Hartman, the incident started in the parking lot of Big Lots off Yadkinville Road, when Keller started closely following a vehicle driven by Robert Vandiver. Keller then maneuvered his vehicle in front of Vandiver’s and did a “brake check,” the sheriff reported.“Both vehicles kept travel-ing in Mocksville down vari-ous streets.”The two got into a verbal argument at Wilkesboro Street and Mumford Drive before Vandiver noticed the suspect reaching for something, so he took off again in his vehicle.The suspect shot into Van-diver’s vehicle on Garner Street near Wandering Lane. The shot, Hartman said, went through the rear window and into the driver’s headrest, which caused its trajectory to change. Deputies located both the shell casing and the bullet. Detectives did a great job identifying Keller as the sus-pect, Hartman said, and when they searched his residence, found the weapon believed to have been used in the shooting. Keller was taken into custody in lieu of a $150,000 bond.Hartman said that informa-tion gained during the investi-gation may lead to additional charges against Keller from at least one other road rage inci-dent.John David Keller By Mike BarnhardtEnterprise Record A Davidson County man is in the hospital after being struck by a county-owned ve-hicle Tuesday afternoon, Jan. 3, on Depot Street in Down-town Mocksville.Davie Sheriff J.D. Hartman said that little information is being released, as the investi-gation is continuing. The sher-iff said results will be turned over to the district attorney's office to see if charges are war-ranted.Hartman said the victim was Wayne Lonnen, who told in-vestigators he drives to nearby towns, walks around and prays for the town.He was crossing Depot Street between the square and Clement Street at about 1:35 p.m. when he was struck, not at a crosswalk, Hartman said, adding that the county vehicle was not traveling very fast be-cause it had just stopped at the square. It was driven by How-ard Wishon.The victim suffered broken ribs as he was hit by the front of the mini-van, and then his head hit the windshield. He was talking to investigators the next day from his hospital room.The N.C. Highway Patrol is helping with the investigation. Pedestrian struck by county vehicle was here to pray for town ble in the parking lot of Har-vest United Church of Davie in Cooleemee (formerly Refuge Community Church) at 1:30 p.m. and proceed to Erwin Temple at 1:45 p.m. Everyone is welcome.

To the editor: I could not let Mr. Willard Jr.’s letter of Jan. 5 go by without a rebuttal. He appears to blame Democrats and President Biden for everything he believes is wrong with our country but offers no specifics just general innuendo, and, apparently he still believes the 2020 election was sto-len.The election totals are as follows: Biden won 81,283,501 popular votes and 306 electoral votes to Trumps 74,223,975 popular votes and 232 electoral votes. Yes, 74m is a big number but 81m is much larger. As to fraud, if Democrats are so smart that they created a way to count more votes for Biden than Trump without effecting any other races on the ballots and without leaving any evidence behind - then maybe he should change his party affiliation. The Jan. 6th hearings were an eye opener about what went on in the the White House both before and after the 2020 elections. This was sworn testimony by people both working for and advising former President Trump during that period. It’s really too bad that a lot of the country failed to watch it. Lastly, I know a lot of Democrats and they are no more devils than any of the Republicans I know. Sandra L. Smith, Advance Jan. 6th hearings an eye opener To the editor:In response to “Democracy is a right,” I hate to cloud this issue with a few uncomfortable but undeniable truths that were toally missed by the writer.Despite the fact that he stated he had a brief statement, it is indicative of the massive amount of false information and innuendo that is rampant.Trump has not been President for over two years. At some point, the Democrats are going to have to stop blam-ing him for Biden’s multiple and horrific failures. There was no bigger racist in the history of the U.S. Senate than Biden. He fought every piece of civil rights legislation that came up. He fought integration in schools. Many of his quotes were legendary, like one turning schools into jungles. He gave a eulogy at a friend’s funeral who had been in the KKK. Biden is a world-class liar. In a previous bid for the presidency, he told so many lies. A full scholar-ship to law school? Nope. Graduating first in his law school class? Nope, he was in the bottom 10. He earned three law degrees? Nope, just one, and he was lucky to get it. He also plagiarized a British politician word for word in two speeches. Because of these outright lies he was forced to drop out of the presidential race by his own party.As far as being anti-LBGTQXYZ, the Republican Party is closely aligned with Christian principles and five pas-sages in the Bible deal with homosexuality and these are very straight forward. It is a sin, period.The Jan. 6 hearings were an obvious sham. It should not have to be pointed out. It went on prime time TV with an extremely biased press hand picked for their hostility to-ward Trump. The real insurrection was the terrible riots in American cities for over two years with BLM and AN-TIFA forming road blocks and dragging innocent people out of their cars and beating them. The riots that began in Portland and Washington State and spread to Kenosha and multiple other cities where both public and private prop-erty was burned and destroyed. Biden and Harris set up bail funds in their own names so the terrorists and arsonists could immediately return to their anarchist destruction.They were not prosecuted to the extent of the Jan. 6 dem-onstrators, some of whom were jailed for over 500 days without due process, just like in communist countries like China, Russia and now America.Pelosi was fond of saying over and over that five people were killed, but only one is directly associated with the demonstration. Most were patriotic Americans protesting what they felt was a highjacked election, which was their right. It was rumored that many of the demonstrators were armed, but only one person was shot. That was an unarmed mother, teacher and veteran exercising her Constitutional right to protest, killed by a Capitol police officer. No other Capitol police officer felt the need to shoot anyone. Noth-ing in the building was burned; some windows were bro-ken and a few hinges bent.The statement that the Republicans were ignoring the Constitution? The Democrats have been openly and loud-ly attacking the First and Second Amendments that they swore to uphold. Our fouding fathers listed the Constitu-tional Amendments in order of importance.The free press has been bought and paid for decades ago. The network and cable news totally cannot be trusted. The best news sources is Skye News Australia, which has an in-depth and totally unbiased section on US news. BBC is a good second choice, but occasionally falls short.The internet can be a valuable sour of information, but needs to be read carefully. The Biden administration is working on misinformation sites so they can tell you want misinformation is.John LevisMocksville What’s on My Plate?By Stephanie Williams DeanI keep seeing both memes and questions pop up on Face-book asking us to reflect on the past year. The questions ask readers,” What’s a lesson you learned last year that you’ll carry into the New Year.” I could write a page – the answers roll easily off the top of my head. Quickly, I sum up many examples. And that’s a good thing because God expects each of us to learn from experience and grow in spiritual wisdom. That’s how we mature as Christians. But then I began to consider just how fast I targeted what I learned about other people – and not myself. Considering you can’t change anyone else and can only change your-self – that’s a useless exercise. So instead of zeroing in on others – I began to ask myself what lesson the experiences had taught me.Interestingly, the answers didn’t come as easily when I applied the question to myself. But this was what was most important – me. My