Storehouse shows pride in volunteer win, volunteer coordinator.Debbie Crutchfield, exec-utive director, also said that Charlie is a hard worker, de-pendable, and good-hearted. Charlie began volunteering in 2019 and has worked daily in a variety of roles, including filling orders in the pantry, or-ganizing the warehouse, un-loading the dock, and more. Charlie said his parents en-couraged him to volunteer during his high school years so that he would gain experience working with people. His older brother, Joey, has been a volun-teer for almost seven years. “Charlie works quietly,” said Marie Collins, former execu-tive director. “He is dedicated, and I don’t know what we will do without him.” Lesa Branch, a pantry volun-teer, organized the celebration to recognize Charlie’s gradua-tion and show appreciation for his service to Storehouse.

This safe voter”affirmation must be confirmed by a trusted court of the current ruling party before the Red Flag recipient may have their voting privilege reinstated.See how this works? Gary PatridgeAdvance To the editor: Things don't seem to be getting any better. Something has got to be done about Joe Biden and the Democrats. hey've gotten us in so much trouble that we'll never survive 'til things are right again. Just about everybody, whether they'll admit it or not, is ticked off and angry at how things are going. I'm surprised that war hasn't broken out in this country.The Democratic party doesn't stand for what it did years ago. They don't want to work with Republicans on any-thing. They want things their way ... or not at all. Our Southern border is open to anybody who wants to come across it. We don't know, and apparently don't care, whether they are murderers, rapists, child molesters, or law-abiding people. Not all of them are bad. However, it's been proven in the recent past that some of them almost im-mediately commit a crime within days after arriving. Law enforcement seems to look the other way. The people can't take much more. Things in America have got to change.Let's begin with getting rid of everybody employed by the current administration, including employees assigned to the White House. We need to start over with new blood and fresh ideas. Maybe a march on Washington by all citi-zens who are tired of our present situation would show the world that we're not gonna take this crap anymore. Just clean house, once and for all. Biden doesn't seem to know what he's doing. We are not the United States of America anymore. We are not united at all about anything. Biden and his cronies have done more harm to this country than any previous president, including Trump. Just look at the gas situation as well as the baby formula shortage. Biden wants everybody to rush out and buy an electric car. I will ... if he'll buy an electric Air Force One and an electric Marine One helicop-ter. Maybe then we could meet up at the charging station, out back at the White House, and kick our ideas around. And wonder what the new name of the White House will be? You know he'll change it. Biden is also taking a different view of abortion. Does that mean that he and the Democratic party believe it's OK to commit murder of the unborn? Whoever thought that this country would ever be in such a mess? The blame can and should be laid at Biden's feet. It would appears that Biden is trying to be buddies with China and Russia. They're laughing at him because he's so out of it.Biden, you've done nothing for this country. You're all for allowing illegals to cross our borders so that they become potential Democrat voters. You're trying to take away our rights and priviledges. You're doing all you can to make the United States a third world country. It's time we the people stood up to you and your cronies, such as Pelosi, Harris, Schumer, and Obama (yes, Obama, as he's still much on the scene), and many others, and demand that you do what's right for the United States.Everything which has happened in and to this country since Jan. 20, 2021 is on you. The fate of the American people is in your hands. Step up and do what's right. It's not Russia's fault, and certainly not Trump's fault. This, Joe Biden, is your fault, It's all because of things you, and you alone, have done. Admit it. And then go to work and fix it. Brenda BurtonAdvance Country’s problems Biden’s fault To the editor:Father’s Day has me remembering all that my wonder-ful Dad was in his life and how his teachings and actions formed my development. My Dad was not religious, but he was a moral person with integrity, generosity of spirit, and charity towards anyone less fortunate. My Dad taught me to never start a fight, but how to defend myself if attacked. Right now, our country is under attack from a variety of fronts, and I am asking you to help us come together to defend ourselves.I think most of us in Davie were raised with some de-gree of spiritual guidance and values, but if you were not, forgive my sharing Biblical teachings. As Rev. Martin of Vian United Methodist Church wrote: “My dad gave me a piece of advice when I was a know-it-all teenager. ‘Never say in anger what you don’t mean, because you can say you’re sorry, but you can’t take it back’.” Satan can use our tongue to cause division, putting others down, brag-ging, false teaching, exaggeration, complaining, or just ly-ing. Proverbs 18:21: ‘The tongue has the power of life and death.’ The stakes are high. Gossip and false teaching are no different. Great minds discuss ideas, average minds dis-cuss events, and small minds discuss people.” We now live a country where the truth is that we have more in common than that which divides us. We all need a place to live, food to eat, something that matters in our life, and support. Sadly, we have a number of people who do not believe verifiable facts because there are powerful people lying to Americans consistently through a variety of TV, radio, internet, and public gatherings. These lies are designed to divide and conquer us, an ancient and proven warfare strategy. I pray you will join me in preventing this division from continuing until America is at an armed war with ourselves.In James 1:19: “You must understand this, my beloved: let everyone be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to an-ger.’” When we are angry, we are not as rational and effec-tive as we can be. When we begin to demonize people, we can no longer see them as the brothers and sisters they are in our family of human kind. When we allow manipulators to continually demonize others in our community, region, state, and nation, we find it almost impossible to practice the commandment to love one another. (Matthew 22:34-40). That is on us. We can come together to stop listening to the noise that demonizes our fellow human beings, and strive to love our neighbors. “Neighbor is not a geographic term. It is a moral concept.”-Rabbi Joachim PrinzI have done my best to adopt a practice that slows me down when I hear something that makes me angry. While there is a lot we can be angry about, and maybe even fear, we are not our best selves when we are angry and afraid. I will always listen with interest when someone shares ideas and information, but now know that if someone is trashing some one else, or an entire group of people, it is unwise to trust what they are saying. Each of us is unique and we also have a lot in common. I do my best to focus upon what we have in common, and strive to work together to promote our common interests.As a US Navy veteran, I swore to uphold, protect, and defend the US Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Our way of governing, as detailed in the US Constitution is under serious attack. Too many people have forgotten or no longer believe that our government is “of the people, by the people, and for the people.” If you are unwilling to be an active, accurately informed citizen, you are giving up on your American dream, and settling for conspiracy theories and adrenaline instead of holding your power to be part of what makes America great.Nixon was the first President I voted for, and I remem-ber watching the daily Watergate hearings because at that time, our Congress committed to finding the truth about President Nixon who did break laws and abuse his power. We the people are what either makes this nation great or not. Believing otherwise gives away the US Constitution-ally granted power and rights we do still have in America. If you believe American government is a team sport with sides, we are lost. If we join together with sincere willing-ness to discuss the issues, avoid blaming and demonizing others, we can restore America to what was hoped to be a great experiment in democracy with freedom for all. If you are willing to engage in an honest and respectful discussion of important issues, we can make America better. Be respectful to make America better To the editor:We moved to Mocksville about 50 years ago. My hus-band and I chose Mocksville because it resembled our small town up North. We like grocery shopping at Hef-ner’s, schools and church nearby, lovely library, and Win-ston-Salem was just up a new section of I-40. Mocksville looked like a nice place to raise a family.Remember, I said Mocksville resembled our small town back home. So, when I shopped at Hefner’s during huting season and saw pickup trucks with long guns racked to the truck’s back window, I thought nothing of it. Back home, when I was growing up, most families had guns in their homes and those guns were used to sppplement food for the family table - venison, rabbit, squirrel and turkey. I sup-posed back in the years before and after World War II, guns were used for hunting in the South, as well.One day during hunting season, I remember driving into the Davie County High School student parking lot on US 601 South and seeing pickup trucks with guns racked to the back window. I suppose it was mostly boys who liked to hunt who were driving those pickup trucks to school. But you have to imagine that where the boy and the truck went, the racked gun went, too. And you could imagine that every once in a while another person could ride along in the truck, with the boy and the gun. A reader might have been one of those boys.Now here is the big question. How many mass shootings occurred in Davie County or anywhere during that era? I can’t remember one mass shooting. Just think, boys and adults with pickup trucks and guns; up North, down South, East or West, it didn’t matter. Why no mass shootings back then? I bet you can come up with a reason or two. Now try to explain your reason to someone under the age of 45. I think you’ll hear this charming phrase - that was then, this is now.Lord, help us now.Valerie Slogick, Mocksville Lord, help us now By Dean RidingsAmerica’s Newspapers CEO Congress has an opportunity to pass legislation that benefits all local citizens, businesses and even protects our democracy. The Local Journalism Sustainability Act, LJSA for short, should be included as part of any upcoming rec-onciliation bill that Congress is considering. The LJSA is a well-thought-out bill that would provide needed support to local news organizations, including local newspapers, to ensure their viability as they continue to make progress toward a digital future.Many members of Congress have seen what happens