Sadly, this young family was unexpectedly taken from this world on April 18. The story is probably familiar to many in our community who knew Ashton Brown and her family. (The three are believed to have been killed by her boyfriend and the father of the children, who then took his own life.) Still helping kids Ashton’s parents don’t want the tragedy of what happened on that day in April to be the end of her story. They opened the Ashton G. Brown Memorial Scholarship last week to remember Ash-ton’s 27th birthday on Nov. 14. The scholarship will remem-ber Ashton while helping high school athletes from Davie County High School.Ashton Brown was a kind soul, according to her fam-ily and friends. She loved sports as a young girl, playing basketball and softball from an early age. She played both sports all four years of high school and went on to play collegiate softball at Shaw University in Raleigh for two seasons before transferring to Winston-Salem State Univer-sity. Ashton was a 2014 schol-arship recipient of the Davie County Training School – Central Davie High School Reunion Scholarship under the Davie Community Founda-tion. She pursued a bachelor’s Ashton Brown and her children, Bella Rose and Brixtyn. A scholarship has been es- tablished to remember the three who died earlier this year. - Submitted Photo Scholarship started in memory of slain mother and her children See Scholarship - Page 5 By Jim BuiceEnterprise Record BERMUDA RUN - Five years ago when the town coun-cil considered adding a com-munity policing officer through an agreement with the Davie County Sheriff’s Department, council member John Gugliel-mi made a joke about expecting to see Barney Fife on patrol.Fast forward to today – af-ter that board ultimately gave approval in 2017 by a slim 3-2 margin to provide one officer for 40 hours per week – when the council this time agreed unanimously to a five-year re-newal extension.The estimated cost for fiscal year 2022-23 is $93,337, which includes salary/benefits, ve-hicle, equipment and gas, and includes a 2 percent increase each year of the contract. The cost for the first year of the ini-tial deal was $76,220 for fiscal year 2017-18.“The proposal has a little bit of an increase with the majority related to an increase in vehicle cost and an increase in salaries and benefits,” said Sheriff JD Hartman, who gave a brief pre-sentation at last week’s council meeting. “I think we’ve had a very successful five years. You’ve had three different community officers. We went through a whole thing that no-body has been through called COVID.”Hartman provided some sta-tistics from 2022 through Nov. 7, stating there had been 1,620 CAD (computer-aided dis-patch) activities that included Officer in town positive Bermuda Run extends contract with sheriff Please See Officer - Page 4 The Enterprise Record will be printed and distributed a day early next week.Newspapers will be distrib-uted in newsracks on Tuesday, and local subscribers should receive their copies in Thurs-day’s mail.The deadline to submit any news or advertisements for next week’s issue is at noon on Friday, Nov. 18.

Trump lied from the time he took office until he left. He started on his Inaugu-ration Day, when he lied about the size of the crowd. And remember back in 2019 when Trump altered a map show-ing the path of Hurricane Dorian with a Sharpie. These two lies were pretty inconsequential. One of Trump’s worst lies was probably how he down-played the coronavirus. He told America, it was “going to disappear,” “totally under control” and “99% of CO-VID-19 cases are totally harmless.” We lost over a mil-lion people in the US to coronavirus. By comparison, in Australia they had about 15,000 Covid-related deaths; and To the editor:I would like to thank Dr. (Darin) Hartness for advocat-ing for our college students here in Davie County. In order for our bright young adults to get a well-rounded educa-tion that will serve them greatly in the future, they must be exposed to other points of view, differing cultures and socio-economic theories. This is not “indoctrination”, but rather a means to foster empathy, compassion and intel-ligent thought in a world full of hate, extremism and fear-mongering.It is a parent’s duty to build the spiritual foundation and value system in their children’s lives. As such, we must allow our competent and trained educators to form the in-tellectual direction of our youth. Politicians who want to impart misinformation and/or their own fundamentalist be-liefs on the rest of us have no place making these decisions. I would much rather speak to an actual educator about what they are teaching than listen to politicians and certain news organizations, who only place misinformation on a platter to the public to serve themselves.As a parent and grandparent in Davie, I have seen the Donald Trump: The king of the liars if you take Florida, which has a smaller population - over 80,000 people died from Covid. Had Trump not contin-ued to lie about the situation, maybe many of those people would here today. And who can forget how Trump lied about the results of the 2020 election. We’ve seen all the people close to him; his staff, his lawyers, his family; tell him that he lost the election, but he continued to lie about it. And that lie led to the attack on the Capital where five people died and 140 police officers were injured. And all of that was prevent-able if Trump had not continued to lie. According to one source, Trump lied over 30,000 times during his four years in office. So if you want someone to teach people how to lie - get Trump. Blake Huntington , Advance Support educators, not create division hard work and determination of our educators and I am very thankful for the long hours and extra care they give so effortlessly. We are very blessed to have the educational system that we have here, and my children would not be successful in their occupations had it not been for the edu-cational foundation provided by Davie County Schools.

