He was owner of FosterShell Service of the YadkinvilleRoad, a member of the FarmingtonUnited Methodist Church, thei Veterans of Foreign Wars. He was aI veteran of World War II section: action in the South Pacific.His first wife. Sue DeadmonFoster died July 3, 1970. Survivorsinclude his second wife. BeulahBoger Foster; a son. Dr. Bob .M.Foster of MocksviUe; a sister. .MaePhelps of Rt. 4. Mocksville; abrother, John Frank Foster ofHomestead. Fla.; and three grandchildren.JOB FOSTERHe was a man in love with his work. He feit an enthusiasm for it,which in the words of William Dean Howeils—"enthusiasm-for whichnothing but the work we can do well inspires in us."For 35 years Robert Lee Foster, known to his many friends as Bob.operated a Shell oil dealership combined with a grocery store next tohis home on the Yadkinville Highway. During these years he not onlygave top personal care and service "to ail vehicles entrusted to him—but. as one person observed upon hearing of his death Tuesday morning:"Bob Foster was a man that would go out of his way to be a friend—togivetheshirtoff his back. He put more groceries on tables of peoplein need than you could write a book about—and he did it without asecond thought about whether or not he would ever receive any pay—and probably in meet cases didn't."A veteran of World War II (1943-1946) he participated in theliberatim of New Guinea, the Phillipines, and other areas of the SouthPacific. He was the recipient of three Bronze Stars, the VictoryMedal, and the Good Conduct Medal.He returned home in 1946 to his wife, the former Sue ElizabethDeadmon, and a teenage son in his final years of high school.He buUt his place of business beside his home and put in long, hardhours SIX days each week. Working after school and on Saturdays, hisson made it a joint effort.Bob and Sue Elizabeth Deadmon. who were married on ChristmasEve in 1931. had only one child. This son wanted to become a doctor.The devoted parents were determined he would have the chance. Hedid—receiving his medical degree from the Bowman Gray School ofMedicine with the highest grade average ever recorded at that schoolat that lime.There was a closeness in this family that many such parentalrelationships do not experience. Following the death of the mother onJuly 3.1970. the close affinity continued between father and son.On October 16, 1971 Bob Foster, with his son's blessing marriedBeuJah Boger who became not only a wife, but a constant companitmin his business operations.In 1960 Bob Foster built a greenhouse and started raising plants andflowers as a hobby. By 1965 this had become a business sideline andBob Foster became known as the man with a "green thumb." Hisyard was always a showplace, well manicured with an abundance ofpretty flowers.Count Bismarck once observeo:"A really good man is known by three signs—generosity in design,humanity in execudm, moderation In success."And Wordsworth once said:"The best portions cf a good man's life is his little nameless, andoften unremembered acts of kindness and love."This was Bob Foster.DAVIE CO.

Following his retirement.Shepherd was not one to sit backand do nothing. Having been activeall his life, the "do-nothing" approach had no appeal to himwhatsoever. He feit it necessary toconnect with some activity ororganization in which he would beneeded, accepted and he happy.He became interested in theDavie County Hospital and thepossibility of finding fulfillmentthere. So he enrolled in coursessponsored by Davidson CommunityCollege and in due time had earneddiplomas or certificates in threedistinct areas of need; Home Carefor the Aged, .Nursing Assistance,and Stroke Patient Care. He thenfound a place of fullment andhappiness in the Davie Hospitalwhere he worked third shift.

Soil is the product of the combined
efforts of plants and animals,
climate, topography, time and
parent material. These factors
determine the unique charac
teristics of the natural soil bodies.
Organic matter accumulation,
nutrient cycling and structural
stability are made possible by the
presence of plants and animals. For
example, nitrogen is added to the
soil system by micro-organisms
aione or in association with plants.
Vegetative cover helps reduce
erosion thereby slowing down the
rate of surface removal.
Climate is perhaps the most in
fluential factor. Temperature and
precipitation have profound in-
huences on the chemical and
physical processes. Climatic in-
huences are often expressed
through or in combination with
other factors. In humid areas
plentiful rain is favorable for the
growth of trees while grasslands are
the dominant vegetation in scmiarid
areas.
The influence of topography is the
formation of soils in seen most often
by interacting with other factors.
The rolling topography in some
areas encourages natural erosion
and may eliminate the possibility of
a deep soil. In areas, where it is flat
and water is not readily removed,
climatic influences may become
relatively ineffective in regulating
soil development.
The lime that materials are
subject to weathering plays a
sienificanl role in soil formation.