when a newspaper closes in their district, and they see the impact it has on the community. That is why many of our leaders, including Senators Cantwell, Schumer, Manchin, Wyden and others have stepped up in sup-port of the LJSA. And while others in Congress may not have signed on as co-sponsors of the bill yet, many rec-ognize the importance and the need to maintain strong local news organizations in their communities.To understand what the LJSA is, it is important to un-derstand what it is not. This is a temporary measure to help newspapers at this critical time, and it sunsets after five years. The LJSA won’t help national news organi-zations, but it will support local news organizations and help them invest in their newsrooms in order to continue to cover the issues that impact local cities and towns. The result is a bill that provides a bridge for local news-papers as they continue to evolve their business models.So why is it so critical for Congress to pass the LJSA now? Quite simply, the future of local newspapers in many areas of the country hangs in the balance. In the past 15 years, more than a quarter of all newspapers have disap-peared, and many more have been forced to make staff reductions that have diminished the coverage of topics that impact local citizens. The way people get their in-formation and advertise their local businesses is quickly moving to digital, and local newspapers continue to be impacted by the Big Tech companies that use their origi-nal content without fair compensation. To make matters worse, newspapers, like many other industries, were fi-nancially impacted by the pandemic, even though the coverage provided by local newspapers was more vital than ever.The current economic challenges have only hastened the need for Congress to act on the LJSA quickly. As inflation is impacting everyone, it has made the envi-ronment for local newspapers even more challenging. The cost of retaining employees has gone up. The cost of newsprint has increased 30% over last year, and the cost of gas used to deliver the newspaper is up more than 50% in the past two years. Many newspaper car-riers drive hundreds and even thousands of miles each week. These increases have driven many local newspa-pers closer to making further reductions or even ceasing operations.Who wins with the passage of the Local Journalism Sustainability Act? Clearly, local newspapers win by obtaining the sup-port needed to continue their investments in reporting on local news. But the real winners are the communi-ties that keep their local newspaper. From watching the actions of local government, reporting on the state of local schools, tracking local health trends or providing the latest restaurant reviews and sales information, local newspapers keep a community connected and informed.We encourage everyone to reach out to their repre-sentatives in Congress and ask them to support local journalism. Whether it is inclusion of the LJSA in the budget reconciliation bill, or a stand-alone bill, the time for action is now. It’s a rare opportunity for government to act on something that benefits us all.America’s Newspapers is the trade association for thousands of newspapers across the United States. www.newspapers.org DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 23, 2022 - 3 Presidential sites By Ellen BishopFor the Enterprise Joe and I had a lot in common. We both grew up on a farm in Davie County, graduated one year apart from Davie High and worked at the Mocksville Post Office as letter carriers. But, this is not about me. This is about Joseph Edwin Phillips, whose life was cut short at the age of 54.Joe spent his childhood and early adulthood on a dairy farm where he was taught a strong work ethic along with how to have fun in life. As a child, he loved riding mo-torbikes and bicycles, shooting guns, listening to music and playing guitar. His easygoing, fun-loving personality spilled over into the work place. I remember he would come to work after already putting in hours milking cows and go about his daily routine without complaint although he did write a song about the “post office blues.” As Eric, Joe’s son, has stated, his father was one of a kind who marched to the beat of his own drum but at the same time brought his energy and love to spread around among family and friends. Joe would oftentimes play at small venues in and around Mocksville; he was an active volunteer at the arts council and had a special passion for music and the arts. As a way to give back in memory of his father’s life, Eric has established a scholarship through the Davie Community Foundation that will benefit a graduate with music and arts in their future. Ten years of scholarships have been given so far. To help continue Joe’s legacy, please join us this up-coming weekend, June 25 and 26, for a fundraiser for the Joe Phillips Memorial Scholarship Fund.

By Betty Etchison WestFor the Enterprise After Theodore Roos-evelt finished the term of President McKinley, who was assassinated, he ran for another term. While he was campaigning, he said, “If I am elected I will only serve one more term.” Those were words which he hated he had ever spoken because after he won that elec-tion and was completing the term for which he was elected, he really wanted to continue being president. He knew that he could not run again because he had made a promise. The man he hoped would be his successor was William Howard Taft. He wanted Taft because he be-lieved that he was the man who would continue the policies which he had be-gun. It turned out that Taft chose to be his own man and did not follow all of Roosevelt’s policies which greatly disappointed the former president.William Howard Taft was born in Cincinnati, Ohio on Sept. 15, 1857, and lived in that city for many years.The house where Taft was born is open to the public and is an interest-ing structure at 2038 Au-burn Ave., 513-684-3262. If planning to visit, call to find out hours the house is open to the public.The following about the Taft birthplace is found in the book, “Cabins, Cottag-es and Mansions” by Nancy and Christopher Benbow: “The William Howard Taft birthplace house has an Italianate appearance. It has a cornice, a small piaz-za, and a ‘widow’s watch’ used by the Tafts, who were amateur astronomers. It has four restored rooms reflecting Taft family life during the years 1857 to 1877. The restoration fea-tures period fixtures and venetian blinds and shades. One of the restored rooms is a formal parlor, which was once a double parlor. The doors of this room are wood grained. On its walls hang portraits of four adult members of the Taft family painted by William Wal-cott, who stayed there in 1858. One mantel in this room, which has two fire-places is original, the other was duplicated later. The room has puddle draperies and Rococo revival style furniture, and a three vol-ume folio, Indian Tribes of North America, on display there. The restored library features a desk made in the 1840s or 1850s which was used by Alphonso Taft (William Howard’s father). The mantel in the library is original.” Another restored room in the house is the nursery. The baby bed there may or may not have been used by William Howard Taft when he was a baby, but it is of the period of his babyhood. (I did not know what pud-dle drapes were until I vis-ited the Taft home.) There is another part of the house which serves as a museum which has Taft artifacts and reveals histo-ry of the family, a remark-able family in the history of America. There is a building next door to the Italianate style house which houses more Taft history. (The Italianate style was evidently popular in the middle to late 1800s. It is evident at the home of Benjamin Harrison and at the house given to the Gen-eral Grant for his contribu-tion in making the Union’s effort in the Civil War a success.)William Howard Taft, after completing his edu-cation at Yale Law School, became a successful law-yer. Taft was appointed a judge in the Sixth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals by President Benjamin Harri-son. Taft would probably have been happy in that po-sition for the rest of his life, but he met and married a young lady, Helen Herron, who had greater ambitions for her husband. Helen had visited the White House with her parents when she was a teenager, and she de-cided then that she wanted to live there some day. She seemed to evaluate her suitors as to their chances of ever becoming President of the United States. She settled on William How-ard Taft as the suitor most likely to become president. She made a good choice.Mr. Taft was offered a job as Governor of the Philippines by President McKinley. He accepted that job and was successful. His wife was also happy living in the islands. She enjoyed living at Mala-canang Palace, where the family entertained exten-sively, inviting high offi-cials and regular Filipinos. The people of the island were pleased to be included in the activities at the pal-ace. After President McKin-ley was assassinated, and Roosevelt became Presi-dent, he offered Mr. Taft a Supreme Court Judgeship. That is the job which Wil-liam Howard Taft always wanted; it was not his goal to be President. Mr. Taft’s wife would not let her hus-band accept the judgeship because she believed that if he became a Supreme Court Judge, he would never become President. He did take a job in Mr. Roosevelt’s cabinet; that received Mrs. Taft’s ap-proval.Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Taft became good friends and close associates. Mr. Roosevelt trusted his friend’s judgement. That is the reason that Mr. Roos-evelt chose Mr. Taft as the person he hoped would fol-low him as president. Mr. Taft easily won the election with Theodore Roosevelt’s backing. He and his fam-ily moved into the White House. Mrs. Helen Taft was one happy First Lady. She had achieved her goal. She seemed to be everywhere, entertaining and even tak-ing an interest in political and official affairs. She was so active and busy that she got the nickname, “Ner-vous Nellie.” When she had only been First Lady about two months, Mrs. Taft had a stroke. It was serious and she never completely recovered, but she did get well enough to carry on her first Lady duties to some extent. The thing that Mrs. Taft is most remembered for is the Japanese cherry trees which bloom each spring around the Tidal Ba-sin in Washington. She got the Japanese to give those trees to the city of Wash-ington.Mr. Taft was not elected to a second term because Mr. Roosevelt, who did not get the Republican nom-ination for President, de-cided to run as a third party candidate. The Republican vote was split between Mr. Taft and Mr. Roosevelt so the Democratic candidate, Woodrow Wilson, won. After leaving the pres-idency, Mr. Taft taught at Yale, and, in 1921, was ap-pointed as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court by Pres-ident Warren G. Harding. William Howard Taft, who was born in an Itali-anate style house in Cin-cinnati, Ohio, was able to satisfy the goal of his wife, Helen, who wanted her husband to be President and his own goal to be a Supreme Court Justice—quite a journey. The 27th President died in 1930 and is buried at Arlington Na-tional Cemetery. His wife, who died 13 years later is buried beside him.

