but most BiS' Carson Clark enjoys riding “Sandy” at Scoops in downtown Mocksville. folks came around 6 or so to get their seats. The stage had a backdrop of a scene with a log cabin backed by a mountain with a waterfall that was painted by Ethel Reeves. Other walls have murals painted by Ethel. She was a gifted and talent ed lady. In 2004, John Henry stat ed the admission was $3 on County Line Friday and $5 on Saturday. When a person turned 80, they got in free from then on out, and those with dis abilities got in free. Coffee was 35 cents and popcorn 50 cents. Can you imagine this today? So many in the photos are no longer with us, such as Tommy Braun, Frances Clodfelter, Fred Cape, Hubert Reeves, John Henry and Ethel Reeves, Jack Barker, Al Sutphin, Junior Jones, Sonny Car ter, Bobby Hayes, Paul Lambert, Janet Poole, Lo rene Barker, Wanda Sut phin, Don Teague, Harold Thompson, Becky Hill, and many more. When I think of the mu sic hall, there are several name.s of those that were always there dancing and supporting the musicians and the Reeves family, Mary Teague, Don and Bet ty Stroud, Polly Thompson, Yvonne Richardson, Loften Hill, Joanie Bailey, Jack Bailey, Dot Keller, JoAnn Renegar and her grand children, Willis and Judy Trivette, Jody Blackwelder and parents WH and Mar gie, Wade Reeves, Ricky Swisher, Helen Bulla, John and Lynne Powell, Billy Taylor, Lynn Wall, JB and Dottie Rash, Nancy Pea cock, and so many other folks who came each aFri- day and Saturday night (in cluding myself), and most of all, the musicians who helped make it a special part of the Sheffield community for so many years. I wish I could have list ed everyone’s name, but my article would have been 15 pages long. John Henry and Ethel provided a place where peo ple young and old could go dance or listen to great mu sic and visit with friends. The love they had for this community was over whelming, and the talent of musicians like Jack Barker, Al Sutphin and many more will live on forever. When I wa.s reading the column, I couldn’t help but sing “Oh, it’s good to be back home again”. Many of these folks are now “back home” again. The two pho tos this week are from 2003, month unknown. I wish I’d kept better records. Rowan Fay, pastor of Community Covenant Church, and wife Judy are being missed in the commu nity as they have moved to Florida.

Publish 05/07 05/14. 05/21.05/28 A number of people have commented about needing a country ham fix again. We hop>e that we. can have breakfast again before too long. Toni Horton and her hus band, Tom, moved to Flor ida several months ago to care for Toni’s mother. We are sad to report that Toni’s mother passed away recent ly. We send Toni and all the members of her family the sincere sympathy of the p>eople in Pino. The warm weather last week set me to thinking about the need for a trip to Myrtle Beach, where mem bers of our family have gone several times per year for many years. I even went to the website of my favor ite hotel, and Io and behold, there was a comment there from a guest who had been bitten by bedbugs. That comment and the picture of the bug bites quickly cooled my need to visit that hotel where I had stayed many times. The night after the above experience, I got up to make one of the several trips I make each night to the bathroom. From my bed I reached out without turning on the light, found my walk er, made my way to the bath room and returned without any light and any problem. At that point I thought, right here is where I need to be. I am able to move around our house without turning on the lights and without upsetting the receptors in my brain, which means I can go right back to sleep. So, for now I am content to listen to the rain on the roof on our Pino house instead of listening to the waves at Myrtle Beach. Also a friend who lives at Myrtle Beach said that last weekend there was terri ble— in fact, it wa.s as bad as or worse than the Fourth of July. I guess too many peo ple needed to feel the sand and hear the waves. I have decided I can survive quite well right here at my home in Davie County where ev erything is on one floor and I can move around safely - even in dark. All of that leads me once more to give advice, which old people are prone to do. Of course, we know that no one will listen, but we give Public Notices Public Notices it anyway. When you build a house, remember you will probably be old one day and will bless the. day that you decided to build a house with everything on one level. The reason you will be happy with your deci sion is because walkers and wheelchairs don’t do well with any kind of steps. Our house is all on one floor, which is no doubt boring, but which serves us quite well now that we need help to walk. Put your laundry room on the same floor. Our laundry room has a wash er, dryer, 1950s television, : which serves as a table for the micro-wave, and room for the ironing board, which has probably not been used in 35 years, but it makes a great place to set things - that is a perfect laundry room for us at this age and stage. I am sure that you will not pay attention to this oc togenarian, and I will not be around when you say, “I wish I had listened.” Recently one of my chil dren said, “We never lis tened to Mama, but she was always right.” Public Notices Lawncare & La.ndscaping Mowing Fertilizing Mulching Pine Straw Hedge Trimming Stump Grinding Garden Prepping 704-437-1552 You are always welcome at First United Methodist Church 310 North Main Street Historic Downtown Mocksville Contemporary Worship 8:45 a.m. Traditional Worship 1055 a.m. Sunday School for all ages 9:50 a.m. Weekly Prayer Service-Thurs.