BishopApproximately an hour away from Mocksville is the small community of Vale in Lincoln County. It is nearly all rural with farming being the predominant industry. How-ever, one wonderful point of interest in Vale is the Hart Square Village which held its 37th Living History Festival on October 22nd. The drive there was pleasant until we had to inch along to the parking area while thinking “is this going to be worth it?”Well, I have to say, once we got into the village, it was well worth the wait. It is only open for special events like this one, but they do offer school field trips and classes in wood carving, survival skills and leather working. The classes generally focus on teaching pioneer skills that face extinction to ensure these skills are passed on to future generations. During this festival, many volunteer artisans and living historians passed along their knowledge to show visitors what life would have been like in the early 1800’s. Here, you will not find glass cases or roped off areas. Visi-tors are invited into a space that feels like a family or craft person just got up and walked out momentarily. As their vision statement indicates, they wish to instill a pioneering spirit in the next generation.Hart Square Village was founded in 1973 by Dr. Bob Hart and his wife Becky. He was a local physician who loved sharing his Early American historic passion with others, especially children. There are over 100 structures with most being over 200 years old which have been pre-served and maintained by the Hart Square Foundation. Some of these structures are the last of their kind; the vil-lage is the world’s largest collection of historic log struc-tures. You will see a Groundhog Kiln which produced folk-pottery, the Holstein Cotton Gin (circa 1820) which was mule-powered for cotton ginning and even one building that came from Mocksville.The Byerly Drying Barn (circa 1800s) was donated by Dr. Grimes Byerly of Mocksville and moved to Hart Square in 1983. It is the only structure moved to Hart Square from outside of the Catawba Valley area. Most structures were generously donated and moved to their current location with an inscription on each detailing what type of building it is, how it was used and where it came from. While in the valley (Vale), my husband and I had a pleas-ant visit with my cousin, Sylvia, and her family. So, we’ll probably be coming back for more visits to this area. The upcoming holiday season would be a good time to check out Hart Square. They have several events planned sur-rounding Thanksgiving and Christmas. You may have to wait a bit to get in, but it will be worth it. Autumn Sky Pegasus, The Winged HorseBy David R. MooreHigh overhead in the autumn night sky is the Great Square of Pegasus: The Winged Horse. Look for the neck and head of Pegasus emerging from the upper right-hand corner of the square. From the star at the lower right-hand corner, you will find a crooked line of stars outlining the front leg of Pegasus. At the upper left corner of the square, you will see a bright curved line of stars that make up the giant wings of Pegasus. If you look carefully, you’ll see a nearly parallel line of faint stars above the horse’s wings. That is Princess Andromeda catching a ride on Pegasus. The companion to our Milky Way Galaxy is the An-dromeda Galaxy. Although the spiral galaxy is 2.5 mil-lion light-years away, this misty patch can be seen with the naked eye. Use binoculars or a small telescope to see the spiral-shaped beauty. It is found just above the wings of Pegasus. Pegasus is one of the best-known creatures of Greek my-thology. He was a winged stallion who struck his hoof into the soil of Mt. Helicon and brought forth the Hippocrene, a sacred spring to the Muses. The Greek hero Bellerophon rode Pegasus to battle many monsters, including Chimera. Eventually, Pegasus was brought to Mt. Olympus by Zeus, where one of his duties included carrying Zeus’ thunder-bolts. Pegasus was immortalized by being turned into a constellation that all can view in the Autumn sky. Come to Downtown Mocksville Friday night, and have a blast.It’s a tradition.The annual ‘Twas the Night Before” bed races will take place, bringing hundreds - maybe thousands - of spectators into town just to be part of the fun.And it is fun.It doesn’t matter that most of the teams entered in the bed race take it seriously - very seriously. They want to win. They load their teams with fit athletes. They buy the latest in wheel technology. They buy into some pretty out-rageous theories as to what will make their bed the fastest and easiest to maneuver.That doesn’t always work, so you folks watching from the front row beware: sometimes the racers lose control and the beds go off course. Be ready.These aren’t your normal beds. There are a few restric-tions, including one brave person riding in the bed while others push. The bed creations teams come up with is pret-ty interesting. The decorations and costumes are even more interesting - downright entertaining.The race officially kicks off the Christmas season in Da-vie County. There’ll be plenty of music, games and street dancing in between some of the races. In other words, a good time should be had by all.I remember well that first bed race. Tami Langdon and Denise Hendrix had worked long hours beforehand, but I don’t think they nor anyone else really knew what to ex-pect. But it was obvious after that first race that this had to become an annual event. Folks had a blast, laughing and cheering from the sidewalks well into the night.It was that popular. And it was that much fun. The state’s Main Street group recognized that as well, and awarded Mocksville the event of the year a few years back.Event of the year?You betcha, and it happens right here in Mocksville.The first race starts soon after 6 p.m., but Main Street in downtown will be closed starting at 5. Traffic getting into town could be heavy, so arrive early. Drive slowly, and watch out for pedestrians. Restaurants will be open. Food trucks will be on site.The weather forecast is for clear skies and cool tempera-tures. We couldn’t ask for a more fun way to usher in the Christmas season.See you there.- Mike Barnhardt DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Nov. 17, 2022 - 3 THIS AREA’S LARGEST SELECTION OF LA-Z-BOY COMFORT FOR YOUR HOME!

Continued From Page 1 164 traffic stops and 182 calls related to mental com-mitments at the hospital.“Over the last five years of the contract, the hospital is the top place we answer calls at,” he said. “Of the 1,620 CAD activities, 192 reports are all that we’ve taken as far as criminal re-ports. Larcenies always seem to be the top report we take in Bermuda Run and then fraud.”Hartman added he com-puted “something a little different as far as deputies spending time inside the city limits for the totality of hours spent here so far this year with 13,999 hours, which is the equivalent of 6½ full-time deputies spending time in your city.”Mayor Rick Cross said: “That’s a lot of coverage. Sheriff Hartman, we thank you so much for all you and your staff do for our com-munity and our county.”Council members echoed those comments with a vote of confidence and support for the community officer program. That’s in stark contrast to five years ago when it barely passed with Guglielmi and council member Ed Coley opposed, saying they didn’t see the value of the position.“Golf carts and kids driv-ing golf carts is a big part of what drove this discussion, and the speed,” Coley said at the time. “Even with this community officer, I don’t think we’ll be able to do anything about that.”Guglielmi added, “What are we trying to protect ourselves from? I’ve never had anyone tell me they feel threatened in Bermuda Run. I’m a little concerned with what we’re trying to estab-lish.”At that time, Cross was in his first year as a council member along with Mike Ernst. Jerry West joined them in support for the po-sition – which goes above and beyond what the county offers in terms of coverage.“We need to make sure we are thinking about how to provide the best safety and security for our peo-ple,” Cross said at the time. “The community police of-ficer has to get to know the people in the town. This is not just a sheriff’s deputy that drives around. They have to engage people and get to know the residents and the businesses.”Ernst concurred, saying: “If we do this agreement, we’re not going to eliminate all the golf carts issues or speeding issues. When you start seeing a presence of a law enforcement officer, your behavior changes. We have heard a lot of talk from citizens that have concerns about security. We represent them, not ourselves.”Also in last Tuesday night’s meeting, Town Manager Andrew Meadwell gave an update on the NC-DOT’s public meeting showing alternatives for the proposed new interchange over I-40 project at Balti-more Road on Nov. 3.Meadwell said that 123 people attended the meeting with most of the comments being positive for what he called “a project of great importance in eastern Davie County and Bermuda Run” and that it was important for the town to continue to ad-vocate for it.In other Bermuda Run news:• In the other action item on the agenda, the coun-cil approved an agreement involving receiving grant funding for infrastructure improvements to assist the town in removing its waste-water discharge from the Yadkin River and transfer-ring it to the Eastern Davie County Regional Wastewa-ter System by upgrading the Juniper Pump Station and removing the Bermuda Run Wastewater Treatment Plant.• Kelly Funderburk, Davie County Register of Deeds, gave a presenta-tion in the meeting on the “Thank a Vet” program for local service members and encouraging veterans to re-cord their DD-214 military discharge form – free of charge – at the Register of Deeds Office, where they will get a photo discount card that entitles them to discounts and freebies at participating county busi-nesses.• Meadwell said that the long-awaited bridge com-ing from North Dakota for the Blue Heron Trail “has finally made it and been placed after a couple of at-tempts to set it. So we are close to having this project complete.” Cross added that the first phase of the trail being “open” sometime in January means that the trail is paved, fully lighted, fully seeded with grass growing and crosswalks marked, and that the town is looking at further beneficial enhance-ments, including landscap-ing.• Meadwell also fol-lowed up on the E-911 ad-dressing topic, which head-ed the conversation in the October meeting. He said that along with reviewing the ordinance, he is creating Officer ... an information sheet to get folks to post the numbers on houses of residences and businesses.• Cross said that he hap- pened to run into the op-erator of the Chick-fil-A in Clemmons, who will also have the Chick-fil-A in Ber-muda Run and learned that work on the restaurant in the Lowes Shopping Cen-ter on NC 801 will start in December with an opening date planned for May 1.