The weather was perfect with a light breeze blowing at Waikiki Beach. The music was great, the food was great, the energy was high, and the air was electric. It was good to be together again as a com-munity.The decorations trans-formed WinMock into Hawaii location highlights. The tropical Bird of Para-dise with Monstera leaves were lovely at Waikiki Beach. There were lots of palm plants, yuccas, palm trees, and of course, surf boards. The Pearl Harbor Of-ficers’ Club featured red, white, and blue with Amer-ican flags along with flags from each branch of the military. Each “restaurant” had a unique look, but all were reminiscent of Hawaii with pineapples, tiki lights, and large bright flowers.The food by Uptown Hospitality and desserts by Maddie Cakes received rave reviews and there was plenty.“My nightmare before the event is that I run out of food,” said Pam Welker of Uptown. “I do everything I can to be sure there is plenty for the large crowd.” The Hawaiian style menu provided tastes of the Big Island with a North Caro-lina twist and was present-ed beautifully. The desserts by Maddie Cakes were small bites of sunshine and simply delicious.

The shoppers in the crowd enjoyed battling for silent auction items with the mobile bidding. The rum tastings sold out and those guests with tickets learned about varieties of Rum from Rosalie. For the gamblers, all 100 raffle tickets sold out, too. The generosity showed during the kive auction as bidders spared no expense in vying for bourbons, trips, and the last Duke basket-ball autographed by Coach K. The six items brought bids for more than $14,000 with the highest bids placed for the Weller Bourbon.From an organizational standpoint, it was a perfect night.

This was about the same time as many other musicals such as Okla-homa and Carousel. Back then, we were accustomed to people suddenly bursting into song in the middle of various situations in films. I don’t remember thinking that this was awkward or unexpected. For many years, I had a phono-graph record of the songs from the movie that I played of-ten and enjoyed singing along with.I borrowed the DVD South Pacific from the library and watched it last night. This movie takes place in World War II and contains serious war actions, military guys enjoying life, and of course, love stories. I had forgotten that it is three hours long. There was little segue between speaking lines and a sudden explosion into song which caught me off guard almost every time. I wonder what the difference is. Perhaps we don’t sing as much now as we did back then. I am fully aware of the powerful value and therapy of songs and the sentimental feelings that result. Perhaps we need to burst into song more often. I dare you to try it. YouTube has a video of a young woman in England who takes her guitar on a train ride, hands out papers with the words of a song, and she leads everybody in singing this optimistic song “We All Need Somebody to Lean On.” Amazingly, everybody joins in, and frowns turn into big smiles.In researching this movie, I found an article that de-scribed a high school wanting to do this play. After review, it was rejected because of sensitive dialogue about minori-ty issues. There is a song in the movie, “You’ve Got to Be Taught.” The basic idea of the song is that prejudice is taught. It was a song before its time when most schools and organizations were still segregated. There’s a good lesson in that song from over 60 years ago that could be helpful today.Old SchoolBy Gaye HootsMy condo was built in 1975, and I was told Pamlico County did not have a building code then. The contrac-tor started my building project a few days ago, and I had watched them long enough to leave it in their hands for a few days while I was visiting Advance. I wanted the dis-colored acrylic shower replaced with a white subway tile shower.They tore out the old tub/shower and the floor of the bathroom, which had rotted. This was caused by a slow leak from the bottom of the commode. The contractor smelled a slight burning odor and thought he heard a siz-zle. When he checked, the drainpipe was dripping onto the only power line under the condo, which had destroyed the insulation on a few inches of the wire. This was potentially dangerous, so he called an electrician to replace and move the wire.When they tore out the floor, they discovered two floor joists had been cut, presumably by the company that had cut out water pipes when installing a heating system. These were replaced along with the subfloor, and concrete boards were added. You never know what is there if you can’t see it. I was told my crawl space needed more ventilation, which he will address later by adding additional vents and placing a large vent in the wooden door to my crawl space.The guys at the local hardware store recommended the contractor who worked with his son and another worker. They work hard to ensure I am happy with their work and tell me, “If it is not right, we will make it right.”The contractor is teaching his son as they work together. They appear to be 6’5” tall, and both were working in a bathroom that is 5’x7,’ which must be stressful. He has the son measure and cut the tile and watches him place the tiles as he butters the next tile. I am obsessive about symmetry, so he aligned the tiles perfectly, including the niche on the back wall. They worked patiently until the ceiling and the 60”x32” shower were completed.I was impressed that the father took the time to teach his son a trade and that the young man was receptive to this. When he had completed the shower, I think he was as proud of it as I was. The son installed all the fixtures, painted the room, and scraped off the popcorn ceiling and painted that. The walls were original, and they had sanded and repaired the rough spots, but after it was painted the father decided it was not perfect, he smoothed the repaired areas again his son repainted.They painted other areas, including both front doors. When the second coat of paint dried, I looked them over and questioned whether they needed a third coat. I decid-ed that I was being too picky, and I did not mention it. The contractor looked them over carefully and asked that a third coat of paint be applied.We are down to the finishing line, and the contractor is paying for a cleaner to come tomorrow and clean for me. I plan to have them return and redo my laundry room and am looking forward to it. . Congratulations, Class of 2022By Julie Terry CartnerPalms sweating, heart pounding, Louisa stood in line awaiting her name being announced over the loudspeaker. Finally. Yolanda Louisa Alvarez. I did it, she thought. I did it! Stepping carefully onto the stage, her heels tip-tapping in a rhythm matching her heartbeat, she remembered the instructions. “Take the diploma in your left hand; shake hands with your right.” And then she was across the stage, her brain barely registering the handshakes, the unexpected hugs, the click of the cameras, her family, ugh, her family cheering from the bleachers even though announcements had requested all applause wait until after all had gradu-ated.But how could they not cheer, she thought. She, the youngest of four, had accomplished what the others had not. She, the lone daughter, with three older, protective brothers, had navigated her way through the required courses, sometimes as challenging as navigating her way through the hallways of school, to emerge victorious at the end. She, the first high school graduate in her family, had the chance to succeed, to have a life beyond assembly lines and hard laborious jobs. Returning to her seat, she slipped the cover open, eagerly anticipating the moment she saw her name in print on the certificate of graduation. Instead, shock, fear, and nausea. The folder was empty. What had she failed? What had she forgotten to do? Was it physics? Anatomy? Had she forgot-ten to turn in her term paper? Logic warred with emotion. She’d aced her physics and anatomy exams. She’d gotten a respectable B on her term paper. She’d passed all her classes. Fees, then? Fines? Had she turned in all her books? Again, logic prevailed. Someone would have told her if she’d failed to take care of any of those things.Yet, as all her hopes and dreams faded away; no diploma meant no college, and no college meant no medical school, a flame of determination flickered brightly. I will do it, she thought, one way or another. But I am sure I did every-thing. It’s just a misunderstanding.Then, as the ceremony drew to a close, she picked up on the words coming across the speakers… “Don’t forget, graduates, go to the gym to pick up your diplomas.”A wave of relief washed over her, as she remembered the words from the director at practice. We were told about this…they didn’t want to risk giving the wrong diploma to the wrong person; the folders would be empty, and diplo-mas would be handed out in the gym by faculty members. Louisa smiled for the first time in what seemed like ages as the tension slid off her neck like a turtle shedding its shell.Now that the last senior had crossed the stage, the dec-laration of graduation reverberated across the stadium, tas-sels were moved from right to left, then caps pitched into the air by exuberant graduates, Louisa stood, statue-like, cap firmly in her hands, the reality of the moment washing over her live an avalanche of sunflowers. Joy, exultation, and wonderment vying for supremacy, then co-mingling in a blanket of pride. I made it, she thought again, and, like the speaker said, the future is mine. I will show the world. I have arrived. I will make my statement, and people will hear me. With that, Louisa made her way proudly to her cheering family, now relishing their excitement.Graduation, a door, open and waiting, starts a journey that can lead in many directions. Congratulations to the Class of 2022, and best wishes.