spiritual growth – to consider what I learned about myself in the process. How did each experi-ence help me to see something new about myself I didn’t realize before? How did the interaction help me grow in spiritual wisdom? What about someone else’s behavior made me recognize or learn something about myself? How did each circumstance make me live more Christ- like, walk in His ways, be a better person, grow closer to the Lord, and deepen my faith? And ultimately – how are these realizations about myself going to help me better serve the Lord in the New Year? It’s not about other people and their lives – it’s about my life. It is “me” who needs to change – not other people.This thought leads me to another point about the spiri-tual food I’m being served in the New Year. Of course, I’m interested in other people and what’s on their plates. I’m compassionate – I care deeply for others and their prob-lems. But rather than hear the details about the lives of others – I want to hear about what’s happening in your life. How do you plan to spiritually nourish yourself this year? What goals have you set and how do you plan to meet them? How are you going to grow closer to Christ and gain deeper spiritual wisdom? That’s the kind of food I find nourishing and healthy. In the long run, aren’t these questions, in fact, more beneficial to how we relate to and help one another? So this year, I want to partake in more meaningful dis-cussions. As it relates to others – gossip, judgment, com-ments, and pointless talk – please serve my plate less of that.But, reading, praying, growing, and walking with the Lord – I’ll surely reach for another helping. A New YearBy Linda H. BarnetteFirst of all, I give thanks to God for another year. Even at 81 my health is ok, and I am still on my feet!!2023 will be my first year alone, so that is both different and difficult. When I am in the house, I find myself starting to talk to John. This morning I picked up both his coffee cup and mine when I first went into the kitchen. But I am told that this too will pass.My plan for the new year is to get involved again in ac-tivities that I enjoy and had to give up for both COVID and John’s lengthy illness.I want to continue with my writing of memoirs and my genealogy work. Thanks to the help of several friends, no-tably Barbara Harvel and Marie Craig, my book “The Sto-ry of My Family” was self-published last summer. It was a Christmas gift to my family a few weeks ago, and they were pleased to have it as a keepsake. As with many things, my wish is that my dad and my Grandmother Smith could know about my little book since they were responsible for my interest in family history.My hopes for 2023 are to read more books, write more stories, work on some more family history, participate in a Bible Study, become more active in church, to continue learning to play the handbells, spend more time with fam-ily and friends, to gain 5 pounds, and start back in an ex-ercise program. My wish for all of you is that you have a happy new year and that you are able to do many of the things that you enjoy! Time And YouBy David R. MooreMost observe the start of a new year; however, few re-flect on how the concept of time affects them as an individ-ual. Man has been trying to understand time for thousands of years. The pre-Socratic Greek philosopher Heraclius of Ephesus said, “Everything flows,” which intuitively de-scribes movement and change, which are the basis of real-ity like a flowing river with no two points the same, mean-ing man cannot enter the exact same river twice. When a man enters the river a second time, it is no longer the same river, and the man is also no longer the same person he was when he first entered the river. A contemporary of Hera-clitus was another Greek philosopher, Parmenides of Elea. Parmenides had a different view of time, not based on intu-ition. He claimed change and movement were impossible since the world was one, eternal, and static. What man ex-perienced was only a single moment of the present. Only the memories of past moments gave the illusion of change and movement. A modern analogy of his view is thinking of a filmstrip where every moment is only a frozen image.There were no easy answers regarding the concept of time. Saint Augustine wrote in the 5th century, “What is time? If no one asks me, I know. But if I wish to explain it to him, who asks, I do not know.” But throughout his-tory, most believed the perception of time was intuitive and expressed as an absolute and continuous axis of time which served as the platform for the flow of events (i.e., change and movement) which takes place one after the oth-er. Isaac Newton’s laws of physics strengthened the idea the universe was like a mechanical clock, a system made up of parts, a combination that created new and wonder-ous things, all working in a regular movement, never stop-ping, or deviating. Movements of objects (astrological and smaller) could be explained and predicted based on veloci- It was over before it even started.And well before the first half was over, everyone watch-ing knew it.Georgia was the better team.The college national championship football game was Monday night. It featured what was supposed to be the top two teams in major college football - the University of Georgia and Texas Christian University.The NCAA came a long way to get to the point that two teams in a four-team team playoff go at it for the national championship. Remember the years of those bowl games that got certain teams because of their conference, and you never knew which one would be for the championship? It often turned into a controversial vote as to the best team.Now, that controversial vote is those Top 4 teams to make the playoff. Picking those teams should be hard, and it was.But TCU?It was a feel-good story. A losing team without much promise coming into this season, they proved the pundits wrong. But unfortunately, they’re not yet to the caliber of a Georgia, or an Alabama, or a Tennessee, or some of the other teams in the Southeastern Conference. They’re just not there. Neither is Carolina or N.C. State, for that matter.The ACC had its somewhat recent glory days with Clemson, but the Georgia’s and Alabama’s of the SEC have passed them. Clemson remains strong, they just got surpassed. Florida State is headed in the right direction and feeling some of that bravado it once had, and with the Tigers always on the edge of being a premier team, the ACC has a chance to rise near the top of the college foot-ball world again. But don’t expect the ACC to get to the top. There are roadblocks. Most come from the SEC. Ohio State, Michigan and Penn State fans would argue other-wise; I say those teams are just a scandal away from falling off the charts.I turned the channel Monday night to check the score, just to see if I wanted to stay up and watch an exciting game. It wasn’t even halftime yet. Georgia was ahead 35-7. It seemed like they got a first down on every play. TCU players were obviously dejected. It was a sad sight.Yes, strange things can happen in sports, especially col-lege sports. The best teams can lose, too. I’ll never forget a saying I saw on a football coach’s shirt: “Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.”Georgia is full of talent. And they work hard. - Mike Barnharrdt DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Jan. 12, 2023 - 3 Continued From Page 2velocities and momentum. Man became comfortable in measuring and describing change or movement using time units (i.e., years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds, etc.)A little over a hundred years ago, the concept of time be-ing eternal and unchanging was upended when Albert Ein-stein published his theory of special relativity and later his theory of general relativity. Time was no longer absolute but part of space relative to the observer. Modern physi-cists proved through experiments using atomic clocks that time was relative to the observer. Even more damaging to man’s ego and trusting his intuition was the development of quantum theory, a platform based on wave function (i.e., probability). Within the last few decades, physicists again proved with experimentation related to quantum en-tanglement