She had a passion for children, especially those with special needs. Ashton had two children of her own, Bella Rose and Brixtyn. She was a wonderful teacher and an even better mother. “She was a mama that loved her babies,” said Christina Stuckey, Ashton’s mother. “They were everything to her.”In June 2022, Ashton’s friends hosted a softball tournament in her memory. Organizer Valerie Langley played softball with Ashton and knew it was “her first love before her kids.” “Ashton had a great sense of humor and always kept the team upbeat,” said Langley.

Foundations join efforts in weight loss program those 85 years and older. Heart disease and many other chronic diseases are driven by risk factors such as weight, diet, and blood pressure. Fortunately, these risk factors are controllable, es-pecially with the help of a trusted provider and struc-tured program, said Kaleah Hendren, nurse practitioner.The goal of the program is to lower blood pressure and body mass index (BMI) for participating patients in a sustainable and healthy way.The self-monitored pro-gram consists of patients journaling daily blood pressure, exercise, and food intake; free monthly weight-management coun-seling sessions; and check-in appointments with the provider every three months to review progress and ad-dress concerns.The foundation grant was used for initial expens-es, materials, and equip-ment necessary to support the program, including digi-tal blood pressure monitors, pedometers, digital weight scales, and wellness jour-nals.“Grants from the Davie County Hospital Founda-tion Fund are made once a year for projects that im-prove healthcare in Davie County. The Davie Com-munity Foundation is ex-cited to support the Family Care Center of Mocksville’s Hypertension & Weight Management Program. Pro-viding patients with a risk of heart disease the tools needed to lower their blood pressure and BMI align with the Wellness and Preven-tion focus of the healthcare grant, and we look forward to hearing positive results,” said Melissa O’Conner, se-nior program officer for the foundation.Several patients have enrolled, but Family Care Center of Mocksville antici-pates the program will serve approximately 100 patients per year. This grant helped the center get the program started and will supply par-ticipants with equipment needed to aid them on their wellness journey without placing a financial burden on the patient.“We are honored to col-laborate with the Davie Community Foundation to promote health and well-ness to the citizens of Davie County. We strive to provide resources and education to our patients in order to help them achieve their health care goals,” said Hendren, who oversees the program.To learn more, call 336-753-0800. ly weapon, dismissed, vic-tim is deceased; two counts assault with a deadly weap-on, dismissed, victim unable to be served/out of state.- Andrew Lee Camp, resisting officer, sentenced to time served, $237.50 at-torney fee; interfering with emergency communication, dismissed per plea.- Elise Martinous Corn, driving while license re- voked DWI revocation, sentenced to 45 days to run concurrent with any sen-tence now serving; expired registration, operating vehi-cle with no insurance, pos-session of open container/consuming alcohol in pas-senger area, dismissed per plea.- Steven Monroe Dillon, DWI, guilty, sentencing will be 12/1; speeding 94 in a 65, reckless driving, no license, canceled/revoked/suspend-ed certificate/tag, dismissed per plea.- William Jean Ellis Jr., hit/run leaving scene of property damage, failure to reduce speed, dismissed, civil settlement.- Amanda Belle Fowl-er, simple possession of a 8 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Nov. 17, 2022 The Rotary Club of Mocksville celebrated its 75th anniversary in Oc-tober - two years overdue thanks to Covid-19 - but it made seeing old friends even more enjoyable.Rotarians and guests en-joyed a social time at the Junker Barn near Mocks-ville.

The mix and pour recipes are so easy.Recently I went to a res-taurant/bakery in Winston-Salem to redeem a $25 gift certificate. I debated wheth-er to enjoy a meal there or buy a whole cake or pie with the money. It's been so long since I purchased whole pies and cakes – I was astounded by the prices. But knowing the holi-days were approaching, I decided to buy a Pecan Pie. My decision was based on the amount of credit I had to spend – as cakes were well above $30, but some pies were "only" $25. But I could freeze the pie – and have one less dessert to bake at Thanksgiving. Mind you – I bake several desserts for a holiday.In a mess of vintage reci-pes and newsprint clippings, I discovered this old price list and goodie directory from the bakery at Harvey's Department Store. As they say, things change – and so does pricing. In the early '70s, an 8-inch Pecan Pie cost $2.85, Chocolate Meringue was $2.75, and a Coconut Me-ringue totaled a whopping $2.35. Individual chess and fruit pies were 55 cents. Both prepared pastry and meringue shells cost 65 cents each – meringue was offered with a 3-day notice. With a quality mixer, it takes me about 5 minutes to whip up a homemade pie – a little bit longer for a cake. I believe a baker's failed "flop" is often due to inad-equate blending, so I can't express how strongly I feel about having good equip-ment. Kitchen Aid makes a great product that's worth every penny. If you invest in anything – buy one of their mixers. All work's made easier with the right tools – and there's no exception when baking or cooking. Regarding ingredients, let me say one thing about butter – butter changes ev-erything. I rarely bake any pie, cake, or confection that doesn't include the real stuff. If the recipe calls for marga-rine – I use butter instead – it adds so much flavor and is healthier, too. When baking – you get what you pay for. So buy the best ingredients you can afford – in this case, brands do matter. Especially with your chocolate – Her-shey's for cocoa and Bakers for melting chocolate – or use the more premium – but never cheap out here. I only use Crisco for shortening and Karo for corn syrups. I have found brands of butter, flour, sugar, baking powder, and soda – are negligible to Rain DateSaturday, Nov. 19th Employeeowned Established in1921 Globalmanufacturer Scan to viewour currentvacancies Hiringnow Go ahead, make a homemade pie this year most people and still pro-duce a tasty baked good. I realize the cost of in-gredients has gone up, but if you read the grocery ads – you can still find baking goods on sale. A little ef-fort's involved in following the ads and going to differ-ent grocery stores – but the savings are worth it during holidays. Today's prices make me a tad more indus-trious about baking my own pies, cakes, and desserts. And like when baking – in life, we get what we pay for, also. I'm referring to the times we pay it forward. In the Bible, scripture found in Matthew 22:39 tells us of the Pharisees' de-sire to distinguish the more important of the command-ments. Jesus replied that loving the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and mind is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is to "love your neighbor as yourself." Therefore, it is pointed out that all other commands are kept by fulfilling these two commands. I love Solomon's wis-dom and practical truths found in Proverbs. Proverbs 28:27 reads, "He who gives to the poor will lack noth-ing, but he who closes his eyes to them receives many curses." We are promised in scripture that God will meet all our needs – and of- Houses, Decks, Driveways Gutter Cleaning, Roof Wash ten through meeting other people's needs when we give of our time and service.