She was born 1932 as recorded in the Bible, delivered by Dr. Hardin in the Great Depres-sion. Her pioneer parents of nine children were Charles Franklin Potts and Bessie Mae Brown Potts. She began her education in 1938 at Courtney School and graduated from Farm-ington in 1950 with the Senior Citizenship Award. She scored the highest on the state spelling word test in 11th-grade. She made A-plus on a soil conserva-tion paper and was one of 15 students selected for a field trip in high school. Esther Horne Hawkins was her most influential teacher for grades 8-12. She wrote her a note which Annie Belle has carried in her heart: “I approve your day before the fire and had the meat seasoned and in a meat box which burned all day the next day. Annie Belle recalls hav-ing a rabbit holler to make money. She caught her first rabbit at age 11 and walked miles to sell it to her teacher, Sally B. Hunt-er, for 15 cents. She had already skinned the rabbit. Annie Belle said that was big money. One could buy a cone of ice cream for a nickle. Here family were share-croppers raising tobacco, cotton and sugar cane for cash crops. She learned ear-ly on to work and was paid 10 cents a pile to strip the cane for molasses. Annie Belle worked for B&F Manufacturing in the cutting room and marking patterns at age 18. She also worked textiles at Wonder-knit and Hunter Brothers in Statesville. Annie Belle Potts mar-ried Fred DeHart in 1957 in their Mocksville home. They were married for 27 years until his death at age 52. Fred was in an accident working for the state in which both legs were bro-ken in several places. He retired at age 48 and then got a blockage and cancer.Annie Belle met Grady Wishon, her second hus-band in 1987. He told her on the second date he be-lieved God had brought them together. They had 25 years of happiness before his illness took his life. When she was able, An-nie Belle loved vacation-ing with her family in the Smoky Mountains, eating out, going to the beach, and going to Cana, Va. for plants and vegetables.Many nieces and neph-ews have spent the nights with their aunt and enjoyed her life stories and nurtur-ing. She is the last living person of the “Charles and Bessie Potts family”. All other siblings have passed. She had five sisters: Stel-la (Travis York) Doris, deceased Harold, Caro-lyn, and Frances; Della (Thomas Johnson) Thom-as, Jr, Gayle, Larry, Gerald, and Kathy; Mary (Clyde Ireland) Wayne, Roger, Dale, deceased Bobby and Kenneth; Rosa Lee (Paul Hendricks); Janet (David Boger) Anita, Dean, Vio-let, deceased Ernie. Annie Belle had three brothers: Junie (Iris Rose) Gene, Nancy, Deborah, J.D., de-ceased Judy; Roby (Josie) Betty Jo, Johnny, Becky, Dianne, Peggy, Jerry; and David, daughter Kristy. Annie Belle, as she is affectionately called, is known by her nieces and nephews for her potato sal- ad, deviled eggs, vegetable soup, and the best biscuits. She made the biscuits for the first opening of Burger King in Mocksville. She also opened up the old Hardees which was orig-inally near Miller’s at 5 every morning to make at least 500 biscuits. Another person would come in at 5:30 and start cooking meat and stuffing biscuits to meet the long lines outside waiting for biscuits at 6.Annie Belle loves to re-treat to her happy place”on the outdoor patio surround-ed by hostas, geraniums, day lilies of every variety, gardenias, lovely impa-tiens, and a cool breeze on the hottest days. You won’t look far to see plants being rooted like a mini-green-house. If you look closely, you may spot a few tomato plants, squash, strawber-ries, and cucumbers, too. Her passion to read, music, and the study of the mind fill her days. “Everyone in the world needs to be loved and need-ed or they will not have a purpose in life,” she said. Her doctors tell her she is sharp with a grand memo-ry because her mind stays At left, Annie Belle Potts DeHart Wishon at a family Memorial Day celebration where she said the blessing before the meal.

Keep it up and you will surely suc-ceed!” Later, Annie Belle spent a year at Forsyth Tech tak-ing public speaking, read-ing, and psychology plus three months at Forsyth Hospital training to be a nurse. Growing up, her family had 18 cows to milk dai-ly and she began at age 7 milking two cows per day before and after school. She moved, as was com-mon in those days, to Cool Springs where their rental home burned and they lost everything when she was in fifth grade. She recalls her father had killed hogs that busy. She loves reading in her collection of Guide-posts. “I am blessed; I don’t even wear glasses ex-cept to read.”Annie Belle Wishon is a lifetime member of Bear Creek Baptist Church. She began church at age 12 and was saved at revival when she was 16 with Rev. Bill Hill preaching. She attend-ed and served her church regularly until her health has prevented her from attending in the last three years. She was secretary of the church at age 23. She taught the Primary Sunday School class for children 6-8 years old for a dozen or more years. One could also find her at choir practice singing tenor regularly.Annie Belle says the thing in life that has blessed her the most is having tak-en care of her two husbands during their last years of ill-ness and the years she spent taking care of a nurse, Bet-ty Brawley, who had had an aneurism, for several years. “That was God’s work, and I was privileged to do it.”This article is based on what we know about our aunt and what she has told us.

Obituary Local Obituaries ONLINE ourdavie .com Continued From Page 1worked through and dis-cussed along.”That continued with some final changes from an original figure of $1,934,000 for the General Fund. Rollins said that was due to the upcoming transi-tion in leadership and to ac-knowledge updated revenue forecasts to reflect a revised total close to $2.2 million.Rollins noted a projected increase in ABC revenues from $165,000 to $213,000 based on updated trends and an allocation of $200,000 in Powell Bill Fund Balance to provide additional resources Filing open for 2 seats as soil, water conservation supervisor B-R ... for eligible street and right-of way maintenance.The Gate Operations Fund shows an increase in gate attendant services contracted through Allied Universal, after the coun-cil, in what Rollins called “thoughtful review,” made the decision to increase net pay for gate attendants to reduce ongoing turnover at the gate houses due to the labor market and inflation-ary pressures.That meant the budget must propose the per parcel gate fee to increase from an annual $462 to $551.34. (The gate fee is collected by Davie County and shows up as a line item on the Davie County property tax bill.)Regarding the Utili-ties Fund, which remains unchanged from last year, Rollins stated that the fees for customers within the original section of Bermuda Run Country Club mirror the fees of eastern Davie water and sewer customers. Over time, this has allowed the build-up of sufficient reserves to pay cash for the Juniper Circle Pump Station and Wastewater Plant De-commissioning Project.Mayor Rick Cross of-fered thanks to Rollins “for this final budget and for be-ing such a steward for this town and a champion for this town and everything it stands for.”Council members praised and thanked Rollins for his work, dedication and service in their comments with Heather Coleman and Melinda Szeliga saying his presence was instrumental in them seeking office.“Just know you’re one of the reasons I’m here be-cause, meaning I ran be-cause I knew how wonder-ful the town you took care of and loved,” Coleman said.And Szeliga added: “It is definitely one of the reasons why I chose to run for Town Council being new to the community because I knew we already had great leader-ship.”Cross said that Rollins will be recognized in drop-by sendoff on Monday, June 27, from 4-6 p.m. at Win-Mock at Kinderton.In other highlights, the council:• Heard from Rollins that for residents in Kinder-ton Village, “we are work-ing with the contractor to attempt to complete that emergency access easement from RISE in July, weather permitting.”• Also heard from Rollins that he and Meadwell met with John Grey, town engi-neer, and the contractor for the decommissioning of the wastewater treatment plant – speaking with residents on either side of the drive that leads to it to let them know where the easement is lo-cated and to inform them as to what is to take place over the next six months or so. Rollins said that the date to start that project is July 25.• Heard from Cross that the expanded Davie County library now has book lock-ers next door at the David-son-Davie Community Col-lege Annex. • Heard from Cross of progress on the N.C. 801/US 158 intersection im-provements with the most recent communication from NCDOT being that it is looking at right-of-way ac-quisition later this summer for the northbound lane. Utilities will follow early next year with construction on that additional lane com-ing in the spring or summer of next year. 1267651 10 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 23, 2022 Bless Your Spoon By Stephanie Williams Dean ourdavie.com From left: dapt the recipe for Lady Baltimore Cake using your favorite combination of fresh, dried, or candied fruits and chopped nuts as a filling or frosting. Any cheese souffle can stand in as a green side dish by adding chopped broccoli or spinach as in Broccoli Souffle. Thickened Iced Cherry Soup makes for a pretty presentation for any cake or congealed salads or desserts. Use less ingredients just to bind Hash Browns; drop by spoonfuls in a skillet and fry for stacked potato cakes - with dollop of sour cream. A wedding day is such a sweet spot in life. The month of June has always been favored – brides clamor to the altar to tie the knot. The event's so anticipated that save-the-date cards are customary so guests can make plans to attend months in advance. Nowadays, a bride and groom's big day includes some of the most opulent parties to follow – splendid affairs. With no stone unturned – the big day is quite the spectacle. For me, there's true elegance – a quiet luxury in the un-derstated. So I opted for a more intimate and refined affair. In the early 80s, I married on a Saturday morning in the sanctuary of my hometown church – a simple, no frills, ceremony