that time was not absolute and continuous.There was always difficulty in accepting new theories that go against basic intuition. Still, eventually, people reconciled to the rejection of those false beliefs (e.g., the earth is the center of the universe, the earth is flat, and man cannot fly). People have recognized time is relative to the individual. Who has not observed time being slow (e.g., sitting in a classroom watching a clock hand move, wait-ing for Christmas or a birthday, or waiting for a workweek to end) or fast (e.g., vacations, weekends, or seeing kids grow) relative to the outside observer (viewing his own clock)? However, people rationalized that the slowness or fastness in time they experienced was just in their head and the clock of the outside observer was the “true” pas-sage of time because, intuitively, they were more comfort-able with an absolute time. That is a false narrative. Now is the moment to reject that belief and grasp the idea each of us has an individual and unique sense of time. A time relative to each person. Expressions have already been used acknowledging time is unique to the individual (e.g., take all the time you want, your time--not mine, you have an internal clock, your sweet time, time on your hands, your fun time, or your sad time). For those dubious that time is not relative to the individual, ask any older person if time passes more quickly as they get older. So try to accept the new paradigm, get comfortable, and discover life at the rate that belongs solely to you. You will like it. Country StoreBy E. BishopFew places can elicit nostalgia like the good old-fash-ioned country store. As you walk into a Mast General Store in Boone or Lanier Hardware in Lexington today, you are able to get a small glimpse of what it might have been like in days gone by. Country stores would generally be the first business in a new settlement and sometimes the town would take its name from the store itself. These gen-eral stores were a valuable asset to the rural populations of small towns of America.According to “Legends of America” peddlers would bring goods to a beginning settlement and establish them-selves a store if enough, people warranted it. These estab-lishments provided food and necessities that would have otherwise been difficult to come by. Oftentimes, the store housed the post office; the owner might also be the town clerk, justice of the peace or even the undertaker. A wide variety of goods were offered filling the store from floor to ceiling that might include pots and pans, spices, boots and bullets to penny candy. Not only did it provide goods, but it also served as a social and message center for the community. For rural families, going to the country store was a treat. However, in the 1930s, supermarkets began to spring up everywhere; the small general stores could not com-pete and gradually began closing. But, in rural Davie County, we still had several of those small places although not stocked quite like the ones of the past. I can remem-ber my daddy taking me to the store in his first and only truck, a 1947 five -window Chevrolet truck, to probably pick up some of those nasty unfiltered Camel cigarettes he smoked. And, one time, when I was small, but old enough to know better, I stole a piece of candy. When I drive the mile to the end of our road now, I look to the left and see only memories. That old store run by Viola Josey and later bought by my brother, Tom, is only a shell of what it used to be. Unlike places like out West or in Appalachia even to-day, our little farming community had several places to get needed supplies. Not only did we have Josey’s, but just north about four miles was Greasy Corner (it is called that because once upon a time, that intersection had a gas station on each corner). When I was very young, my sis-ters and I would sometimes walk (south) less than a mile through the woods from our house to a little store run by Jake and Ashlee McDaniel. They lived in a huge farm-house across from the store; this is where my sister Mary lives now. When we took that walk, we would visit an elderly woman named Ms. Dot Ford also. That house on 601 where she lived near the river is still standing and has a hauntingly sad story that goes with it.Our parents provided all we needed with the help of Josey’s, Foster’s and Martin Brothers. And there’s noth-ing like being taken to that old country store and getting treated to a 6 1/2-ounce cold Coca-Cola in the bottle, and maybe a piece of penny candy. By Betty Etchison WestFor the Enterprise There is much more in-formation available about the mother of the sixth Pres-ident of the United States, John Quincy Adams, than there is about any of the first five. That is because the mother of John Quin-cy Adams was not only the mother of a president, but also the wife of a President of the United States. John Quincy Adams’ mother was the wife of the second President, John Ad-ams, and therefore there has been much more research done concerning that lady, Abigail Adams.The ancestors of Abigail Smith, who married John Adams and became the mother of John Quincy Ad-ams, were members of the prominent New England family, the Quincy family. That no doubt is how she came to name her oldest son, John Quincy. Abigail was born in 1744. At that time, it was believed that girls did not need an aca-demic education. Abigail did receive some academ-ic education at home. She was bright and learned to read. She read everything she could find and became a self-educated woman. Not only could she read, but she could write because many letters still exist that she wrote to her husband.In 1764 Abigail Smith and Harvard-educated young lawyer John Adams were married. They lived in a saltbox style house on their farm in Braintree, Mass. During the first 10 years of their marriage, the Adams had five children, three sons and two daugh-ters. John Adams was a cir-cuit judge who was often away from home. Abigail, alone, cared for her chil-dren and managed the small farm while he husband was a traveling judge, and, lat-er, for long periods of time when John was serving his country. Adams was a del-egate to the Continental Congress, an envoy abroad, and he served as Vice Pres-ident and President of the United States. Abigail did spend a few months living in the White House while John Adams was President. Abigail is characterized as a strong, capable lady, who seemed to be able to han-dle all responsibilities. She was different from most women who lived during that period in that she was interested in governmental affairs and politics. Today she would probably be called a political activist.When her husband was involved in developing the new constitution for the United States or later when he worked on legislation, Abigail wrote to him and said, “Don’t forget the la-dies.” There is no evidence that John acted on the ad-vice that she offered in her letters, but she gave it free-ly. The letters do indicate that John wanted and ap-preciated Abigail’s opinion.Abigail was able to join her husband when he was on an European assignment and that was an education within itself for Abigail. However, much of the time, Abigail was in Braintree, which is now called Quin-cy, managing family and farm affairs. She was there alone with her children when the fighting during the Revolutionary War came close enough to her home that she could hear booms of the cannons, but that did not seem to fright-en her.John Quincy seemed to have a personality much like that of his father. His brilliant father could be brusque and abrasive. John Quincy’s mother seemed to be a lovely, charming lady, who at times helped smooth over the difficulties created by her husband’s augmentative personality. John Quincy was capable, but not always likeable. Like his father, he was not re-elected after he had served one term as presi-dent which may have been the result of his brusque personality. John Quincy was later elected to repre-sent his district in the Unit-ed States House of Repre-sentative. He was stricken while on the floor of the House, was moved to an-other room, and died there in the capital.