We Support You! A 0® The COVID-19 pan demic and the shut downs it has caused should bring an increased appreciation for business es and people that are of ten taken for granted. Without truck driv ers, store shelves would be much more barren. Without cleaning crews to disinfect homes and businesses, it’s hard to provide cus tomers with the reassur ance that it’s OK to “reopen”the economy. Josh Bergeron Local restaurants contin ue to feed the community in new ways, including some who’ve created a de livery service. And while larger stores like Food Lion and Walmart remain busy, local landmarks like McLaughlin’s Grocery in Salisbury’s West End are just as critical in feeding the community. Those are just four of the many stories you’ll find in this special sec tion that we’re calling “Salute to Service.” Sister newspapers — the Salis bury Post, Stanly News and Press, Davie County Enterprise-Record and Clemmons Courier — have collaborated to tell the stories of just several of the many people and businesses in our region who have been essential during the ongoing pan demic. All of our com munities have benefited from the continued operation of essential busi nesses and workers during an uncertain time. Each of the communi ties we write about has been affected in different ways by the coronavirus. In some, case numbers are low, and the economic toll is far greater. In oth ers, there are significant concerns about a wide spread virus outbreak as well as the economic toll from mandatory shut downs. But all of our commu nities have benefited from the continued operation of essential businesses and workers during an uncer tain time. And the people keeping our communities going are regular folks who are well-deserving of recognition. Some of the essential workers are recipients of public gratitude on a semi-regular basis — to include first responders. But the nursing assistants, nursing home employees, truck drivers and com mercial cleaning crews are just now getting their due. Usually, their jobs are not glamorous. In Salisbury, I’ve been particularly grateful for the people who keep store shelves stocked after customers descended on grocery stores to fill their pantries as well as their bathroom closets with toi let paper. Together, our newspa pers have worked to find a variety of people and plac es whose service is worth saluting. In Davie Coun ty, the sheriff’s office is helping to deliver meals. In Clemmons, Miranda Barneycastle’s work as a health care provider has always been demanding, but it’s more important now than ever. In Albe marle, Juliana Roberts writes for the Stanly News and Press about emergen cy medical technician Bri an Phillips, whose job is important every day. The pandemic, though, has added new challenges. The stories we’ve worked to gather is not intended to be comprehen sive. There are so many people who are working in the face of a virus about which much is still un known. Our newspapers hope that this special publica tion can serve as just a small sampling.

Her vision came to life in January 2020 when she opened Uwharrie Hearing Doctors with her husband. Gray. Uwharrie Hearing Doctors is Stanly County's only private, independent audiology practice. "Because we're independent, we're able to offer customized hearing solutions to fit every lifestyle and budget." says Dr. Wilson, "We've all heard the stories of hearing aids that end up in drawers. The truth is, there is no one-size-fits-all solution for hearing loss and when it's treated that way, results are usually poor." At Uwharrie Hearing, your experience will be unique and personal and you can rest-assured that the gold standards of hearing healthcare will always be upheld. During these difficult times. Dr. Wilson is especially concerned about how the hard-of-hearing population will cope with the COVID-19 pandemic. "Masks take away important lipreading and facial cues and they decrease sound pressure levels by 3-12 decibels. Additionally, since family members are not being allowed to accompany them to healthcare appointments, those who are hard-of-hearing may feel isolated with no one to help bridge the communication gap." To combat these communication barriers, Uwharrie Hearing staff are currently using masks with clear panels so patients can still use lip reading cues. Dr. Wilson is also offering healthcare communication packets with helpful written handouts free-of-charge. Uwharrie Hearing is currently open by appointment only. UWHARRIE 110 W.

She is a licensed prac ticing nurse with 10 years of experience, and she has been in her current role at Cadence for 15 months. While Barneycastle’s role as a health care provid er has always been demand ing, the challenges of work ing with elderly individuals during the pandemic has brought about many new demands and expectations. “My main responsibili ty is keeping the residents safe and healthy,” she said. “I am now having to imple ment many more safety re quirements.