with family and close friends present. Following the wedding, guests were invited for an el-evated dining experience. The sit-down, plated brunch was held at The Hermitage Hotel, a historic hotel in down-town Nashville. I chose the multi-award-winning hotel not only for its Michelin star dining – but for the history. Designated a Nation-al Historic Landmark, the hotel first opened in 1910. With much to boast about – the hotel quietly and warmly delivers – the kind of charm southerners know best. Food fare was simple in na-ture and steeped in southern tra-dition. I'm proud of my down south heritage. For the entrée, I selected a hot, open-faced sand-wich of sliced turkey, tomatoes, and a roux-based béchamel sauce with added cheese called Mornay sauce. Known as the Kentucky Hot Brown – this iconic dish was created in 1926 by a chef at the Brown Hotel in Louisville, Ky. Don't let the idea of a sandwich fool you, as this legendary, high-comfort entree is a hearty and delicious dish. The chef was given artistic license for gourmet twists on grits, potatoes, a green, and fruit to compliment the meat. An assortment of pastries and sweet breads with bowls of honey and jams rounded out the meal. The menu was cho-sen to allow for judicious use of seasonal fresh fruits and veggies.An American classic was served for dessert. The deca-dent Lady Baltimore Cake is the lady with a past – she's got a history. While her past is debatable, the lovely confection is said to have originated in a tea room in Charleston, S.C. A perfect wedding cake representing love – it's definitely a labor of love to make. Light and fluffy cake layers are filled with favorite fresh or dried fruits and toasted nuts nestled between layers. Cake love measures high here, so I've shared two recipes. Of the two icings offered, one is from an old recipe – a boiled icing found in vintage cookbooks. There's a good reason for it - the icing's one of vanilla marshmallow flavor that whips up into a scrumptious fluffy cloud. The concoc-tion lives up to the adage of only getting better – as the ic-ing on the cake. Take culinary artistic license and combine your favorite fruits and nuts. I hunger for anything rooted in history – in nature and taste. And there's a charm and elegance to simplicity – a quiet, approachable luxury – the kind of luxury where all guests feel at home and whatever passes their lips tastes delicious. Our best food is the nourishment God offers – the kind that feeds our soul when calling out to Him. Just like we would die without physical food – we would starve spiritu-ally without God. Isaiah 55: 1-2 reads, "Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat! Without money and without cost, Why spend money on what is not bread, And you labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good, and your soul will delight in the richest of fare."

Wedding foods are steeped in history and good taste DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 23, 2022 - B1Sports By Brian PittsDavie Enterprise Record Part V in a series on the 40-year anniversary of the 1982 Mocksville Legion baseball team. Wade “Lefty” Stewart was a reserve outfielder for the 1982 Mocksville Legion baseball team. He didn’t play much - nine at-bats all season - but he was the consum-mate teammate. And when coach Ron Morgan called his number, he was the epitome of hustle. Ironically, John “Boomer” Bivins caught a little heat because of Lefty’s hustle on one particular play. “Lefty was playing center field and I was playing right,” Bivins said. “There was a grounder hit to me and I guess we were up be-cause I went down to one knee to make sure it didn’t go between the wickets. Well, that ball gets about right there and bounces way over my head. I turn around and I didn’t have to run for it because Lefty was already back there. I got yelled at for not running after the ball. I said: ‘Lefty was right there.’”A lot has changed in Mocksville since 1982. When Mocksville By Brian PittsDavie Enterprise Record Dan Loyd was the Mocksville Senior Legion baseball team’s starting pitcher in a loss to Con-cord on May 28 and in a loss to Hamlet on June 4, but he fully arrived in his third start of the season on June 12. Loyd was the biggest reason for a 5-1 win at Greensboro in the final non-division game of the season. “Loyd was the player of the game,” coach Charles Kurfees said. “He threw strikes. Not bad for somebody who didn’t pitch at all in high school (at North Iredell). I love him.”Loyd threw a four-hitter over six innings, walked two and struck out eight. He faced four batters in the first and second innings. He faced the minimum in the third, thanks to Blake Little starting a 6-4-3 double play. He got Greens-boro 1-2-3 in the fourth and fifth. He had a shutout going until the sixth, when the hosts used two hits and a walk to get their only run.“My fastball and curveball were working good,” Loyd said. “My changeup was working al-right - I got a couple strikeouts off of it - but it wasn’t working as good as I wanted it to.”This spring at North Iredell, Loyd started every game at third base but saw no mound action. The Legion season has been a con-fidence boost for the rising senior. “I had one inning in a scrim-mage and that was it,” he said of his junior season at N. Iredell. “We really didn’t have another third baseman and we had a good 1-2-3 (pitching staff). I was looking forward (to Legion) because our pitching coach (Randy Martin) at North has been working on my pitching because I’ve got to pitch a lot next year. So we’ve been work-ing on it, but I really haven’t gotten Please See 1982 - Page B2 ‘82 team faced adversity in first round Loyd lulls G’boro to sleep to use it until now in Legion. At one point my head was moving too much. I’ve improved my leg drive a good bit.”Mocksville made the most of five hits, three of which came in a four-run second. With Ryan Thiel and Hunter Daywalt aboard, Logan Allen dropped down a bunt hit to load the bases. One out later, Christian Brown singled. With two outs, Parker Aderhold walked with the bases loaded. On the next pitch, Little provided a two-run single. Post 174 tacked one on in the third. Lawrence Hancock singled to advance Daywalt, who would score on an error to make it 5-0. Little, who singled in the fourth, was Mocksville’s lone base runner over the last four innings, but it didn’t matter because of Mocksville’s one big inning and because of Greensboro’s three errors. (Mocksville, by contrast, was perfect defensively.)“They brought in a reliever in the fifth and he was throwing the ball hard,” Kurfees said. Little went 2 for 4. Allen, Han-cock and Brown all went 1-3. “Blake’s doing really good,” Kurfees said. “He’s the catalyst of the team.”Daywalt took the ball in the seventh and slammed the door as Mocksville kept the good vibes going after a 7-6, eight-inning win over Davidson County three days earlier. It was limping along at 2-10 before suddenly finding a pulse. “I don’t give a (durn) what any-body says. They can say (Greens-boro) didn’t have all their players or this and that,” Kurfees said. “They were better than us. They were stronger than us. They were bigger than us. They were older than us. And we beat ‘em. One reason is the guys are willing to work. If they weren’t working and practicing, we’d still be getting pounded like we did by Randolph. I play those good teams right off the bat because I want these kids to see what they’ve got to do and what Legion ball is about. We have improved. I’ve got (Matt) Tullock and (Patrick) Usher helping us. They’ve been working and loving it.”Parker Simmons highlighted the defensive effort. “Simmons has been an out-standing defensive player (at sec-ond base and outfield),” Kurfees said. By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Concord pounded the Mocks-ville Senior Legion baseball team unmercifully back on May 28. The score in that non-division game was 17-1. But Mocksville exorcised the May 28 demons in a June 17 game at Concord that counted in the Southern Division. Post 174 didn’t just win; it whipped Concord 7-2. Whoa. A three-game winning streak lifted Mocksville to 5-10 overall and 2-1 in the division. The Goose, Hunter Daywalt, has brought a jolt to the club since being pulled up from the junior team. The fifth-place batter went 3 for 4 with two runs and three RBIs. He’s hitting .400 (6-15). “We call him the Goose,” coach Charles Kurfees said. “In the fall, he would come in as our closer. We call him Goose after Goose Gossage (a former star closer in the major leagues). I’ve said all along, he’s a good baseball player - really good baseball player.”The night was equally fun for the 2-4 batters - Blake Little (2-4, two runs, double, triple), Dan Loyd (2-3, two runs, walk, double) and Ryan Thiel (2-4) - and Lawrence Hancock, who went 2-3 with a Daywalt gets 3 hits in win over Concord Please See Daywalt - Page B4 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The Mocksville Senior Legion baseball team was in dire straits as recently as June 8. It started 0-4 between May 21-28, extending its losing streak to nine dating to 2021. It suffered a six-game skid between June 1-8. It was 2-9 with six losses by 10 or more runs. The craziest thing has hap-pened. Mocksville has pulled off a turnaround that nobody could have predicted. A 5-2 home win over Concord on June 18 marked the fourth straight win in a span of 10 Legion extends winning streak to 4 days. Somehow, some way it rose to 3-1 in the Southern Division. “We’re playing good as a team,” coach Charles Kurfees said. “We work them hard and they’re getting better.”Mocksville could do no wrong in the second win in as many days over Concord, which belted Mocksville 17-1 in a May 28 non-division game. Dan Loyd, Blake Little, Ryan Thiel and Parker Simmons had big offensive nights, and Cole Whitaker and closer Hunter Daywalt provided strong pitching as Mocksville improved to 6-10 overall. “We played really well,” Kurfees said. Mocksville pounced on Con-cord in the bottom of the first inning. Little stroked a one-out single and advanced to second on a balk. Loyd smacked a double. Then Thiel hit a double, only to see Loyd thrown out at home. But Daywalt and Jackson Sink followed with hits as Mocksville took a 2-0 lead. The hosts doubled the margin in the third.