•The mother of Andrew Jackson of the seventh Pres-ident of the United States, Elizabeth Hutchinson Jack-son, was born in Ireland. She was born in 1730, and, about 1761, married Andrew Jackson Sr. They immigrated to America in 1765. The Jacksons bought 200 acres of land near Wax-haw, which is near the pres-ent city of Charlotte. Trag-edy hit the family in 1767. Andrew Jackson Sr. died unexpectedly at age 29. His death occurred three weeks before Andrew Jack-son Jr. was born. Elizabeth Jackson moved in with her sister and there she raised her sons. She worked hard caring for both her children and her sister’s family.When the Revolution-ary War reached Waxhaw, Andrew and his brothers joined the patriots. Both were taken prisoners. Their mother got them released in a prisoner transfer. They got back home, but, Rob-ert, Andrew’s brother died shortly thereafter. It was a long time before Andrew, who was only 13 years old, regained his strength. After her son, Robert Jack-son, died, Andrew’s moth-er went to nurse prisoners who were being held on a prison ship in the Charles-ton Harbor. Elizabeth con-tacted the disease that many of the prisoners had—chol-era. She died in 1781, and it was believed that she was buried in Charleston. Later, Andrew said that he wanted to find her bones and bury them beside his father at the Old Waxhaw Presbyterian Church Cem-etery, but he was never able to do that. All he ever got that belonged to his mother was a small pile of clothes. Elizabeth Hutchinson Jack-son was a great patriot who did all she could to help her family and her country be-fore she died.At age 14, Andrew Jack- son Jr. became an orphan. He lived with relatives af-ter that but was deprived of the love of a parent which probably had a great ef-fect on him. As he grew up, Andrew seemed to be hot-tempered, but he also had a romantic side as was indicated by his great love for his wife, Rachel. That trait may have been gained from his mother who gave her all to care for her family and for others in need.•There is little informa-tion available about the mother of the eighth Pres-ident of the United States, Martin Van Buren. We do know that Martin’s Moth-er, Maria Hoes Van Buren, was of Dutch descendent as was his father, Abraham Van Buren. Maria Hoes Van Alen was a widow with three children when she married Martin’s father. Maria and Abraham had five sons, so all together, there were eight children in the family - three Van Alen children and five Van Buren children. Martin Van Buren’s Mother died when he was about 6 years old so her influence on her son was limited to his earliest years. Both of Van Buren’s parents were fifth genera-tion residents of the Prov-ince of New York and all of their ancestors were of Dutch ancestry. Dutch was the language that was spo-ken in Martin Van Buren’s home as he grew up and also the language which was Martin and his wife spoke in their home after they were married. Mar-tin Van Buren’s wife, died in 1818 when she was 35. After his wife died, Van Buren never spoke of her again, not even in his auto-biography. As Martin Van Buren grew up, he spent a great deal of time in his father’s tavern which on the road between New York City and the capitol of Alba-ny where politicians often stopped for a drink and to discuss politics. That seemed to be the place that influenced Martin most be-cause early on he got inter-ested in listening to those tavern customers discuss politics. Martin’s Moth-er’s influence was of rather short duration since he was young when she died, but he was greatly influenced by the political discussion to which he was exposed.

Richard Keith TutterowRev. Richard Keith Tutterow, 87, of Newland, died peacefully at his home the morning of Monday, Dec. 2, 2022. Keith was born on Dec. 16, 1935 in the Center Commu-nity near Mocksville to the late Henry Wilson “Bo” Tut-terow and Ruth Jarvis Tutterow. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by: his broth-ers, Henry Wilson Tutterow Jr., and Junie Martin Tutterow. His family members who re-main to honor his memory are: his wife, Pat Tutterow; son, Kirk Tutterow and spouse Cheryl Skinner; son, Kevin Tutterow; daughter, Kendra Tutterow Sisk; granddaughters, Ellen Tutterow and Emmaline Sisk; and sister, Harriet Tutterow Jennings. Rev. Tutterow spent his child-hood first in the Center Community and then in Dukeville, N.C. (near Spencer) where his father worked at Duke Pow-er’s Buck Steam Station Power Plant. The family moved back to Center for Keith’s senior year at Mocksville High School. Following graduation in 1953, Keith enlisted in the Army, where he served two years in the 82nd Airborne Division as a paratrooper. He later enrolled at Appalachian State Teachers College in Boone along with his brother Junie. During that time, the brothers worked at Crossnore School Inc. as dorm assistants under the guidance of their uncle, Glenn “Pop” Jarvis, who was a dorm parent and the principal at Crossnore Elementary School. Keith’s initial plan was to graduate from Appalachian and become a teacher. God, however, had other plans, and began to call Keith to ordained ministry in the United Methodist Church. As part of the ordination process, he transferred to Emory & Henry College in Abingdon, Va. in the summer of 1959, and was assigned to serve six Unit-ed Methodist churches in Ashe County, where he met his future wife, Patricia Graybeal, who attended Warrensville United Methodist Church. Keith graduated from Emory & Henry in May 1961. Pat and Keith were married on June 25, 1961, and then began married life together as students at Drew University in Madison, N.J., where in May 1964, Pat finished her Bachelor of Arts degree in English and Keith finished his Master of Divinity degree. He later earned a Master of Education Administration degree from Appalachian State University in 1976. Following graduation from Drew University, Pat and Keith moved to Newland, where Keith started his first full-time United Methodist ministry appointment serving the five churches of the Elk Park-Newland Charge. Their three children were born during this time. Keith served the churches on the charge through June 1971, at which time God’s call on his life shifted. He stepped aside from min-istry for a time and began working for the Avery County School system, first for one year as an Assistant Principal at Avery County High School, then 10 years at Elk Park Elementary School, and finally for 13 years at the Avery Middle School until his school retirement in December 1995. He also returned to part-time ministry in 1977, serving Banner Elk United Methodist Church along with Liberty UMC and Piney Grove UMC in Watauga County for 14 years. He then served as the Avery Parish Associ-ate Pastor for five years, and then the Altamont & Jonas Ridge United Methodist Churches for six years. He retired from ministry in the United Methodist Church in 2002, but came back into ministry in 2007 to serve six more years at Pisgah United Methodist Church. Keith’s interests included playing ball with his chil-dren, drawing and painting, refinishing furniture and mak-ing picture frames, working in his Christmas tree fields, spending time with his granddaughters building castles in The Land of Grand and making mudpies on The Bank of the creek, and walking through life hand-in-hand with his beloved wife of 61 years, Pat. Rev. Keith Tutterow’s roots are in the red clay soil of the North Carolina Piedmont, but his spiritual ground is found in the dark soil of the North Carolina High Country. He was a lifelong learner and spiritual seeker who touched many lives with his faith, his example, his spiritual leader-ship, and his friendship. His family, and especially Pat, are grateful to the many people who made his last few years comfortable, including their many friends who were al-ways available to help with transportation and other needs, the people from Kindred Home Health, Hospice and Pal-liative Care of Blue Ridge, and most importantly Janet Whittington. Rev. Tutterow’s Memorial Service was held at Boone United Methodist Church on Friday, Jan. 6 at 2 p.m. The family received friends following the service. Memorial gifts may be made to: Reaching Avery Min-istry” (RAM’s Rack) at PO Box 234, Newland, NC 28657; or the Faith Promise Mission Fund at Boone United Meth-odist Church, 471 New Market Blvd, Boone NC 28607.