The War Eagles hit rock bottom that winter and ran the table in reverse (0-25). Then Lindsey Adams was hired as coach and the up-from-oblivion story began. Even though she was a 21-year-old rookie coach, Adams bled three wins - against nine losses - out of the 2020-21 squad. The long uphill climb contin-ued in 2021-22. The pesky War Eagles improved dramatically and went 9-14 overall and 7-7 in the Central Piedmont Conference. They’ve gone from last in the CPC to second-to-last to fourth over the past three years. The .500 CPC record was a big accomplishment since Davie had managed just five league wins over the previous five seasons. It also earned the most wins in six years. In 2022-23, we’ll finally get to see what happens when Adams has an experienced squad. There are seven returners. Sydney Dirks, Somer Johnson and Keelyn Oakes are fourth-year varsity players. A seasoned veteran has transferred from West Forsyth to Davie. You can understand why the War Ea-gles are as excited as they’ve been in quite a while. Davie traveled to Freedom on Saturday to scrimmage four teams that posted winning records last year. Davie beat South Caldwell (13-9 last year) and Providence (18-7). It lost to Lincoln Charter (22-7) and Newton-Conover (24-3). The loss to N-C was by six points. The 2-2 showing against that caliber of competition con-firmed Adams’ belief that there’s a genuine opportunity for Davie’s first winning season since 2015-16 and the first playoff appearance in seven years. “All of that was without Kenadi (Gentry, the leading scorer last year who was out with a sprained ankle),” Adams said. Johnson, who nearly doubled her scoring average from her sophomore to her junior season, looks primed for a big senior sea-son. Last year she put up a pair of 21-point performances. In a War Eagle girls basketball experienced and deep win over Glenn, she racked up 16 points, six steals and four rebounds while sinking 9 of 12 free throws. The wing averaged 9.6 points and has attracted college offers from Brevard, Bridgewater (Virginia) and Agnes Scott (Georgia). “She’s become a lot tougher and more physical,” Adams said. “She’s become more consistent and more confident as a shooter. We’ve been working a lot at get-ting her 3-point shot off faster, and now she’s added the ability to attack the rim. Most teams know she’s a shooter, so being able to pump fake, attack the rim and finish through contact makes her more of a scoring threat. I think she’s going to shock a lot of people this year.”The leading scorer from last year is entering her third varsity season. As a sophomore, Gentry delivered six games of 16-plus points; she had 13 points, seven rebounds, seven steals and four assists in one game; she had 21 points, six rebounds and five steals in one game; and she had The Davie cross country team wrapped up a successful season Nov. 5 at the state championship meet at Kernersville’s Ivey Red-mon Park. Two Davie runners competed in the 4-A race by virtue of their performances at the Mid-west Regional. In a field of 179 finishers, senior Owen Sulecki and soph-omore Thomas Essic went toe to toe with the best the Tar Heel state had to offer. When the dust cleared, Sulecki had claimed 85th place with a time of 17:12. Essic crossed the line in 113th with a time of 17:29. In the team race, Green Hope took home the championship with 124 points to outdistance Charlotte Catholic (166), Mt. Ta-bor (178), Weddington (178) and Marvin Ridge (197). Pinecrest’s Zach Gilbertson surged ahead of Weddington’s Caden Townsend over the final 100 meters to win the individual title in 15:28.The Cuthbertson girls easily took the team title with 32 points to outpace Cardinal Gibbons (81), Marvin Ridge (136), Weddington (157) and Hoggard (180). Cuth-bertson’s Stella Kermes was the individual winner in 17:40 as she edged Myers Park’s Mary Bonner Dalton by four seconds.“It was a bit of an adventure for our guys today,” said coach Rob Raisbeck. “First of all, due to our placing at regionals, Owen and Thomas had to start in the second row. That put them at a tremendous disadvantage coming off the line and they got buried. At the half mile mark, they were among the last 15 runners in the race. To their credit, they worked hard to move up through the pack but their first mile was 15 seconds slower than what they normally run because they couldn’t maneuver past all of the runners.“Then at the 1.2 mile mark, a course marshall directed the run-ners the wrong way on the course. As a result, they had to add an extra 200 meters on the fly at the end. It was crazy. I saw what happened as soon as the runners went off course and was near one of the race officials who immediately made the call to change the course at the end. I called Jeff (Jones) who was at another point on the course and he was able to tell our guys to be prepared to run the extra 200 meters. It was fortuitous that I was where I was next to that offi-cial because there was no way to broadcast to everybody what was going to happen at the end.”“We are still kind of recovering from COVID in terms of our num-bers. Every coach I have talked to says the same thing. A bunch of our runners in the junior and senior classes quit running during the ear-ly part of the pandemic and did not return. We did have a strong turn-out in our freshman class this year, so hopefully the trend is reversing. We had 30 runners on the team this year with only one senior and five juniors, three of whom had never run before. Over half of our team had never run a cross country 5k before this fall. “Jeff and I are optimistic about the team’s future. At regionals, we had two sophomores and three freshmen in our top six boys. Our average time of 17:20 for our five scorers is considerably better than I thought we could run before the season due to our youth. This group has the talent and potential to do some really good things. We also ran five freshmen girls at regionals, so we need to develop them for the future.“Going forward we have sev-eral runners who have decided to compete at the Nike Southeast Re-gional at Wake Med Park in Cary on Nov. 27. There will be runners in several divisions representing about 10 states. It is a pretty cool event and each runner gets some Nike gear. Aside from that event, we are transitioning to indoor track now after a short rest. We do have a few runners who will be doing other sports in the winter, but we should have everybody back for outdoor track in the spring and that should set us up for a good cross country season next fall.” Sulecki, Essic ‘buried’ at state cross country meet By Brian PittsEnterprise Record High expectations always follow Davie wrestling, but the War Eagles are in full reset mode after losing several stalwarts to graduation. There were five substantial losses: Jack Jarvis (39-6 last year at 170/182, four-time state qualifier, state champion in 2021, 138 career wins), Collin Bailey (44-7 at 152, three-time state qualifier, 147 career wins), Lane Hill (39-6 last year at 132/138, 112 career wins), Isaac Webb (28-10 at 160/170, 129 career wins) and Sam Collins (25-10 at 138/145). Contrast that with the fact that Davie has one senior in 2022-23 and only two returners who have achieved 30-plus wins in a season. Yeah, it’s true the tradition-rich War Eagles never lack for talent. New faces will emerge starting Saturday in the Buddy Lowery Invitational at Davie. The bottom line: It will be difficult for Davie to pull off a season for the ages, but that doesn’t mean these are bleak times. The War Eagles will be just fine. But we note that coach Perry Long always puts Davie in as rigorous a schedule as he can. It will take some lumps. “At the beginning of the year, we may struggle,” as-sistant coach Mark McKnight said. “But like we always do, at the end of the year, we’ll be competing. We’ll be Please See Girls - Page B4 Testa, Godbey anchor wrestlers Please See Wrestling - Page B6 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record The leading scorers for last year’s JV girls basketball team are not around. Nadelie Jones is playing varsity; Kaylee Lewis decided not to play. On top of that, the foremost freshman, Bailey Aderhold, made the varsity, leav-ing coach Lamar Russell with just three returners from his successful first year as Davie’s JV coach. Even though there are no prov-en scorers back, Russell says it’s not crazy to think Davie can get its share of wins in 2022-23. “I think we’re going to give opponents some trouble,” he said. “I’m not going to say we’re going to win the conference, but we’re going to give people some trouble.” Lynch to lead JV girls Please See JVs - Page B5 Peyton Spaugh (left) shoots as Somer Johnson defends. - Photo by Brian Pitts Coach Perry Long uses sophomore Joe Wilds to demonstrate. - Photo by Brian Pitts Thomas Essic (left) and Owen Sulecki compete at state.