The jackets from ‘82 have been keepsakes for Matt Marion, who was the bat boy, and Todd Cassidy (right). B2 ‑ DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 23, 2022 Continued From Page B1ripped off five of six wins to lift its record to 9-4, everyone was engulfed in Mocksville mania. It was definitely a simpler time. “There was no McDon-ald’s or Bojangles,” 1982 bat boy Matt Marion said. “You had a five-and-dime store. You had Ray’s Music Shop. You had Ken’s Pool Hall. You had B.C. Moore’s. We had our four oak trees (at the square). That’s it. There wasn’t anything else to do. You didn’t have cell phones. You didn’t have computers. You didn’t get distracted with Facebook and Insta-gram. They were the boys of summer. That’s back when the boys of summer meant something.”Through 13 games, lead-off batter Barry Whitlock and cleanup man Mike Wilcox were 1-2 with .393 and .370 averages, respec-tively. After that warm-up, they took things to another level. Wilcox would hit .461 (30 for 65) over the final 16 games. Whitlock would hit .422 (30-71) in the same span. Whitlock, who wore No. 12 in football, basketball and baseball, was an inspi-ration for Marion, who wore No. 12 later in his Davie High career. “When I was a young kid - 8, 9, 10 years old - I was easily influenced and was looking for something to kind of grab a hold of,” Marion said. “I didn’t miss a game that Barry played. When I was 9 years old, my mom (Gigi) made a cross-stitch of Barry, and that has hung on my wall ever since. I wanted to be like Barry. I said: ‘I’m going to be No. 12 for the high school football team one day.’ And I was.”Whitlock’s stature (5-9, 160 pounds) didn’t wow anyone when he joined the Guilford College baseball team as a freshman. Aldine Payne, who hit .429 the year before Whitlock’s arrival, had no idea who the little freshman was in the fall of ‘82, but he can remember their first conversation as if it was yesterday. “We were practicing the first day or so, and this scrawny little thing walks up to me and goes: ‘You hit .429 last year?’” Payne said. “I said: ‘Yeah.’ He said: ‘I bet you $100 that I outhit you this year.’ I said: ‘OK, I’ll take that bet.’ Well, I owe him $300 because I never outhit him. He was the best hitter I ever played with. He had the quickest hands. That joker could hit. He would go deep and you’d go: ‘How does he do it?’ I believe he could have hit in a rocking chair. That’s how good a hitter he was.”When Whitlock’s bril-liant Guilford career ended, a span of 127 games, the 1982 ... center fielder/shortstop was top three for the Quakers in virtually every career cate-gory. He was No. 1 in hits (154), runs (118), stolen bas-es (50) and doubles (29). He was second in batting aver-age (.354, 154 for 435) and walks (93). He was third in slugging percentage (.519). He made all-conference and all-district teams as a freshman, junior and senior. “He should have been an All-American,” Payne said. “It probably was because we didn’t have the pitching to go far in the district.”Although Whitlock did not get a shot at pro ball, Payne said: “I really thought he had a chance to play in the minor leagues. He always rose to the occasion against good pitchers. With his size, people didn’t re-alize how good a hitter he was. And he could fly. He was a quiet leader. That’s funny because he talks all the time. When he talked on the field, we listened. Even during his freshman year, he took over.”When Morgan formed his roster, he plucked three players from Forbush High (Chris Renegar, Randy Tay-lor and Tim Wiles). Taylor played a key role in ‘82. “I went to see Renegar on a Saturday morning,” Mor-gan, 78, said. “He’s the one that told us about Randy. He said he’s the best ballplayer on the team, so James (Hugh Edwards) and I went and recruited him.”“I broke my right hand about seven or eight games into the season, so I didn’t get to play the second half of my senior season,” Taylor said. “As a matter of fact, when I went to Legion ball, I had a cast on my hand and I didn’t get to practice much. I couldn’t throw or hit, but I don’t think I missed any games.”Taylor immediately fell in love with Legion. “I was so excited to go over there and play,” he said. “I thought I was in the major leagues. It was awesome.”When Taylor showed up to practice in a 1955 Chevrolet Apache truck, the Whitlock twins - Ron and Russ, who were 14 - couldn’t stop laughing. “Lord have mercy, those boys were nice’uns,” Tay-lor said. “My brother had (that truck) and that’s what I drove over there to prac-tice and games, and those younger Whitlock boys thought that was the funniest thing that I’m driving over there in that 1955 truck.”Bivins, who always played first base before spending the summer of ‘82 in right field, wasn’t the only player who had to adjust to a new position. Taylor played second and Todd Cassidy, who had the greatest season of his life as a 1982 Da-vie senior at second base, played left field. “I played third base the whole time I was at For-bush,” Taylor said. “Steve Hardister had a heckuva arm (at third for Mocksville). I didn’t have nowhere near the arm he did.”“Barry and I played sec-ond and short together from the time we started playing through our senior year at Davie,” Cassidy said. “When (Morgan) separated us, I wasn’t happy, but I learned to play left field. Then when I went to col-lege, guess where I started? I started in left field because there was a guy from Cher-ryville who played second, and he was way, way better than me. So it was a good thing that I had learned how to play left field.”•••Mocksville’s blissful 9-4 record took an unexpected turn in the last week of the regular season. It bare-ly showed up for an 11-1 loss at Lexington. It was the worst margin of defeat of the season. Wilcox’s third-inning double gave Mocksville a 1-0 lead, but Lexington used four hits and two errors to take a 5-1 lead in the bottom of the third, and it was all but over. Things went consider-ably better two days later against visiting Moores-ville. Dan Riddle pitched a complete-game three-hitter and Hardister and Wilcox cracked two-run homers to fuel a 7-2 victory. Bivins and Hardister had two hits each. The next night, Mocks-ville hosted Thomasville. Almost two weeks earlier, Hardister’s pitching and hitting made the difference in a 4-3, 10-inning win over coach Dub Potts’ Tommies. Hardister burned Thomas-ville again in another 4-3 win. But not before Thom-asville grabbed a 3-0 lead in the fourth on homers by Robbie Sparks and Darwin Parks. Mocksville finally rallied in the eighth. Af-ter Wilcox and Hardister drew walks, No. 6 batter Taylor came through with a two-run double to left-cen-ter. Bivins followed with a game-tying single. Mocksville played small ball in the decisive ninth. Cassidy walked. Morgan ordered bunts from sluggers Jeff Burton and Wilcox, and both bunts were mishandled to load the bases. Hardister’s deep sac fly to left gave Post 174 a walk-off win. Wilcox, Taylor and Bivins had two hits apiece. Mocksville doesn’t win that one without stellar pitching from JJ Johnson. He shook off the two homers and went all nine. “I remember tryouts and I remember not being sure I was making the team be-cause I think everybody else were juniors and seniors,” Johnson, a 1984 Davie grad, said. “There was so much talent. It was a really hard lineup to crack. I believe I made the team because I was versatile. I could play infield, outfield and I could pitch.”After two straight wins, things went sideways. Statesville scored six runs on five hits in the bottom of the first and beat Mocks-ville 8-2. A 3-for-4 night by Wilcox, who had an inside-the-park homer to cut the deficit to 6-2 in the third, was nothing but a footnote. Hardister had two hits in dispiriting defeat. In the final regular-sea-son game, Mocksville lost at home to Concord. Fortu-nately, Mocksville had al-ready secured second place in the Southern Division, and the only thing on the line was pride. “Back then, you could get your (butt) whipped any night,” current Mocksville coach Charles Kurfees said. Rowan County ran away with first place at 16-2, followed by Mocksville (11-7), Statesville (9-9), Concord (9-9), Thomasville (8-10), Lexington (6-12) and Mooresville (4-14). The bottom three did not qualify for the playoffs, so the semi-finals matched No. 1 Rowan against No. 4 Concord and No. 2 Mocksville against No. 3 Statesville in best-of-seven series. Game 1 against States-ville