Waiting for a new year to roll around isn’t necessary – but it’s a prime time to push the reset button. Among improvements to our lives – one focus is optimal health. We improve our overall well-being by adding more healing foods to our diet. These help calm inflammation – the body’s response to illness.A beneficial change is a refocus on food choices and adding more plant-based foods like green vegetables – broccoli, arugula, spinach, and kale. Eggs, poultry, berries, nuts, seeds, gin-ger, honey, garlic, and parsley are other favorable choices. Another good idea is to stabilize blood sugars by eating more protein-rich foods like salmon and other fish. Beans, lentils, peas, and quinoa provide protein and good options for vegetarians. But there are pros and cons to any food relevant to your personal health status. The point is to reset and renew. So try to set a few personal goals and strive to meet your expecta-tion – and no one else's. You don’t need to fill the kitchen sink with too many changes at once – just pick one and start there. Then as the new habit becomes consistent – add another. Before long, you’ll be the picture of healthy eating. This a recipe column and not a health advisory – I’m a nurse and not a doctor or dietician. What I suggest might not pass muster – or cut the mustard, so to speak. Always do your research and check with your doctor about your specific condition and best food choices for healing. On a side note, the phrase “pass muster” refers to lining up for a military inspection – and hopefully, you meet the required standard and pass muster. “Cutting the mustard” – that’s the same as passing muster – you’re meeting an expectation. But when you hear someone say something doesn’t “pass the mustard” – that’s known as an eggcorn. An eggcorn is an incorrect phrase formed when someone hears and repeats the wrong words. Today’s recipes include a savory lentil loaf that cuts the mustard when served with delicious mustard gravy. The sauce calls for you to make a request as in please “pass the mustard” – and will be used in correct context.Also included are tasty selections that help you begin to incorporate a few healing foods. Healthy foods are best eaten whole – but start by selecting new foods as you be-gin to work toward better health. Think baby steps – small bites of the apple – you don’t have to eat the entire fruit. But you’ll be one step closer to being a new, changed you – think reset and renewal. Last week we talked about the obstacles in our lives – and how we can get through anything by holding on to our faith in God. Among many lessons in Joshua, another is of a crossing over – a changed people. A select group of people had a choice to obey God, and no other gods – and to remove all idols from their lives. Joshua called the people to turn away from priorities that got in the way of worshipping God. Just as we commit to better health – we must also continue to renew our commitment to obey Him above all authority and to worship only Him. He will then give us all we need to make better choices and overcome temptations. In the New Year – I raise my glass – it’s time for a toast – to healthy living! “May you live for as long as you want, and never want for as long as you live!” (Abbot and Costello) LENTIL LOAF WITH GRAVYExtra virgin olive oil1 chopped onion3 minced cloves garlic½ cup chopped red bell pepper½ cup chopped celery2 cups cooked lentils1 cup cooked white rice½ cup bread crumbs1 tsp. each thyme, oregano2 beaten eggs¼ cup whole milkSalt and pepper to taste2 tsp.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Jan. 12, 2023 - B1Sports By Brian PittsEnterprise Record When wrestling coach Perry Long studied the matchups before Davie locked up with Reagan, he saw several weight classes that he figured Davie would have to fight for. He expected some drama in the middle weights. Good thing for Davie, Long fig-ured wrong. The War Eagles rose to every moment, Reagan’s top dogs imploded and Davie smashed By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Davie’s JV girls basketball team has turned a corner, its profile completely flipping after 37-14 and 47-31 wins last week in the Central Piedmont Conference. “We control our own destiny in the conference now,” coach Lamar Russell said. “If we want to win the conference, we have to win out.”The War Eagles annihilated Mt. Tabor, 37-14, at home on Jan. 3. Despite playing their first game in 13 days, they posted their larg-est victory since last year’s 67-2 cakewalk over Parkland. Davie had all the points it would need by the opening moments of the second quarter. Kaylee Lynch, Britany Hernandez and America Stockton got Davie rolling to a 14-4 lead in the first quarter, and Tabor never recovered. Hernandez (12 points, four steals) achieved double-figure points for the seventh time in 10 games. Lynch had nine points and 13 rebounds. Madison Lewis had six points and five rebounds. The other points came from Stockton (three), Tasia Tarpley (two), Mae-gan Purvis (two), Aubrey Speckin By Brian PittsEnterprise Record West Forsyth’s varsity boys basketball team was bigger and stronger than Davie at four of five positions (big Jackson Powers was the exception), but coach Josh Pittman has taught his boys to compete with grit and passion and to get the job done no matter the odds. And they nearly did in Clem-mons on Friday. They gave the Titans all they could handle. They were poised to win when Powers hit his fourth consecutive 3-point-er, but the final seconds were absolutely heartbreaking as West edged Davie, 63-59. Although the scene was somber on the visitors’ side, Pittman saw a ray of sunshine amid the darkness of the losing locker room. He has no doubt that something special is brewing. “If we continue to work hard in practice, we’ll continue to get better,” he said after Davie (11-4 overall) fell to 1-4 in the Central Piedmont Conference. “The fu-ture at Davie looks real bright. I told them I’m happy and proud of the reaction. At halftime I told them we can lose this game and I’m going to sleep good tonight because of the way we acted and we played well. That’s all I wanted to see, especially after (the Mt. Tabor game).” JV girls aiming high (two) and Carleigh Croom (one). “Britany silently gets dou-ble-digit points (almost) every game,” Russell said in amazement. But the player who had Rus-sell raving in the postgame was Stockton, the freshman who is a year removed from South Davie. “America absolutely showed out this game,” he said. “She didn’t have a lot of points, but she went to the hole aggressively. She did things that I’ve been trying to get her to do, like be more aggressive around the rim and shoot her shot. That’s big because next year I’m going to need