He throws his head back and laughs when he considers that irony.Mason, 53, spent 28 years with the Winston-Sa-lem Police Department after a couple of years in the U.S. Army, retiring 3½ years ago. Almost immedi-ately, he moved to Beaufort and hung out his shingle: charter boat captain.The owner of 6 Knot Fishing Charters, Mason splits time between Beau-fort and Wallburg, runs an occasional offshore trip on the Sweet Deal, a 44-foot Hatteras sportfisher that belongs to a New Lon-don construction company owner, but spends most of his time on the Southern Breeze, a 34-foot Carolina Express sportfisher built by local boat-building leg-end Buddy Harris that he bought this past spring.He’s crossing his fin-gers that he can build his charter service to the point where he fishes 75 to 100 days a year, trolling up and down the waters around Cape Lookout for Spanish and king mackerel, Atlan-tic bonito, false albacore, dolphin, wahoo, tuna and an occasional billfish. It’s a fitting next chapter in a life of fishing that went from bass to king mackerel and wound up involving every-thing in between.Mason and his buddy, Matt Morgan – anoth-er retired WSPD officer – cranked up Southern Breeze and headed out of Beaufort Inlet toward Cape Lookout, where he had been catching a mixed bag of bluefish, Spanish mack- erel, albacore and bonito for a couple of weeks.Lines in, fish on. That’s pretty much how the day went for his fishing party, which boated six bonito, a handful of bluefish and 15 albacore ranging from 9 to 14 pounds.In short, they got their strings stretched, and that left Mason beaming.Saltwater background“You always have a dream job you want, and mine was to own and run my own boat,” said Mason, who grew up in Kerners-ville and graduated from East Forsyth High School in 1988.“I came down here all the time; my dad has a place in Beaufort, and I could come and go, so when I re-tired in 2019, after I stayed with him for a while, I got my own place.”Mason cut his saltwa-ter teeth fishing with his father on king mackerel tournament circuits 20-some years ago. He got to know Dale McCorkle, who worked at Southern Marine in Salisbury before moving to Beaufort to become a charter captain. One summer, when Mason was visiting Beau-fort, McCorkle was in the midst of 20 straight days of charter fishing. He asked Mason, “You want to help me?” and Mason jumped at the chance, running three charters to give McCorkle some rest. “‘You need to look into this,’” Mason said Mc-Corkle told him.In 2006, Mason sat for all the tests required to get his captain’s license, and he started helping McCorkle, taking advan-tage of his police schedule which bunched three or four days off around 5-day work stretches. He helped McCorkle until he sold his boat, and in 2014, he met Stan Bodsford of New London, who had bought a 44-foot Hatteras docked in Charleston, S.C. Bodsford wanted Mason to run the boat for him, and Mason agreed on one condition – that he move the boat to Atlantic Beach.“After Hatteras and Oregon Inlet, we’re the second-best place on the whole coast to get to the Gulf Stream – 40 miles,” he said.Mason arranged his schedule to be able to run the boat whenever Bods-ford headed to Atlantic Beach and wanted to fish offshore, and he still does, eight years later. He has run offshore charter trips on Bodsford’s boat since he retired, for clients that want 12 hours on the water and a shot at some of the ocean’s biggest fish.But getting his own boat was always a goal.A sweet deal for Southern Breeze“I wanted a boat I could handle by myself, so I didn’t need a (first) mate,” Mason said. “A big sport-fisher requires two people to run it, but a 34-(footer) is manageable for one person to run.”Mason started look-ing last winter. He found Southern Breeze, which has a single Caterpillar 3126 engine that turns 420 horsepower, in Little River, S.C. According to Mason, Harris had built the boat in 2007, kept it a couple of years, donated it to a char-ity in New Bern, where it was purchased by a physi-cian in New Bern. The boat moved to Norfolk, Va., a couple of years later, then to Little River.“I went and looked at the boat, which had been moved to Shallotte, and as soon as I walked up on it, I knew it was exactly what I was looking for,” he said. “I knew I wanted a custom boat with a single engine, because I didn’t need all those extra things, like twin engines, with all the extra maintenance. I knew the charter business is a nick-el-and-time operation; If you take care of one, good, single motor, you can do alright.“I was looking for a Carolina Express type boat, and I knew the only peo-ple who made them were Buddy Harris, and a couple more people around Beau-fort who were somewhat in the charter business.”Mason got the financial end taken care of, thanks to a suggestion from the busi-ness-savvy Bodsford, and in February, he got it home to the Morehead City Yacht Basin. He’s run about two or three trips a week during the 2022 fishing season, in addition to the trips he’s run on Sweet Dream.And now, he’s living his dream.