was held at Rich Park on Friday, July 2. Mocks-ville suffered 5-4 heart-break. Game 2 at Statesville was certainly eventful, but Mocksville’s slump contin-ued. In the top of the third, Mocksville flexed its mus-cles while turning a 4-0 defi-cit into an 8-4 lead. Taylor clubbed a three-run homer. Wilcox went deep to center. Later in the inning, Kenny Riddle blasted a grand slam. But it was 8-8 by the end of the third and it was 16-10 Statesville after the seventh. Mocksville scored four in the top of the eighth, closing the gap to 16-14, and was still batting when there was a power failure. The lights went out and the game was suspended until Monday, July 5. In a bizarre twist, that meant Game 3 on July 4 would be played before the completion of Game 2. So it was a fork-in-the- road moment as Mocksville headed into the Fourth of July at Rich Park. Technical-ly, the Mocksville boys were down one-game-to-none in the series, but you know what they were thinking: A loss in Game 3 would spell doom. (Mocksville, by the way, would lose the Game 2 slugfest 21-17.)Before the critical Game 3, Wilcox delivered a moti-vational speech that would make Lou Holtz proud. This was out of character for Wilcox and his easygoing personality. “I couldn’t see Wilcox saying much because he was a quiet dude,” Kurfees said. “He was a quiet killer.”“He was quiet, but when he said something, you paid attention,” Bivins said. Before the game, the team gathered in right field. Wilcox stood up amidst tense silence. “We were down two games and we didn’t need to lose another one,” Bivins said. “He told a story and I can’t remember exactly the way it went. It was either somebody was buried alive or there was an avalanche and the guy was digging himself out. They found him dead however many days later, and he was two inches from the top. The guy gave up and he had two inches further to go. Wilcox told that story before that game. Our backs were against the wall. The moral of the story was don’t give up.”“I’ve got chill bumps now,” Marion said. Next week: Part VI. The Mocksville Junior Legion Developmental team had a tough time on the road against the Surry Pride on June 13, losing 12-2. Surry scored single runs in the first two innings. Mocksville made it 2-2 in the top of the third, but Surry pulled away with a five-run third. Joseph Johnson, Easton Sanders and Coco Colama-rino each had one hit to lead Mocksville. Ayden Sanders, Brice Wilson, Joshua Whita-ker and Cole Davidson had walks. Not only was Mocksville doubled up in hits (6-3), it committed five errors. WR 4, Mock 3A walk-off hit left Mocksville on the wrong end of a 4-3 defeat at West Rowan on June 15. The game was tied at 3 with West batting in the bottom of the fifth, when the batter singled on the first pitch and knocked in the clinching run.West got things moving with a run in the first inning. Mocksville scored three runs in the fourth to take a 3-1 lead. The offense in the inning was led by Ethan Dixon and Johnson, each driving in runs. West rallied to tie in the fourth. A. Sanders was on the mound for Mocksville. The pitcher allowed five hits and four runs over 4.1 innings, but only one run was earned as he struck out three.Davidson led Mocksville with two hits in two at-bats. Logan Allen went 1-2 with a walk. Nate Barr and Wilson both walked once. Mocksville was outhit 5-3. West won despite four errors. Mock 5, Surry 4Four days after getting smacked by the Surry Pride, Mocksville seized victory in walk-off fashion, thanks to a walk at the end of the game on June 17. Surry and Mocksville were tied at 4 with Mocks-ville batting in the bottom of the fifth when Mack Rid-enhour drew a bases-loaded walk.Mocksville got things started in the first inning when two runs scored on a Joseph Johnson groundout. Surry scored three runs in the second inningJoshua Whitaker got the start for Mocksville (3-3). The righty went three innings and allowed three runs - but none was earned. Jake Patton worked the final two innings and got the win. Mocksville, which had four hits to Surry’s two, was able to overcome five errors. Johnson went 2-3. Allen went 1-1 with two walks and three runs. Barr went 1-2 with two RBIs. And A. Sanders had two walks.

The key to a successful hatch – besides predators not breaking up nests – is how well poults survive for several weeks before they replace their downy birth plumage with actual feathers. At that point, they begin to fly and can avoid predators on the ground and take better ref-uge from weather.Periods of cold, wet weather spell disaster for tiny poults, as their moth-er hens have a difficult time keeping them dry. Once soaked by rain or wet ground foliage, poults have a difficult time drying out, often catching cold and dying. That’s why good weather from Memori-al Day through mid-June is the overriding key to a GET UP TO GET BACK BY MAIL ON A FIRESTONE VISA® PREPAID CARD WITH PURCHASE OF 4 ELIGIBLE TIRES WHEN YOU USE YOUR CFNA CREDIT CARD $ $ $ 90 6030 OFFER VALID 05.23.22–07.05.22 Eligible tires: Purchase Destination, Firehawk or WeatherGrip tires to be eligible for the $60 reward.

Wildlife Re-sources Commission moni-tors the hatch via hundreds of observers who record turkey sightings. After those statistics are com-piled, the commission will report on several important numbers: the percentage of hens observed with poults, and the average number of poults per hen. Any hatch that produces 2 poults per hen is a resounding suc-cess, but it’s been a long time since any Southeast-ern state has reached those levels. Fawning in full swingJune is when most of North Carolina’s whitetail fawns hit the ground run-ning, so be aware that the little rascals will be show-ing up more this month. Most whitetail does are bred from early November to early December; their gestation period is approx-imately 200 days. For the first several weeks of their lives, fawns are general-ly hidden by their moth-ers, who won’t venture far away in short absences to feed.Fawns are protected nby their hiding places, and for several weeks, they emit little scent, so predators in-cluding foxes and coyotes have more trouble locating and preying on them.Despite those factors, past surveys on deer herds in areas heavily populated by coyotes indicate that the predators take about half the fawns. Officials with the N.C. Wildlife Resourc-es commission have said that it takes two adult does to produce a single, surviv-ing fawn per year.An acquaintance’s daughter ran into a tiny fawn one morning this past week. Hearing a strange, plaintive noise from an area in her backyard, she inves-tigated and found a tiny fawn entangled in a garden fence. The fawn was freed and returned to the area outside the fence. Flounder season gets even shorterThe N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries slapped recreational fishermen in the face again this month, announcing that the season on southern flounder will be four weeks instead of the proposed six.The season will open at 12:01 a.m. on Sept. 1 and close at 11:59 p.m. on Sept. 30. The DMF originally worked in a framework that would have opened the sea-son on Aug. 15 and extend-ed it through September.NCDMF is intent on re-ducing the total (commer-cial and recreational) catch of southern flounder by 72 percent. NCDMF report-ed that recreational fisher-men were responsible for 560,440 pounds of flounder removed from the fishery, including an estimated 150,000 pounds of fish that were hooked, caught and released but wound up dy-ing.As such, the recreational quota was reduced for 2022 to account for the fish that anglers took in 2021 that were over the anticipated catch level.Fishermen will be al-lowed one flounder per day during the month-long season, with a 15-inch size minimum in play. Commercial fishermen catch 70% of southern flounder in North Carolina waters. The commission, the appointed board that oversees the agency, voted earlier this year to retain that 70/30 split for at least two more years. Hunters planning a date with a big gobbler should be crossing fingers for another two weeks of good weather, which often leads to a good hatch and more turkeys in the woods. North Carolina fishermen will be able to keep only one flounder during the Sept. 1-30 open season, and flounder must measure at least 15 inches. - Photos courtesy Dan Kibler New Pool & Spa InstallationCleaning • ChemicalsOpening & ClosingVinyl Liner Replacement Tommy Harris/Owner – Over 30 Yrs.