her to replace KK (Lynch). That’s some big shoes to fill, but I think America can do it. She’s always aggressive in practice. She had a block that you could hear all around the gym. That got our girls pumped up and ready to play.”Davie 47, WF 31Davie faced an inspired oppo-nent on the road Jan. 6, and there were anxious moments in the first half as the Titans tried to add to their perfect CPC record. “Last year we got beat pretty bad at West Forsyth (57-37), and I was worried,” Russell said. The War Eagles were down 19-18 at halftime, but they never rattled. Hernandez delivered seven points in the third. Croom knocked in four. Tarpley and Stockton nailed 3s as Davie used a 19-7 spree to jump ahead 37-26. Davie (5-6, 3-2 CPC) kept it going in the fourth, resulting in its third straight win. “I had a sick feeling, but after the game started rolling, I felt like we got more and more confident in what we’re doing,” Russell said. “At halftime I said: ‘Here’s the time for you to be confident and do your thing.’ I teach two things: defense and fun. We played solid defense, and the third quarter made me feel real good.”The last possession of the third epitomized Davie’s second-half fun. “We made 10 passes in 31 seconds, got the ball to America at the 3-point line and she hit a 3 at the buzzer,” he said. “That right there made me feel like I was on top of the world. That was the most amazing thing I’ve seen out of these girls all year.”The 16-point win probably doesn’t happen without Hernan-dez’s season-high 17 points, her Please See High - Page B5 Wrestlers rack up CPC pins Reagan 66-18 in Pfafftown on Jan. 4. Earlier in the evening, Davie torched East Forsyth 72-4. Braxton Hunter, Luke Tehandon, Reid Nail, Lawson Hire, Luke Miller, Elliott Gould, Jamarius Pelote, Dylan Miller, Hunter Testa and Brysen Godbey were responsible for 10 pins, East forfeited two matches and Davie took 12 of 13 weight classes. The shine was gone from Da-vie’s record after a 1-3 showing in the Newton-Conover Duals, but Davie regained its mojo in the first two Central Piedmont Conference matches. “I have already thrown this young team in some dogfights,” Long said. “We’ve been in the heat.”Long was braced for several close battles against Reagan. The 48-point margin was a pleasant surprise. Please See Pins - Page B6 Three nights earlier at home, Davie was blown out 70-30 by the first-place Spartans (11-1, 4-0 CPC). You knew it could get out of hand based on results against one common opponent in particular. Tabor steamrolled Reynolds 72-20; Davie needed a spirited effort to hold off Reynolds 64-58. Davie entered with a six-game winning streak, but after a few minutes, it was clear the War Eagles were going to offer little resistance. Only five Davie players scratched, with only one in double figures. Coleman Lawhon had 10 points. Powers, Ethan Ratledge and Ian Koontz had six, and Brad-dock Coleman two. After falling on their face against Tabor, the War Eagles were still on their heels at the start of the West Forsyth game. Pittman called timeout at the 6:20 mark of the first quarter with his team down 7-0. But Davie rebounded from the miserable start brilliantly. A 16-0 run followed Pittman’s timeout, with Powers putting in half of those points, and the slugfest was on. Davie had a 23-12 lead before West responded with a 13-4 surge. When the dust cleared at halftime, it was 27-25 in favor of scrappy Davie, which got eight points from Lawhon, Powers and Ratledge, as well as 7-of-8 foul shooting. “I said: ‘Trust the offense and A heartbreaker in Clemmons for boys Please See Boys - Page B4 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Davie’s varsity girls basketball team kept the good times rolling on Jan. 6. The War Eagles marched into Clemmons and beat West Forsyth 50-35, giving them seven wins in eight games and a three-game winning streak in the Central Piedmont Conference. It’s the finest eight-game stretch since 2014-15. “I was very proud of how they performed,” coach Lindsey Adams said. “I think our girls outplayed them, were super physical and executed the game plan very well.”Davie rode a roaring start to the second win over West in 18 tries. It raced to a 10-2 lead by getting By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Kenadi Gentry laid the foun-dation in the first half, Somer Johnson became the savior in the fourth quarter and the Davie varsi-ty girls basketball team pulled out a defensive struggle over visiting Mt. Tabor on Jan. 3. It was a fascinating 36-31 result because the War Eagles survived despite 21-percent shooting from the floor, because 36 points in a game had spelled defeat every time in the past 15 years. The War Eagles were averaging 50.6 points before hosting Tabor, and they had scored 50-plus in every win this season. On the flip side, they had lost 106 straight when scoring 36 Varsity girls finish week with two wins Gentry scores 20 in win at West Johnson provides lift buckets from Somer Johnson, Pey-ton Spaugh and Malayka Rankin, who twice cut to the hoop and twice scored on passes from Kena-di Gentry and Lauren Colamarino. The margin swelled to 19-6. Spaugh picked a ball handler’s pocket and took off for a layup. Then Spaugh hit a 3. Davie had the 13-point lead when Rankin hit a pair of free throws. Davie took a 23-12 lead to half-time behind Spaugh’s eight steals and 2-for-2 shooting and Rankin’s seven steals. “That’s our bread and butter,” Adams said of the massive number of takeaways. “If you don’t play defense, you are not playing.”In the third quarter, the War Eagles went 0 for 9 on two-point shots. They were able to maintain a working margin because of their stout defense and because of their confident 3-point shooting. Gentry hit a 3 as she was fouled, and she completed a four-point play at the line. Johnson’s 3 inter-rupted West’s 11-4 run and stopped Davie’s field-goal drought (0 for 10). And Gentry’s trifecta restored a 33-23 lead. But the Titans (7-7, 2-3 CPC) had enough game to draw within 33-26. “I told them: ‘They’re at home, it’s a rival game and they want to beat you. Expect them to come out strong (in the second half),’” Adams said. or less. This was the first such win in 15 years, going back to a 36-23 win over North Rowan during the 2007-08 season. Kellie Brown car-ried Davie that day with 14 points. But numbers from the past add-ed up to nothing on this day. Davie missed 43 of 55 shot attempts, but it atoned by turning in another excellent defensive performance. But so did the Spartans, who achieved a five-point lead on three occasions. Gentry carried Davie early. Her two 3-pointers provided a 6-2 lead, one of them coming from NBA range. She hit two of her first three shots, while her teammates were going 0 for 7.