The combo guard’s season scoring average was 11.9. “She’s gotten a lot better at penetrating,” said Adams, who expects Gentry to heal from the injury in time for the season opener. “She’s worked all summer at being able to penetrate and kick. She’s become more consis-tent with that.”Adams considers the addition of junior Lauren Colamarino a game-chang-er. She played inside for West Forsyth’s varsity as a freshman and sophomore. She moved to Advance in January and decided to transfer to Davie in July. Her family is familiar with Davie; her brother Nathan played basketball for Davie and graduated from Davie in 2014. Lauren almost cer-tainly will be a major part of any success Davie achieves. “Having Lauren trans-fer in is the piece we’ve been missing,” Adams said. “She’s a post player to go with all the guards we’ve had. She’s 5-10 or 5-11. She’s the one who dropped 16 points on us when we lost (60-45 to West last year). She’s the reason we lost. I was super excited (when she transferred). We were able to play in the Blue Chip league with her every Sunday for eight games. The post was our weakness and she helps us tremendously.”Malayka Rankin, a ju-nior and third-year varsity player, is hugely important because of her blue-collar habits. The junior forward is tough as nails. She’s never seen a loose ball she didn’t think had her initials on it. In one game as a soph-omore, Rankin had seven points, eight boards and six steals. In a 70-63 win at Parkland, she amassed 13 points, 10 rebounds and three steals while going 4 of 5 from the floor and 5-5 at the foul line. She was a 4.6 scorer for the season. “She’s coachable, she works hard and she’s al-ways willing to put in the extra effort,” Adams said. “From what we’ve seen this summer to now, she’s become more of a scoring threat. She played on a pret-ty competitive travel team this summer, and that raised her offensive skills a lot.”Junior guard Peyton Spaugh (3.8 ppg) will pester people to death on defense. In a 53-48 win over Mt. Tabor, she put up 10 points, eight steals, five assists and four boards. “She had the most steals for us last year before she went down with an injury and missed (seven games),” Adams said. “She has a lot of control running the point guard position, which means we don’t have to run Kenadi at the point. Now I can put Kenadi at the two to make her more of a scoring Girls .. threat.”Dirks and Oakes will be a major part of Davie’s plans. The senior wings averaged 3 and 2.8 points last year, respectively. Dirks reached double figures twice, and she plays with an excep-tional motor. In a home win over Parkland, Oakes was influential with nine points and nine boards. She was one of the heroes in the road win over Parkland with 11 points and 4-for-4 shooting down the stretch. “Sydney has toughness,” Adams said. “If we want to bang on a girl or frustrate somebody, she’s one that can do that. She’s also doing a lot better job attacking the rim. Sydney has no fear whatsoever. If we want to get somebody in foul trou-ble, we’ll tell Sydney to attack a certain girl. “Keelyn is kind of a sneaky player. A lot of peo-ple overlook her because nobody really scouts her. She’s one of the reasons we won at Parkland. They think she’s a player they can leave open - everybody runs to Somer - but if you leave her she knocks down open shots.”Adams has plenty of pieces to work with, in-cluding sophomore guard Nadelie Jones. She was the JV’s top scorer at 14.1 for eight games. She was pulled up to varsity for the final 10 games and contributed 3.5 points. “Her 3-point shot has become more consistent,” Adams said. “She has a high basketball IQ.”Throw in Bailey Ader-hold and Kaylee “KK” Lynch and Davie is as deep as it’s been in a long time. Aderhold is a fantastic freshman.“Bailey really shocked me (in the offseason),” Ad-ams said. “Obviously she was the leading scorer at Ellis last year, but I didn’t know how she would adjust to playing at the varsity lev-el. This summer I played her up and against the toughest team we played at Liberty - they were a state cham-pionship team - and Bailey dropped 16 points on them. That’s when I was like: ‘OK, she has potential to score (as a varsity freshman).’ When other girls didn’t have the confidence to score in that game, she came off the bench, hit 3s, attacked the rim and took a charge. She proved to me immediately that she’s capable of playing at this level. She’s also a part of a really strong AAU pro-gram with the Winston-Sa-lem Steelers, so she plays against tough competition all the time.”Lynch will be a two-way player between JV and varsity. As a freshman, she was a monster on the glass for the JV. “We’re using her for fifth quarter, so she’ll be with (JV and varsity) every game,” Adams said. “She can out-jump most people and that’s why she’s able to pull down so many rebounds. We’re working on her offensive confidence.”Last year in the CPC, East Forsyth (23-4 overall last year) and Reagan (21-5) tied for first at 12-2, and Reynolds (18-7) was just a game back at 11-3. Davie was next in the eight-team pecking order. While Reagan could fade this year, East and Reynolds are the clear-cut favorites. “East returns everybody except Natalie (Axtell), who shot 3s,” Adams said. “Reynolds is returning ev-erybody. Reagan basically only has the big post player returning. Their point guard transferred to High Point Christian Academy, so they lost their best ball handler.”As for the War Eagles, it’s teed up for them to en-joy the most success since 2015-16, when they finished 16-11 in Dave Ruemenapp’s third and final season as coach. “We should finish in the top three,” Adams said. “East and Reynolds will give us a tough time, but I think we can upset at least one of them.” Malayka Rankin drives against Peyton Spaugh.

She’s also the top returning scorer at 4.7. She is being dual-ros-tered, meaning she’ll dress for varsity games and sweat-ing out JV games. “KK’s been working out with varsity and getting stronger, so I know she’s going to get rebounds and she’s developing a shot,” Russell said. “She could be the leading rebounder and scorer this year.” Tarpley flourished in the last three games as a freshman, scoring 30 points during that span. In one game, she had 13 points, six rebounds and six steals. Croom also peaked toward the end of her freshman sea-son, collecting eight points and 11 rebounds in one game and following that with 10 points in the next game. “They have gotten better since last year,” Russell said. “Carleigh is amazing at softball. She learned the game of basketball last year and she keeps getting better. JVs ... They stepped up big time (in the second half of the season).”Russell has six freshmen. Although all six are raw players, each one is athletic with big upsides. America Stockton is a menacing low post player. “She’s about as tall as KK and she is strong,” he said. “Boy, she’s strong. She accidently hit me the other day when I had the pad on her back and I was trying to move her. She knocked the breath out of me and I loved every second of it. I couldn’t breathe to tell her that, but I was like: ‘Yeah, that’s what I need right there.’ If she makes a move in the post and somebody gets one of those shots from her, I bet not many girls are going to stand beside her to figure out what she’s going to do next. I know I didn’t.”Lanah Kruger has been quite a revelation. “We’ve had eight prac-tices and this was her eighth day of basketball,” he said. “She’s a tall girl and she has improved so much in those eight days that I am excited to see where she’s going to be by the end of the season. I couldn’t imagine playing basketball for the first time and doing some of the things she’s already done.”If Russell can find a few consistent scorers, he could have another fun team. Mad-ison Lewis, Britany Her-nandez, Maegan Purvis and Zariyah Conner are the other freshmen. “Madison is athletic and I’m trying to turn her into a (multi-sport athlete),” he said. “She could get big minutes, maybe at point guard. I think she’ll do well. Britany played travel bas-ketball for coach Adams, so she knows what to expect from us. Maegan is really quick and very coachable. Zariyah is looking good.”Hannah McMillian would be a big help, but she may miss the whole season with a knee injury. Before missing the last six games of 2021-22, she had a 13-point game. She had one game where she pulled down 10 rebounds. In another game, she made four steals. In another game, she blocked three shots. “I don’t know about Han-nah right now,” he said. “She may not be able to play this season. They didn’t clear her (last week) and it’s going to take 4-6 weeks to do that test again. Hannah would be huge for our team.”Sophomore Aubrey Speckin, a late addition to the team, will be a role player. “She hasn’t played since middle school (because of injuries and two surgeries), but she is tall and athletic,” he said. “If she can give me a few minutes off the bench, she will help a lot. If she gets comfortable and plays more, she will be another rebounder along with KK.”Russell has managed to put together a 10-deep ros-ter, 11 if you count McMil-lian. That’s impressive work when you consider a lot of programs either don’t have enough players to form a team or barely have enough. “It seems like every day he tells me he’s got another girl playing,” Adams said. “I’m excited for how he’s building that program. It’s going to be exciting for the next two years.”Nathan Handy was Rus-sell’s assistant last year, but Handy was named the var-sity softball coach and thus dropped basketball. Russell looked around and found 20-year-old Hope Grimes, who helped Forbush achieve staggering things from 2016-17 through 2019-20. During that time, the Fal-cons went 99-18 with a state runner-up finish in 2019. “She knows basketball and she’s going to bring a whole new dynamic to JV basketball,” he said. “I couldn’t think of a better person to replace Nathan and be my assistant. I saw her play at Forbush and I really loved her game. I reached out to her sister because I used to work with her sister. Then Hope called me. This is what I needed.” Framing Lumber Treated Lumber • Hardwoods Plywood • PPG Paints Cabot Stains Sikkens Stains Flooring • Sakrete Plumbing • Electrical Wood Furniture & More!