Little is hitting .437 (7-16) during a four-game hitting streak and .362 overall. Loyd went 5-6 in the back-to-back wins over Concord, raising his average from .306 to .363. Meanwhile, Whitaker churned out six innings on the mound. He scat-tered eight hits, walked one, struck out six and allowed one earned run. The outing matched his longest of the season, and his overall num-bers are keep getting better, like 21 strikeouts against seven walks in 26 innings. In the fourth, when it was 4-0, Concord loaded the bases with one out. The unflappable Whitaker kept his shutout going by strik-ing out a batter looking and inducing a flyout to right fielder Sink. He gave up his first run in the fifth, but got help from Lawrence Han-cock, who started a double play, to keep the lead at 5-1. Daywalt took over in the seventh and got the save by fanning two of four batters. “I was hoping Cole would get a shutout,” Kurfees said. “He just mowed them down. He did really good. He had I don’t know how many first-pitch strikes. Man, he got ahead of them and we played good defensive be-hind him. Cole was pretty Streak ... much the story of the game.”Mocksville had 13 total hits, including one from Aderhold, Daywalt, Sink and Hancock. and walked five. After a 1-2-3 first, he had to work around two walks in the third. He overcame a double and a walk in the fourth. After giving up a leadoff ho-mer in the fifth, two singles and a walk loaded the bases. To Shore’s credit, he got the next man and kept his team’s lead at 4-2. “It wasn’t his best game,” Kurfees said. But Sink delivered his finest work of the season while making his fifth relief appearance. He faced the minimum in the sixth and seventh. In fact, Concord didn’t get the ball out of the infield against Sink, who earned the staff’s first save of the season. “Jackson looked the best that I’ve seen all season,” Kurfees said. “Plus, he came in and hit a double that scored two runs.”Notes: Mocksville outhit Concord 12-5. ... Among guys averaging more than one at-bat per game, Little (.351, 19 for 54) and Loyd (.326, 17-52) are the top two bats. Shortstop Blake Little waits for the throw on a steal play at Rowan County.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, June 23, 2022 - B7 Sheffield-Calahaln By Betty Etchison WestPino/Cana Correspondent The last couple of weeks have been busy for the usual sleepy villages of Cana and Pino. That has not been the case since June. The first Sunday in June was homecoming at Wesley Chapel United Methodist Church. A large crowd at-tended the worship service and then enjoyed a fellow-ship meal. Special guests and former members of who attended included: Glenda White Sapp of Wyo; Jim-my; Liz Dull of Clemmons; Ryan and Christie Gentry Gardner of Charlotte, who joined her father, Pete Gen-try, and her sister’s family, the Brock familyFamily, Andrea, Andrew, Scarlet, Stella, and Turner Brock of Mocksville, and Andrew Brock’s mother, Marga-ret Jo Harpe Brock, for the worship and lunch. Marlene Dull Trivette was joined by her grandsons, Nick of Greensboro and Sean Rouse, of Pino, her daugh-ter, Vicki, and Robert Bu-chin for worship and lunch. Members of the West family who worshipped and had lunch with their mother, all of Pino. and Betty Etchi-son West, were:Frances West Tutterow, Elizabeth Tutterow Burchette and her son, Joseph, Al and Susan West Cujas and their son, Oliver, Henry West and his son, Alexander. Homecom-ing was a bit sad for the West family family because of the death of Roland West, who was always proud to have his family join him on the back church pews for homecoming. Members of Wesley Chapel appreciat-ed having Angela Riddle Williams play the piano for homecoming. Angela is the director of music at Farm-ington Methodist.The people of Pino were glad to have Tom and Toni Horton back at Wesley Chapel after they spent the winter in Florida.Bob and Kathy Ellis, Kathy’s sunt, Ann Cline, Rick and Judy Wilson, and Judy’s mother, Vio-let Coursey, spent a week on the N.C. Outer Banks. They enjoyed their visit, in-cluding a visit with Kathy’s Aunt, Peggy Cline Angell in Manteo. The Ellis’ grand-son, Jayden Ellis, of Raleigh is coming to spend some time with his grandparents, Kathy and Bob Ellis, this summer.The family of Pastor Ar-nold Gosnell will be going to Lake Junaluska to attend the Western N.C. United Methodist Annual Confer-ence. Lisa Dixon West will attend as the Lay Delegate for the Farmington Charge, and Kathy Ellis will accom-pany Lisaher.The people of Cana re-ceived sad news that Glenna Collette Lagle died. Glen-na Collette, the daughter of Noah and Tossie Ferebee Collette, grew up in Cana in the last house in the village before the Eaton’s Church Road. Glenna moved to Mocksville from Cana after she married Andrew La-gle. She died at her home in the Aldergate Retirement Home in Charlotte where she moved when she could no longer live alone at her home in Mocksville. Glen-na moved from Mocksville to Charlotte to be near her daughter, Susan Lagle Val-enti, and enjoyed living at Aldergate. Glenna was active in Mocksville Pres-byterian. Her funeral was held at the church. She was buried at Rose Cemetery in Mocksville beside her hus-band.Saturday, June 11, Amy Cujas, daughter of Al and Susan West Cujas of Cana, and Ryan Applegate, son of Jim and Sandi Applegate of Jacksonville, Fla., were married in the back yard at Frostland, Amy’s ancestral home, and the present home of Frances Etchison Tutte-row, who served as hostess. Amy’s great-great grand-parents, John and Nana Cain Etchison, bought Frostland from Nana’s uncle, John-ny Frost, in 1916. John-ny Frost, who was Amy’s great-great-great uncle, built the house now called Frostland in 1886, 30 years before it was purchased by John and Nana Etchison. It was there in the backyard at Frostland in front of a beautiful magnolia tree that Amy and Ryan spoke their wedding vows in a ceremo-ny led by the Rev. Darrin Crotts, a longtime friend of the Cujas family. The wedding party was made up of seven brides-maids, a maid of honor, Amy’s sister, Missy Cujas; eight groomsmen, one of which was Ryan’s brother, Eric Applegate; two junior bridesmaids, Amy’s cous-ins, Harper and Reese Tut-terow; two junior grooms-men, Amy’s brother, Oliver, and her cousin, Joseph Bur-chette; two flower girls, Callie and Piper Cress; and ring bearer, Amy’s cousin, 3-year-old Tripp Vance of East Bend. Amy was given in mar-riage by her father, Al Cu-jas, and her mother, Susan West Cujas. Many of the bridesmaids and grooms-men were college friends of Amy’s and Ryan’s, who graduated from Catawba Cana/Pino Frostland transformed into wedding venue for a day The grounds at Frostland are manicured for the wedding. College in Salisbury.Approximately 175 peo-ple attended the wedding and the dinner. Dancing fol-lowed in a large tent. Many out-of-town friends and relatives at-tended: Amy’s aunt, Marty Etchison Babcock and her cousin, Patrice Etchison, from Cary; her aunt, Rachel Etchison from Siler City; three of Al Cujas’ brothers, their wives, and his sister all of Ford City, Pa. A large number of the groom’s family, including his parents, his brother, and his grandparents, as well as aunts and uncles came from Jacksonville, Fla. The vis-itors from Florida were en-tertained one day by Amy’s cousins, Ina and Donald Kamentz, who shared Cana history, which included a visit to the Old Cain’s Store. The groom’s parents hosted a dinner at a restau-rant in Statesville for the members of the wedding party and their families.Minutes before guests were to begin arriving in Cana for the wedding, a large tree fell across Cana Road between the Old Cain’s Store and Frostland. Donald Kamentz and Joe Burchette quickly sprang into action and were well on the way to getting the giant tree removed by the time William R. Davie Fire De-partment members arrived. Another emergency averted. These musicians enjoy jamming at the Meatlocker on Mondays: Robbie Williams, Ed Hall, Terry Collier, David Mode, Johnny Marion and Eddie Porter.