When asked how she is taking care of herself, she said she enjoys spending time with her children who are 13 and 14. She enjoys camping as a way to relieve stress, but she has only been able to do this once over the past few months since parks have been closed due to the pandemic.

By Mike Barnhardt Davie County Enterprise Record MOCKSVILLE — One night in 2007, an explosion rocked the Davie Place nursing home. One person was dead and dozens of others injured as a fire swept through the home. Pa tients were being dragged out by their heels and left in the parking lot — wait ing for an ambulance to come from who knows where to take them to who knows where. Before the out-of-coun ty ambulances arrived to take these residents to their new facilities at about midnight there was an unseen group of heroes already at work, just down the street. These heroes were the pharmacists at Foster Drug Company, who were already filling prescriptions for each patient so they would be ready when they were transported. Suzanne Barnhardt and Mark White, local residents who came back to work at their hometown pharmacy, have been on the job for some 20 years. Neither considers them selves a hero, but they are to many of their cus- tomers. Foster Drug Compa ny is a busy place, filling some 700 prescriptions per day. Many of their clients are elderly, and prefer to walk into the drug store to pick up their monthly medicines. But Foster Drug closed the doors when the stay- at-home order was put into place. All prescrip tions are now handled via drive-thru. “As far as the day-to- day of what we do, there was little change,” Barn hardt said. “It has been / ROBIN SNOW / DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD f/ (.Continued from IOC busines.s as usual They (Customers) are reassured b>- the fact we re still open, trying to do business.” For those customers who may have a question about their medicines or its ef- fects? "All they have to do i.s yell at one of us and we’ll go out and talk to them." she said. "I haven’t seen a lot of people freaking out.’’ She remembers when the store’s founder, the late Bill Foster, asked her to come and work for him. "He said. 'Here, we do what it takes to take care of the customer.’’’ she said. Her father operated an even smaller pharmacy, so she liked that idea. She liked it even more after being on the job for a while. It was her father who urged her into the career. She wanted to be an interi or designer. He told her that was fine, but she needed a good career, as well. W’hite said he decided early on that he wanted to get into the health care field, but was not into "blood and guts." Both are graduates of the University of North Carolina School of Pharma cy. Both worked elsewhere before signing on at F’oster Drug. White started out working for Art Mercier at a small pharmacy in down town Mocksville. He knows the struggle of independent pharmacies. Not only are re-imburse- ment rates lower for these pharmacies, their cost is higher because they don’t buy in bulk, he said. He looks forward to the day when Foster Drug can again offer what small town pharmacies have of fered for years — a hand shake or a hug. "Our clientele and cus tomers are very loyal." Barnhardt said. "They don’t want to go anywhere else.” That’s because of the personal service. “That’s how he (Bill Fos ter) built the business, and we try to train our staff about good customer ser vice,” she said. !

As unemployment and layoffs continue to surge in the nation, trucks con tinue to move.

Little has changed with Williams’ role, except that deliveries have been conducted without any physical contact and tem perature checks are taken upon entering all loading and unloading docks. Kevin and Nadia Har grave both take on the road together as truckers and husband and wife. Kevin, 41, said he’s been driving for 10 months now, and “got his wife on board” a few months ago. Nadia, 39, served as a nurse for 17 years. After Kevin began trucking, Nadia said she prayed for affirmation from God that her time was up for being a nurse and that she needed do something else.

Their longest route so far has been from North Carolina to California, which took two full days to drive. While driving, truck ers have to monitor doz ens of gauges at all times, all while staying mentally focused and well rested enough to keep themselves and other vehicles safe. “Not getting enough rest can endanger others," Nadia said. She added that driv ing alongside her hus band has been “good and bad.” Good, because it’s her husband — and bad because it’s her husband. The couple has seen a lot of scenery, but stay-at- home restrictions across the nation haven't allowed for them to explore any of the areas they've driven through. Kevin said during the pandemic, some of his loads and routes have been scarce. Previously, he had been accustomed to driving up to 5,500 miles each week, but now he's been driving 3,500 to 4,500 miles per week. Most of the loads have been to Family Dol lar and Walmart with sup plies including wood, food, water, hand sanitizer and masks. Nonetheless, Kevin said he "enjoys being part of the help." Driving for so many hours at once can be hard on one’s body, Williams said. That’s why he appre ciates kind gestures from others. For example, since restaurants have been restricted to drive-thru, take-out and delivery only, Williams had to walk up to a KFC drive-thru window recently. A police officer approached him to let Wil liams know he was appre ciated before paying for his dinner. Another time, a woman was passing out fruit, which Williams ap preciated since it was a healthy snack to keep with him on the road. “That does a lot for someone like me,” he said. Williams said at this time, people have to un derstand that "we all have a job to do" and should ap preciate each other. He added that from truckers to nurses to teach ers, “we need each other.” PROUDLY SERVING ROWAN AND CABARRUS COUNTIES FOR 23 YEARS.