Davie has two dudes - Hunter Testa and Bry-sen Godbey - in the upper weights. Testa’s numbers the past two years are downright magical, especially when you consider his weight class as a freshman/sopho-more (182). He comes into his junior year with a career record of 62-6, including a 34-3 mark as a sophomore when he captured the re-gional title and finished third in the state. He will be right back at 182 as a junior. “His work ethic,” Kope-tzky said when asked what separates Testa from the rest. “You’re not going to outwork him. He’s also pe-culiar about hitting moves. He pays attention to the fine details. He will run things over and over and over until he’s got it down almost to a science.”After enduring grow-ing pains as a freshman at 220/285, Godbey was a dominant force as a soph-omore, going 40-10 and qualifying for the state at 220. He has dropped down to 195 for his junior year. “We’ve got to have something big out of him,” McKnight said. “He’s filled out nicely,” Kopetzky said. “He’s put on some muscle since last year. He’s more aggressive. You can tell he’s put in work.”At 132, the team’s lone senior, Lawson Hire, looks poised for a breakout year. He carries 50 career wins into the season. “He’s look-ing good,” McKnight said. “He’s a lot stronger than he was, and he worked all summer to get better.”Despite being an un-dersized freshman heavy-weight, Ryder Strickland scratched and clawed and battled to a winning record (16-15). He has competitive fire and one thing is certain from a guy who closed his football season by butting heads with a five-star recruit Raheem Martin, the older brother of the NBA’s Martin twins, was hired into the Appalachian men’s basket-ball program last month, joining head coach Dustin Kerns’ staff as the director of recruiting. Martin is overseeing the program’s recruiting efforts and assisting the coaching staff with selecting and developing student-athletes. Before making this move, he served as the coordinator of student-athlete development at the University of Arkan-sas after spending two years there as a graduate assistant.Raheem graduated from Davie in 2011. His brothers, Caleb and Cody, play for the Miami Heat and the Char-lotte Hornets, respectively. “I would like to thank coach Kerns and the men’s basketball program for this incredible opportunity to work at such an amazing institution,” Martin said. “I am honored to be a part of the Mountaineer family.”Martin joined an organi-zation that has grown and stood out in the Sun Belt Conference since Kerns took the reins prior to the 2018-19 season. Coming off its third-consecutive winning season, App State captured the 2021 Sun Belt Conference championship to earn an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament and is fresh off its second consecutive year of playing in a national postseason tournament.Kerns on Martin: “We are thrilled to add Raheem Martin to our coaching staff.

Reach Potential Customers While They Are Online WithTARGETED DIGITAL MARKETING He is a North Carolina na-tive and has had great expe-riences in basketball. While on the Arkansas coaching staff, he helped the Razor-backs to two straight Elite Eights. He had a successful playing career at Greens-boro College and has built great relationships in this state. Please welcome Ra-heem, his wife Abby and their two children, Sawyer and Ezra.”During his time at Ar-kansas, Martin worked with NBA lottery pick Moses Moody, All-American JD Notae and 2022 NBA draft pick Jaylin Williams. Prior to Arkansas, Martin spent one season as an assistant coach at Greensboro Col-lege (2019-20) and one season as an assistant coach at Richard Bland College (2017-18). During his playing ca-reer, the four-year letterman was named USA South De-fensive Player of the Year following the 2013-2014 season. He finished his ca-reer with 85 blocks, which ranks third on the Pride’s all-time list, and ranked ninth in career steals with 116. Maddox at UNC-AZaharee Maddox, who was Davie’s leading scor-er the past two seasons, is a walk-on guard at UNC-Asheville. The 5-10, 160-pound freshman got a little action in the Bulldogs’ second game of the season, a 94-46 rout of Brevard on Nov. 12. He played two minutes, hit his only shot attempt for two points and made a steal.

I think he’s going to do really well this year. He has a great work ethic. He’s not tall and he’s going to get some 6-2, 6-3 guys that weigh 285 - but now he knows what to do with them.”“He’s definitely im-proved in the past year,” Kopetzky said. “He’s got a shot to be pretty successful this year.”Keep your eye on a trans-fer from Lake Norman. Brett Foster, who wrestled in mid-dle school at North Davie, appears to be a rising star after going 19-3 as a fresh-man. He recorded 11 pins in 16 tries (six of his matches were forfeits). Interestingly enough, his father Brad was a standout for Lowery from 1987-88 through 1989-90. “He’s a good wrestler,” Kopetzky said. “He was one win from making it to the state tournament. He works hard.”After edging out West Forsyth and claiming the conference championship in the spring of 2021, Davie finished second to West last year, finishing 23-10 overall and 6-1 in the league. To de-throne the Titans this winter and become a state contend-er, Davie needs big leaps from guys like Reid Nail, Jerred Alexander and Luke Tehandon - if Tehandon is able to return from injury. “Reid’s probably go-ing to drop below Lawson, maybe to 126,” McKnight said. “We’re looking for big things from him. He’ll be a big 126. “Jerred is going to prob-ably start at 170. He’s tall and long. He’s about 6-3. He had a great football season. He was behind Jack last year and couldn’t break the lineup. He’s going to be a huge 170, so we’re looking for big things out of him.”Kopetzky said of Alexan-der. “He works really hard and he’s gotten a lot better on his feet.” Tehandon went 10-7 as a sophomore at 113, but his season is in jeopardy after undergoing shoulder surgery. “We don’t know if he’ll be back this season or not,” McKnight said. “He would be a large help in the lower weights. They think he can come back in December, but if we push that too early and he gets hurt again, then he’s done. So we don’t know if he’ll come back this year or wait and come back for his senior year.”Davie could have fresh-men at 113 and 220. Braxton Hunter, the likely starter at 113, was virtually an auto-matic pin last year for North Davie. His father (Michael) and brother (Bryson) both wrestled for Lowery. “He’s going to get beat up a little bit at first, but he’ll grow and learn,” McKnight said. “He’ll take his licks, but he’s going to be OK.”Jerred’s brother, fresh-man Jakob Alexander, is a possible starter at 220. “He’s young and he’s going to struggle just like Godbey did (as a freshman) and like everybody does,” McKnight said. “But he learns from his brother and he’s almost as tall as Jerred is and that will help.”Notes: This is Long’s fourth year as head coach. His career record is 66-31, including a 14-3 mark in the Central Piedmont Confer-ence. ... Unless something changes, Davie will forfeit at 106. “We thought we had a couple of guys coming out, but we haven’t had anybody yet,” McKnight said. ... Charlie Frye’s senior season has been ruined by a shoulder injury. He was a lock to start on the offensive line this fall, but he wasn’t able to play a single down in football. He was a three-year starter in wrestling - he won 14 of 20 matches last year at 195/220 - but he had to say goodbye to wrestling as well. “I specialize in small projects!” John Huneycutt, Owner 336-618-2425 huneycuttpainting@gmail.com Interior & Exterior Painting Handyman work, repairs, & carpentry Building new decks & refurbishing existing decks Home upgrades: flooring, tile, backsplash, & countertops Market readies & home improvement projects Pressure washing & basement clean-outs1107 Yadkinville Road (Located near Post Office and Badcock Furniture)(336)751-7949 HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