The temperature dropped 20 degrees in an hour or two, and we were treated to a bitterly cold, if not white, Christmas.I immediately remem-bered dozens of stories I’ve heard over the years from waterfowl hunters describ-ing similar weather situa-tions. They were usually associated with some of the best duck- and goose-hunt-ing days afield, with the approaching cold weath-er driving thousands and thousands of birds down from the north, a migration that put them on ponds, riv-ers and backwaters filled with lucky hunters who recognized the opportunity.I remember a big cold front late in duck season several years ago that had hundreds of ducks circling high over the Davie County impoundment I was hunt-ing. The only problem? The cold front was so strong, it had frozen over the im-poundment, and despite my son’s efforts at breaking the ice, those ducks just kept circling and circling, never finding a wet place to drop in. But that was just bad luck under perfect circum-stances.At the same time I was thinking about cold fronts and duck hunts, I had a terrible thought. The cold front was just the kind of thing that sends chills down the spines of saltwater fish-ermen. When the mercury crashes, often the speck-led trout population fol-lows suit. A sudden, 10- to 15-degree drop in the win-ter water temperature can result in what biologists like to call cold-stun kills, and speckled trout are the primary victims. They can-not function in water tem-peratures in the mid-40s or lower, and if the tempera-ture drops quickly into that range, they can’t escape their normal winter haunts and find warmer, deeper water in time. Many will be stunned, die and float to the surface.North Carolina hasn’t had a bad cold-stun kill on speckled trout in years, February 2018 to be exact, and that one wasn’t nearly as widespread as others in the preceding decade, but it wiped out a good number of specks. No cold-stun events since that time, almost five years, have allowed for an explosion in North Caroli-na’s speckled trout popu-lation, most noticeable on the upper end, size-wise. In 2022, North Carolina boasted a new state-record speckled trout and another monster that appears likely to become the world-record speckled trout for a female angler – plus plenty of oth-er big fish. In past years, cold-stun events have resulted in the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries doing things like closing the season on trout for several months to try and let the remnant survive long enough to spawn. A series of cold-stuns fac-tored into the lowering of the daily creel limit to its current, pitiful level of four.A day or so before the bone-chilling cold arrived, NCDMF asked fishermen to report cold-stun kills. Bi-ologists are up and running this week, trying to get a grip on how bad a Christ-mas present fishermen real-ly received.•Because of a family member’s health issue, I am missing the Raleigh Bass and Saltwater Fishing Expo for the first time in more than 15 years. The show is the finest in the Carolinas, bar none, running from 9 a.m.-7 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 13, and Saturday, Jan. 14, and 10 a.m.-5 p.m.on Sunday, Jan. 15, on the N.C. State Fair-grounds.The show annually kicks off the fishing season for saltwater and freshwa-ter anglers alike; it’s usual-ly the first place we can see the newest in fishing tackle and boats – loads of both – basically in two buildings: the Exhibition Building and Jim Graham Building.Bass pros on hand to give seminars include South Carolina’s Davy Hite, one of only two bass pros to win the Bassmas-ter Classic, BASS Angler of the Year and FLW Tour Championship, Alabama’s Timmy Horton, and Ran-dy Howell, the Lake Gas-ton native and Bassmaster Classic champion who now lives in Alabama.Crappie experts Whit-ey Outlaw, Matthew Out-law and Shane Walser will give seminars, along with catfish specialists Timothy London and Elsten Perez, and on the saltwater side, there’s kayak wizard Jer-ry Dilsaver and guides Jot Owens, Tanner Lynk, Noah Lynk and Bobby Brewer.With the Central Caroli-na Boat and Fishing Show missing from the Greens-boro Coliseum’s schedule this year, the Raleigh show will be about the only big fishing show for North Car-olina anglers. A handful of moderate winters have allowed North Carolina anglers to catch plenty of speck- led trout, and quite a few big ones, like this 24- inch beauty caught by Lumberton native Jeff Burleson at Little River Inlet on the North Car- olina/South Carolina border.

Chaffin earns MVP award in Carolina Bowl B4 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Jan. 12, 2023 By Brian PittsEnterprise Record Davie’s JV boys basket-ball team glimpsed a ray of sunlight when it hosted Mt. Tabor. Davie buried West Forsyth to end the first losing streak since January of 2021. The War Eagles did not prevail when they played their first game in 13 days by hosting Tabor on Jan. 3 - the Spartans pulled out a 66-55 decision - but the silver lining was this: They managed to play a pinball game against the toughest team in the Central Pied-mont Conference. The War Eagles traded punches most of the way. They took a 27-24 lead to halftime by scoring 17 second-quarter points that erased Tabor’s 15-10 lead. Elliott Erlandsson, Adam Brown and Ethan Driver did all the scoring during that hot stretch. Erlandsson continued to produce in the third, when Tabor regained momentum and built a 44-39 lead. Tabor has a heckuva squad and that showed as it pulled away with a 22-point fourth. Erlandsson was obvious-ly the star of the day with 25 points and 8 rebounds. Driv-er had 11 points and 3 steals. Thomas Essic showed his all-around skills by scoring 8 points with 6 rebounds, 4 steals and 3 assists. Brown had six6points. Cameron Owens blended 5 points with 8 assists. Davie 50, WF 37Thanks to a dominant first quarter in Clemmons on Jan. 6, Davie stopped its losing streak at three even though it finished with its second-lowest point total of the season. Owens led the way during a first quarter that saw Davie burst to a 12-4 lead. Davie never knocked West completely out, but a win on West’s home floor was nothing to sneeze at. “I thought they played pretty well,” varsity coach Josh Pittman said. “I like the way the guards were play-ing. I like the way they were rebounding. They stepped up against a pretty good team.”Erlandsson (14) and Driver (13) hit double fig-ures as Davie improved to 8-4 overall and 2-3 in the CPC. Five more contributed points: Owens 9, Brown 7, Essic 3, Isaac Swisher 2, Brady Vallance 2. Pittman liked what he saw from this group on Day 1. Nothing has changed in that regard. Continued From Page B1trust your teammates and we’ll be fine. Keep moving the ball and they’re going to break down,’” Pittman said. The Titans’ entire offense was based on shooting the 3 effectively. They only made three triples in the first half, but they nailed three quick ones in the third, resulting in a 43-34 deficit for Davie. But Coleman has become a consistent X factor, and he contributed important plays each time his number was called off the bench. The sophomore guard made New York City drives to the hole and scored through contact. A 12-3 run erased West’s lead and forced a tie at 51. “Braddock is not afraid of the moment,” Pittman said for not the first time. “He’s going to shine some-times, and sometimes he’s going to make mistakes.”During that 12-3 up-rising, Ian Koontz scored inside (“Ian came in and played well off the bench,” Pittman said.), Coleman sank a short jumper and Rat-ledge converted in the paint. Then came back-to-back 3s from Powers, who was dazzling in the second half. When Powers wasn’t drilling 3s, he was over-powering his man inside, including a spin move and left-hand finish that preced- ed a Ratledge stickback that put Davie in front 56-53. Powers and Ratledge both used the pump fake to wrong-foot defenders. Ratledge would back his man down until he had a point-blank shot. “We work on it every single day,” Pittman said. “When you’re playing against athletic kids that jump out of the gym, they’re going to try to block every shot. When you’re funda-mentally sound, use your fakes and you’ll get