Until the previous few days and be cause of the state’s stay-at- home order, the restaurant has adopted curbside pick ups, take out and delivery orders. David Houchins and his wife, Jolene, who had been employed at the restaurant since it opened in 2014, bought the business in March, just a few days be fore the stay-at-home order took effect. Initially, the couple closed the restaurant, which is located at 1621 W. Innes St., until they decid ed how they would run the business moving forward. “It’s slowed down as far as sales go,” David said of running a business during such a crisis. “Our business change was trying to organize. We were not a mostly take out- type of restaurant. We had to adjust. We had to figure out how to do the norm for us,” Jolene said. She said the “new norm” for many people has been homeschooling their chil dren and conducting work meetings via Zoom video conferencing. Prior to the pandemic the couple knew their busy times of the day, but during the crisis their flow of customers changed. “Now, people are work ing from home and are leaving home. Everybody, I think is off schedule so it puts other places off sched ule,” she said. They opted for a no-fee delivery system and have mostly had orders from Novant Health Rowan Med ical Center and the Hefner VA Medical Center, often taking orders for a small number of people. One customer, who worked at a convenience store at U.S. 601, said she couldn’t leave the store and no other restaurant would deliver one order, except for the Houchins. The couple said they didn’t implement a mini mum delivery amount, but if someone with health is sues couldn’t safely leave their home and needed one sandwich, they made sure to deliver. They also sold bulk meat to a few customers that they delivered. One customer who had health issues bought meat for her family and a few others, and the Houchins were able to accommodate the delivery request. “We just try to accom modate our customers,” Jolene said. David added that they had to significantly reduce their staff. Sometimes, Da vid worked in the kitchen, Jolene maintained the reg ister and David’s mother would often answer the phone, which meant some deliveries were few and far between. A couple of employees opted to be laid off so that others could work. “That’s good to know that I have people here will ing to do that,” David said. The restaurant also ad justed its menu as the cost of meat increased as well as the cost of increased use of to-go boxes and gloves. The Houchins said they’ve also lost out on about 55% to 60% of reve nue because of events they would’ve taken part in were canceled. See Hoff'S, 19C Continued from 15C The first week that the restrictions loosened in phase 1, Jolene said, the restaurant’s customer base went elsewhere as other businesses like shopping malls and other similar stores began to open. A few days into the state enacting phase 2 of the saf er at home order, the couple removed a few tables inside the restaurant so that cus tomers could still be far ther than 6 feet distance from one another. The patio was already evenly spaced, Jolene said. They’ve planned to con tinue curbside and takeout for those customers who still don’t feel comfortable eating inside the restau rant. Jolene said she feels as though the restaurant’s patio will be where most people will flock to in the coming weeks because it is so open.

McLaughlin said the community support has helped the store keep go ing, and dedicated custom ers have been buying more than usual. Store hours had to be cut when some employees did not want to stay onboard during the pandemic. The shop still has its devotees. Butcher Johnny Mann has worked in a slew of different set tings, but McLaughlin’s is his favorite place to work, describing it as a pleasure to work there. “I’ve been cutting meat for 43 years,” Mann said. Mann said the biggest challenge for the store’s meat supply is the short age of beef, though oth erwise the product at the store has not been affect ed. Mann said most of the store’s products come from the state and it can get most of its products every week. “What we do here, we have products that the av erage supermarket don’t carry and we don’t have pre-packed products,” Mann said. “We cut on de mand.” The store sells meat products used in classic Southern dishes like pig trotters, oxtail and turkey necks. On the morning of May 20, the store was quickly selling its supply of oxtails. Most customers who come for turkey necks get them cut in half. “You still have a lot of people in society that like the old-style meats like pig feet, neck bones, ham hocks and a lot of markets have gotten out of carrying those particular products,” Mann said. “So we cater to people that desire that product.” Mann noted he sells See Meats. 21C CARL BLANKENSHJP/SALISBUP » POST Owner Harry McLaughlin working at the meat department in the back of the store.