By Shirley ThorneCounty Line Correspondent County Liners are busy planning for the Thanksgiv-ing holidays and family din-ners and gatherings. With the onset of freezing temps this week, some folks also have Christmas and snow on their minds. Then, those of us who love flowers are busy protecting them from the freezing temps. Be sure to check on elderly neigh-bors on cold days.Members of Society Baptist Church are asked to meet at 9 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 19 to assemble the boxes of Thanksgiving din-ner groceries for families of need in the area.

Church mem-bers invite others for this day of thanksgiving wor-ship and fellowship dinner.Our community extends its deepest sympathy to the family of Priscilla Claire Seamon Dwiggins, who died early Sunday afternoon of last week at Gordon Hos-pice House of Statesville af-ter a brief battle with cancer. The older of two children, she was born in Rowan County in 1950 to the late J.C. and Evelyn Boger Sea-mon of Ridge Road. She attended Society Baptist Church with her family. She also attended Cool Spring High School and in 1965 transferred to Davie Coun-ty High School, where she graduated in 1968.Priscilla married James Clayton "Jim" Dwiggins of Davie in 1968 at Society Baptist. Initially the couple made their home on Ridge Road and later bought a home nearby on US 64 West; where they reared children Johnny, Donna, and C.J. and joined in wor-ship at Society Baptist.In life Priscilla was a licensed beautician and op-erated and owned a beauty shop. She was also a sales representative for Avon Products, had worked in the cafeteria at Cool Spring Elementary, and was retired from Davie County Schools cafeteria management.A service celebrating her life was held Thursday af-ternoon of last week at So-ciety Baptist; where she was a faithful member, choir di-rector, and organizer of the quilt ministry. She was laid to rest in the church cem-etery beside her beloved husband Jim, who died in March 2014.We extend our deepest sympathy to the family of John Reid "Johnny" Towell, who died at home Monday of last week after a period of declining health. The third of five children, he was born in Iredell County in 1946 to the late Lemuel Reid and Veatrice Jones Towell of Davie Academy Road. He attended Jericho Church of Christ with his family. Johnny began school at Cool Spring High School and later transferred to Da-vie County Schools; in 1964 he graduated from Davie High School, where he was a varsity team football play-er for three years. In 1966 he entered the US Navy, served two tours of duty in Vietnam, was awarded the Purple Heart and Silver Star, and was honorably dis-charged in 1975. He contin-ued his military support and relations as a member of the VFW of Advance.Johnny and wife Jean-nie settled on a farm on Stroud Mill Road off NC 901 and enjoyed raising their animals, gardening, and country life. A profes-sional independent truck driver by trade, he also was a dedicated active member of the V-Point Ruritan Club, where he had served as club president and on commit-tees and was a regular cook at the monthly breakfasts.A service celebrating his life was held yesterday (Wednesday) morning at Jericho Church of Christ, where he had been a faithful longtime member.Both the Seamon-Dwig-gins and Towell families have been contributors to our community news through the years. Their support and sharing trea-sured family photos and sto-ries plus news of communi-ty events have been greatly appreciated.Our community sends get-well wishes to Margaret Ann Shew; who was hospi-talized with a broken femur from a fall, had surgery, and is in rehab at Davie Nursing and Rehabilitation Center. Betty Cartner remains at Forsyth Medical Center. Jimmy Cartner remains at Wake Forest Baptist Med-ical Center. Alice Waugh remains in rehab at Davie Nursing and Rehabilitation.Join us in prayer for the Lord's divine healing upon Margaret Ann, Betty, Jim, Alice, and other residents who are having health prob-lems. Pray for the Lord's support and comfort upon the families of Priscilla and Johnny as they deeply miss their loved ones. Remember in prayer the family of John Norris Blackwelder, who died last Friday; he was the son of the late County Line native Thelma Godbey Blackwelder and husband Norris. Tribute to VeteransOur country, state, and community paused Friday to pay tribute to veterans, living and deceased, and to thank them for their military service to our country and for protecting our freedom and safety here and abroad. It was Veterans Day and was celebrated with patriot-ic programs and parades.Originally known as Ar-mistice Day, the day was first celebrated Dec. 11, 1919, a year after the armi-stice ending the fighting of "The Great War" was signed the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918. Today it is commemorated in many countries of the world.In 1938 the US Congress made Nov. 11, known as Armistice Day, a legal holi-day every year. After World War II, the day was changed to honor American veterans of all wars and was called Veterans Day.Under the Uniform Holi-day Bill, Veterans Day was celebrated on various dates from 1971 to 1978. After much public objection due to the historic and patriot-ic importance of the date, Veterans Day was returned to Nov. 11 regardless of the day of week.Our local churches rec-ognized the veterans in at-tendance for their service and thanked them. Folks at Piney Grove AME Zion had a time of silent prayer of thankfulness and safety/protection for our veterans and current troops.Calvary Baptist recog-nized their veterans and pre-sented them with patriotic quilts as shown in our pho-tos. The quilts were pieced and quilted by the Women on Mission of the church. Robert Tucker chose the US Army as a career and is a 20-year retiree. Mike Carl-ton served eight years active duty and retired from the US Army Reserves of Salis-bury in 2000 after entering service in 1977.Salem United Method-ist snapped a photo of their three veterans upon rec-ognition of their service. Leonard Godbey also chose the US Army as a career and is a US Army retiree.Three of our Cool Spring High School veterans from the Class of '60 and the Class of '62 attended the Davie Senior Center lun-cheon honoring veterans last Thursday. They and their wives enjoyed the food and the program.Our County Line com-munity appreciates greatly the service of all veterans. Remembering our country’s veterans We live in a free democracy today due to their military service in our country and abroad. Sadly, the funeral for one of our County Line dedicat-ed veterans was held yes- terday. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family of Johnny Towell, who was active in our community as long as his health permitted.Here's hoping veterans has a restful and happy day.