By Charles Curcio Stanly News and Press ALBEMARLE — Essen tial workers whose efforts have gone on continuously throughout the COVID-19 pandemic have included many in the healthcare field whose buildings sit right around Atrium Health S\4«ly. One business right across the street from the hospital, along with its ma ny branches, also had to continue to serve the pub lic’s health needs. Pharmacists such as Andy Castelloe at Medical Pharmacy of Albemarle have supplied patients’ needs for regular and spe cialized medications. The first formula j^astelloe became a pharmacist in part because of his mother, who worked for years at the Montgom ery County Health Depart ment. One day, his mother mentioned to Castelloe he should become a pharma cist, a career he said never crossed his mind. “I wanted to be an archi tect the whole time I was in high school,” Castelloe said. “The more I thought about it, I was like, ‘It actually might be kind of cool.’ ” For Castelloe, the idea of hfijip able to go out and do good in the neighborhood was appealing. Andy Castelloe, blue shirt, at Medical Pharmacy in Albemarle, SUBMITTED PHOTO A prescription for success Graduating from West Montgomery High School in 1988, Castelloe continued his education at UNC-Chap el Hill for undergraduate work. He got through general and quantum chemistry but did not make it into UNC’s school of pharmacy because of his grades in a class he said weeds out a lot of people: organic chemis try. A change in professor made all the difference the second time around, allow ing Castelloe to get into the school of pharmacy on a second attempt. “Once I caught on to that, the rest of my college career actually blossomed. Sometimes it just takes a person a little bit of time to learn how to learn,” Castel loe said. The real-world formula Upon graduating from Carolina in its bicentennial year of 1994, he tried to find work in his home county, but there were only a hand ful of jobs and they were all taken. After having taken a job in Lexington with Rev- co and worked there two weeks, Castelloe’s district manager called him to let him know of a job in Albe marle which was his first choice. He moved to a Revco in 1996, but three years later was hired by George Har wood and started working for Medical Pharmacy. When introduced to Harwood, Don Bennett and Wayne Sasser, Castelloe said he had great respect for their business. “I knew they had a boom ing business for a drugstore back in the day,” Castelloe said. Castelloe also met his wife, Julie, at the same time, while she was teach ing in Montgomery County, when he came to work in Albemarle. The two have two daughters: Gretchen, who is a freshman at Wake Forest, and Laney, a soph omore who recently trans ferred from West Stanly to the University of North Carolina School of the Arts. Displaying his expertise The job of a pharmacist, in Castelloe’s case, is less about making or testing compounds and more about knowing how compounds work and interact with a human body. His role at Medical Phar macy, he added, is to mon itor and catch problems with interactions between compounds within a person. Most of the time, he add ed, he and his colleagues “are not sitting on the edge of their seat all the time,” saying most of the med icines they deal with are fairly benign. “The good thing about having been trained in pharmacy is you are in troduced to chemicals that have some problems,” Cas telloe said. When orders for those more dangerous substances come across their comput- ers,”the hair on the back of our head gets a feeling.” It’s at that time, Castel loe said, when he draws on his knowledge from See Pharmacy, 24c Salisbury’s Best Choice for Highest (Quality Floor St Upholstery Care Commercial and Residential Professional Steam Cleaning • Carpet - Tile Upholstery - Wood • Oriental Rugs (Pick-Up/Delivery available) FREE ESTIMATES SENIOR DISCOUNT wm SAFE » UKX INC.

Pharmacy Continued from 22C school to focus on not hurt ing someone, along with checking databases to en sure they are not doing any thing which would cause a problem. Day to day, Castelloe and the staff of the var ious Medical Pharmacy branches are filling pre scriptions doing work that “is not super glamorous.” Compounding, or mixing drugs together in the store, is less than 1% of Medical Pharmacy’s business. Some pharmacies do spe cialize in compounding, but it’s not really part of what Castelloe said happens in their local stores. What’s most important as a pharmacy, he said, was to make sure to give custom ers the high points of what they need to know about their prescriptions. “The best thing that you can always do with anybody in business is to make sure you present the information with a friendly smile,” Cas telloe said. Changing for the times Even with the differ ences in the coronavirus pandemic, Castelloe said change is regular in his industry, so a pharmacist has to “learn to go with the flow.” Medical Pharmacy be gan to realize in February when COVID-19’s outbreak started in Washington state that dealing with the virus was going to be something with which they would have to contend. Castelloe said the deci sion was made early to close foot trafflc in the store and just operate out of the park ing lot, which was difficult to decide because of how much the staff pride them selves on being hospitable. In the beginning of the pandemic, he said the staff was skeptical about how they would manage the sit uation, admitting the first couple of weeks kept ev eryone on edge. After that, though, it felt like normal. Early on, people were advised by state officials to stock up on medicines, so a lot of insurance companies gave provisions for custom ers to have 90-day intervals for their prescriptions. Hav ing to stock up that much made the first days very busy, Castelloe said. Working with suppliers was dicey initially, but af ter the initial push, business has been a little slower. “Luckily for me, 1 have the very best staff I can imagine,” he said. Staff have moved regis ters outside and had walkie talkies available for people to ask questions of the phar macists. Should a pharma cist need to walk outside, masks and gloves are made available. “All these people have just worked so hard at main- taining friendship (with customers). That’s what it’s all about,” Castelloe said. He could approach the job of pharmacist as a sci entist, he added, but in the end if you are not friendly to customers, you have not gained much at the end of the day. As of press time, Castel loe was hoping to be open to foot traffic by Memori al Day. He said decisions on being fully open will be based on the governor’s rec ommendations possibly on a day-to-day basis. During this time. Med ical Pharmacy has also stayed in touch with the lo cal community by catering lunch for the staff from lo cal restaurants about twice a week. “I’m Mom and Pops. I need to scratch the backs of folks (struggling),” he said, adding he feels his business is blessed to still be open when so many other local places remain closed for so long. He added he was proud of the community for how local businesses have ral lied around each other in support. “I’m just really proud of us.

MAY 28. 2020 ‘Two Worlds Colliding’: Pastor and EMT takes on COVID-19 \ Pastor and EMT Brian Phillips The Stanly County EMS station By Juliana Roberts Fnr the Stanly News and Press AFBEMARl^E — The dispatch was a cardiac ar rest. Police officers, fire fighters and paramedics rushed to the scene. Inside a small room, emergency medical techni cian Brian Phillips was on his knees performing chest compressions on a person who had just tried to end their life. “Here I was doing CPR on this basically naked stranger in a hotel room, while wearing my clerical collar and still in my church clothes,” Phillips said. He had already experi enced a full Sunday morn ing. As pastor of Holy Trin ity Reformed Church in nearby Concord, Phillips had been on his knees with his congregation in their weekly confession a few hours prior. After church, he and his family drove home. He took his German Shepard, Ajax, out for a walk when he re ceived the dispatch notifi cation of a cardiac arrest in his district just a few miles from his home, where the cardiac arrest victim lay. “As I was doing compres sions I looked down and I just saw the tab collar stick ing out of my pocket and it was just a really weird moment because normally when I’m working for EMS I know my shift is coming up; I’m prepared for it,” Phillips said. “It felt like those two worlds colliding.” From a young age, Phil lips said he wanted to work in emergency medicine. When planning his future, he saw himself in the mili tary as a combat medic and an eventual emergency room doctor, but his plan of action did not turn out ex actly as he thought. “I jokingly say God ru ined my plans,” Phillips laughed. He became a doctor — of souls. He has a bachelor’s degree in pastoral theol □ □ ogy, a master’s degree in theological studies, a mas ter’s degree in Christian and classical studies and a doctorate in classical ed ucation. “I have done this back wards,” Phillips said. “A lot of guys get older and then they go into pastoral min istry and will go through seminary when they’re in their 40s or 50s. I was just the reverse.” In 2018, after being the pastor of his own church for 10 years, Phillips was contacted by a U.S. Army recruiter and offered a chaplain position. Phillips said he did not think this would be the best position e srAi^iL^ EMS ■ a for him and his family at the time, but the offer again ignited his longstanding de sire to work in emergency medicine. “I thought may be there is some way I can work in emergency medi cine, without it being in the context of the military, and without me having to stop being a pastor, because I didn’t want to do that.” He did some digging. Phillips started EMT train ing in August 2018 and com pleted at the end of the year. He began working with the East Side Fire Department in Albemarle and was hired by Stanly County EMS in the summer of 2019. He believed that becoming an 00 PHOTO COURTESY OF BRIAN PHILLIPS EMT was a good entry to his lifelong desire to help people and practice emer gency medicine. The effects of COVID-19 have made Phillips face the virus not only on the front lines of the medical field but also with his congregation. Many other churches are leaving the practice of The Lord’s Supper out because church members are not gathered together physi cally, but Phillips and the church’s elders believed there to be no violation to their confessional stan dards in taking the Lord’s Supper through online plat- See EMT, 27C EMT Continued from 26C forms as long as it is given by the words of institution by an ordained minister and taken together as the whole body of Christ. “It’s certainly not per fect, but our belief has always been and still is. that the high point of the worship service is not the sermon, or the singing, or anything else, is when we gather at the Lord’s table; when we take communion together because that’s when we come to Jesus," Phillips said. Many churches are not meeting in person due to the statewide quarantine laws. Church goers across the area are resorting to drive-in services or using online platforms to hold their services. "There is no flattering way to put this, I'm sort of an old school kind of pastor. I’d rather be with people face-to-face," Phillips said. Honking an "amen" is not how his congregation is going about their services during COVID-19. As a pastor and EMT, Phillips not only serves people's souls but their life as well. “As a pastor, I am able to serve people and minister to them in ways I would not normally be able to. It may not translate into people showing up at church, but I am able to share the love of Christ and demonstrate it to people that I might not meet otherwise," he said. As an EMT, horrific scenes sometimes come with the job. He said po lice officers, firefighters, doctors, nurses, EMTs and many of those who work in emergency medical ser vices have to deal with very difficult situations. Work in the medical field requires a proper perspective. Phillips said it is not on ly the fact that these people see scenes that are disturb ing; it is also the emotional pain that they see people go through. "I'm not using the am bulance as a pulpit by any means," he said. "Being there for people and them knowing that I see the same things they do, I respond to the same calls. 1 think that means a lot to them, and they're far more willing to talk to me than they would be if I wasn’t there. It has been a wonderful opportu nity." While Phillips turned down being a chaplain in the army, as an EMT and pastor, he unofficially has the opportunity to function in that role for those that ask him to. On the frontlines of CO\'ID-19, Phillips contin ues to pursue his passion of medicine as well as pas- toring his church members though this time. Phillips works part-time Thankyou to each of you who have worked and continue to work the front lines everyday. Your devotion and courage will be remembered during this time.

Phillips commented on his experience working as an EMT especially with the threat of COVID-19 in the picture, saying, "It does kind of wear you down at times. It’s a good job. Good work. It’s important work.

Phillips said that in the case of a cardiac arrest, the patient has to be cov ered with a plastic sheet in order to protect the health care provider from risk of contracting the virus. All EMS personnel en tering any scene with a pa tient have to wear personal protective equipment, in cluding gloves and a mask.

One group that has been hit especial ly hard is teachers, who — in a short period of time — had to transform the way they interacted with and taught their students. Angela Almond is an educator who has been teaching longer than her seventh-grade students at Albemarle Middle School have been alive. But nothing in her 16 years with Stanly Coun ty Schools could have prepared Almond, 42, for the pandemic and the life-changing ripple ef fects it’s caused for school systems and teachers around the country. Though her princi pal sent an email to staff March 13 warning of the possibility of school clo sures, it wasn’t until Al mond received an email from Superintendent Dr. Jeff James that weekend that her fears were con firmed; All public schools across the state were closed for two weeks, per an executive order issued by Gov. Roy Cooper. All the comforts she had known for 16 years as a teacher were suddenly, in one fell swoop, ripped away from her. “My heart dropped in to my stomach and there were a lot of tears shed that weekend,’’ she said up on learning the news. Ev ery time Cooper extended the order, more tears were shed, Almond said. Cooper eventually made the move to close schools for the remainder of the academic year. James said the school system had already been preparing for remote learning. The school sys tem introduced virtual learning opportunities during the February school board meeting to help combat loss of in structional time due to in clement weather. But SCS was likely not prepared for a pandemic that has forced schools to close for months. For Susan Haltom, a first-grade teacher at East Albemarle, the school clo sures meant she would be prevented from interact ing with her students at a critical time when they really start to understand key concepts, especially reading comprehension. “The time of year that the pandemic happened is usually when a lightbulb really goes off with all our kids and they’re start ing to really grasp all the concepts,” said Haltom, 54, who has taught in the school system for 30 years, including 17 at East. “And it was like, ‘Oh no, I’m not going to be there to really make sure those concepts are grasped the way they naturally come during a regular school year.’” Almond said the stu dents were still stunned when they briefly returned to school to get their be longings and Chrome- books — not knowing when they would come back. “I think everyone was in shock that first week,” she said. “We didn’t know what to expect and this was something we never PHOTO COURTESY OF ANGELA ALMOND Albemarle Middle School teacher Angela Almond chats with her seventh grade students on Google Meet. had to do. This is so new, I feel like a first-year teach er all over again. Adjusting to a new normal Though the school buildings may be closed, teaching and learning is still happening around the county — just virtual ly from the safe confines of individual homes. Each morning, Almond, who teaches English and social studies, sends an email to her 43 students, detailing assignments and class reminders along with any individual student achievements she wants to highlight. See Teachers, 29c Continued from 28C She also sends weekly, personalized emails to each student to check in on them and make sure they are okay. She teaches class from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Thursday through the videoconferencing tool Google Meet. After class, she often gives students some time to virtually talk and interact with each other. Almond said it took some time initially to con vince students that even though they were at home, they were still in school and would still have to complete assignments and virtually show up for class. Almond has done her best to adjust to this new world, but it hasn't been easy. “It’s a very strange feeling” working remotely, she said. “It’s like I’m con stantly questioning myself because I’ve never done this before. When I was in the classroom, I knew 100 percent what I was doing and the next steps to take.” Many of Haltom’s stu dents have struggled to understand why they are at home instead of school each day. “Home is their place where they eat and sleep and have family time and play; it’s not school and that’s what it had to turn into,” she said. Each of the first-grade students are completing work packets, though Hal tom, along with her first- grade colleagues, have created weekly YouTube videos for the students to watch. Haltom’s videos fo cus on the phonics-based program Letterland and she incorporates her two dogs, Duke and Bean, which the students enjoy. Each video lasts around 10 to 20 minutes. “I never thought I would ever do something like that,” she joked about becoming a YouTuber. Luckily she has a teenage daughter who has helped her film and upload the videos. She also calls the par ents each week to get up dates about the students and make sure all is well. Haltom has gotten to know the parents on a level she hasn’t before and likely would not have if not for the pandemic. “They let me into their lives as far as what’s going on,’’ she said. She has told her class that students all across the country are also learning from home. “We just have to be safe,” she tells them, “and to be safe we need to stay home.” Since standardized end- of-grade tests have been canceled, Almond has had the flexibility to incorpo rate more student-driven instruction. She gauged her students about their interests and what they wanted to learn and has tailored her curriculum to best suit their ideas. Her students are current ly learning about Greek mythology in ELA class and World War I in social studies. “Really letting the students drive your in struction, that’s been a huge game changer for us during this,” Almond said, “and I think that’s some thing I want to do when we start back." Lack of internet a problem for some students Almond said a common problem teachers are fac ing is that some students don’t have reliable internet — if they have it at all — to complete the assignments RHOTOCOURTESY OF SUSAN ma.toM East Albemarle first-grade teacher Susan Haltom has made educational Youtube videos for her students with help from her two dogs, including Bean. and attend virtual class. Teaching in Albemar le, “you would think ev erybody has access, but they don’t so that’s been a challenge," Almond said, noting it’s likely even more of a challenge for teachers in more rural areas of the county. Superintendent Dr. Jeff James said according to school data, around 10 to 12 percent of students in the county have connec tivity issues, which makes completing online assign ments difficult. He said the school sys tem’s information technol ogy department is working with several providers, including Windstream, Spectrum, Conterra and Verizon, to try and address the issue. Though Almond has a 95 percent participation rate in terms of kids at tending class and complet ing assignments, which she says is “really high," and almost all of her stu dents have access to key resources, she has had to work with one student who has no access to reliable in ternet. Almond worked exten- sively trying to help the student find reliable in ternet access, including utilizing WiFi hotspots in her area. Fortunately the student’s sister ha.s inter net, so she spends a few hours per day completing assignments at the sister’s house. “We’re lucky because we were able to find a solu tion for her. but that’s not always possible,” Almond said, adding that lack of internet access is an issue the community needs to examine and work to ad dress. Haltom said she also ha.s students who lack in ternet. She and the other first-grade teachers have emphasized to parents that though the videos are instructive, the work pack ets are most important/ Time to slow down See Teachers, 3oc J Thankyou for your service!

THURSDAY, MAY 28, 2020 Continued from 29C Working from home has allowed Almond time to slow down and “appre ciate things a little more.” She has been able to spend more time with her son, who’s in middle school. Her husband, who’s a bar ber, has also been at home. She said as a mom, it’s been easy for her to give “grace” to her students for a missed assignment or if someone forgets to attend class “because I see what my family is going through and I know that we’re not the only ones.” While the pandemic will deprive many teach ers of likely being able to physically hug and say goodbye to their students when the academic year ends, it will be especially hard for Haltom, who is retiring at the end of the school year. “I won’t get those last final goodbyes with those kids,” Haltom said, noting it’s not just her current class but the other stu dents she’s taught in the past. Though teachers have struggled at times to ad just to the new reality of remote learning, James is proud of them, “Our teachers have been phenomenal,” he said. “I don’t think any one in our community can doubt that our teachers are doing this because they love kids and it’s a calling.”PHOTO COURTESY OF ANGELA ALMOND Albemarle Middle School teacher Angela Almond interacts with her class on Google Meet.