what-ever you want every time.”Up by one with the ball, Lawhon and Powers execut-ed a screen-and-roll, with Powers hitting the 3 that made it 59-55. West, though, wouldn’t go away. Its fifth 3 of the half cut Davie’s lead back to one. The next Davie posses-sion began at 2:25. The War Eagles chewed nearly a min-ute off the clock, but they were called for a charging foul at 1:27 and West hit a tying free throw at :43. Davie still had the upper hand, but its 3 wouldn’t fall. A War Eagle had his hands on the rebound under the basket, but the ball squirted loose. West grabbed it and threw long for a breakaway layup. Down 61-59, Pittman called time at :11 to set up one last play.The War Eagles turned it over before they could get a shot off, West got an-other run-out right before the buzzer and the home students stormed the floor. Davie had come as close as a team can get without winning. It spoiled a truly great performance by Pow-ers, who hit five of Davie’s six 3s and recorded his fourth 20-point game. He scored 22 by hitting 8 of 13 field goals, including 5 of 7 3s. He put in 14 of Davie’s last 30 points, and he snatched seven rebounds. “My goal is to shoot the best shot with our feet set,” Pittman said. “I don’t care if it’s a 2 or a 3.”Ratledge was tough as nails in the paint, scoring a season-high 14 on 6-of-9 shooting. He also had five boards and two assists. “When we do our one-on-one drills in practice, I tell them when you’re pa-tient, use your body and take your time, you’re going to get a bucket,” Pittman said. “I told Ethan: ‘They can’t guard you because you’re a lefty and you’re strong.’” Notes: Lawhon (11 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists) and Coleman (eight points) had strong games. Coleman hit 3 of 5 shots and both of his free throws. Koontz had four points and two blocks, and Hayden Williams had three steals. ... Davie shot 54 percent in the second half (13-24). ... Although the Titans (7-6, 3-2) had lost 10 of 11 and four straight to Davie, they had to be com-forted by a 10-point loss to Tabor. Tabor beat West by 20 in the first meeting. “A lot of the guys the JV plays against are football players, and our guys held their own and played well,” he said. “We just have to continue to get better and continue to develop more skill, especially with our bigs, because Swisher, Er-landsson and some of those guys will definitely be play-ing varsity next year.” JV boys bring home win from West Forsyth Boys ... The North Davie boys were missing No. 1 scorer Edarius Oliver, and the Wildcats suffered against Phoenix on Jan. 5, losing 54-29. North, playing its first game in 21 days, stumbled to 5-3 after entering the break with a four-game win-ning streak. The game was essentially over after the first quarter as the Phoenix broke out to a 29-8 lead. “They took us to the woodshed, but our kids never quit,” coach Trevor Gooch said. “We must work on closing out on 3-point jumpers and contesting shots.”Blake French recorded his third double-double with 10 points and 15 rebounds. Carter Cornett was next with nine points. Ty Greene had five, Tannyr Carrier three and Mack Ridenhour two. “Blake and Carter both played hard in the post,” Gooch said.

DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Jan. 12, 2023 - B5 Continued From Page 1fourth straight in double figures. Lynch was a beast with 10 points and 12 re-bounds. That makes 11 straight games with 10-plus rebounds for KK. Stockton had seven points and six rebounds. Tarpley had four points and eight rebounds. Croom and Lewis had four points apiece. Speckin had one point. “KK is stepping up as a leader,” he said. “She’s been teaching America how to rebound.”Davie got another shot in the arm from Hannah McMillian, who has been sidelined all year with an injury. She’ll make her sea-son debut this week. “We got even better news: Hannah is cleared to return,” Russell said. “We got that news (at the game). It was another feel-good moment.” High ... The home fans were get-ting loud, but just when it looked as if the War Eagles were in for a four-quarter game, they came up with a 15-3 knockout blow. Gentry was in a zone at this point, scoring on a blow-by drive to the basket and scoring again after stealing a pass. She used a stutter-step to get open, then drained a pull-up jumper. Up 48-29, Davie was on it way to winning com-fortably. The War Eagles did not shoot great (30 percent), but they compensated by drilling 19 of 25 free throws, most of them coming in the fourth quarter. “Wednesday we focussed on offense,” Adams said. “We did free-throw condi-tioning for 20 minutes. We ran for missed free throws. I think that really helped us tonight, being able to shoot free throws when you’re gassed.”Gentry made the dif-ference, scoring 20 points on efficient shooting (6-13 Continued From Page B1for nine of Davie’s 15 points in the first half, which ended with Tabor ahead by two. She converted 3 of 5 field goals, or half of Davie’s makes. “The refs let us play a lot more than what the girls were expecting, and I think it rattled us because of their physicality and their speed,” coach Lindsey Adams said. “It sped us up on offense, we weren’t able to get into a rhythm and we were miss-ing a lot of easy shots.“Kenadi saved us in the first half, and Somer saved us in the second half.”The early offensive struggles set the tone of the game. Davie started 0 for 5 in the third quarter and fell behind 20-15, but Keelyn Oakes kept Davie within striking distance by nailing a 17-footer. Tabor pushed its lead to 22-17, but Davie kept coming back. After Ma-layka Rankin hit a pair of free throws, Gentry got a steal. She passed to John-son, who dished to Rankin, who drained a 15-foot shot. Although Davie only made two field goals in the third, it was only down 22-21 heading into the fourth. Davie found itself down by five again at 26-21. Again, it came roaring back. Johnson got a steal and found Gentry. Peyton Spaugh finished at the other end with a reverse layup. Johnson hit a driving bank shot. When Spaugh split a pair at the line, it was 26-26. “I kept telling them: ‘Our shots are going to fall. You’re doing everything right. Just keep trusting the process. You are a better team,’” Adams said. “In the fourth quarter, I think they really believed that. Once we hit a few shots, that’s when our defense came alive.” Johnson ... Gentry ... A Spaugh steal led to a basket by Gentry, who sank a turnaround hook to cut Tabor’s lead to 29-28. But Tabor scored quickly to regain a 31-28 lead. Then came the game’s biggest moment. Spaugh threw a skip pass over Ta-bor’s zone. Rankin set a screen and Johnson caught the pass on the right wing. A defender rushed out, but it was too late to disrupt Johnson’s 3-point attempt. Although Davie had missed 11 straight 3s, although Johnson had not hit an out-side shot all game, the senior had the confidence to fire be-cause she’s delivered clutch shots the past two years. This was another timely bucket that tied the game at 31-31 with 2:10 on the clock. When it splashed, the bench erupted. Even injured Nadelie Jones jumped out of her seat, hopping up and down on one leg. “We call that ‘Skip,’” Adams said. “That’s the same play we ran against West Forsyth last year when we beat them, when Somer hit the 3 to tie or go up. She sat a lot in the third quarter because her shots just weren’t falling. I think by sitting down in the third, she was able to see what the (Tabor) defense was doing, and when I put her back in in the fourth, she had a lot better reads. She was able to sit there and get a different perspective, and then she wanted to win the ballgame. Most teams don’t play a zone, and it only works against a 2-3 zone. It doesn’t work against a 1-3-1 or anything else, so it’s not something we can run every time down the court.”Johnson’s triple triggered memories from past wins and ignited an 8-0 surge. The fullcourt press led to a Rankin steal. She was fouled and hit both free throws, giving Davie a 33-31 lead, its first advantage since 8-6. Tabor committed a turnover. Davie’s offense used clock before Johnson scored on a drive. On the next offensive possession, Davie was pa-tient before Johnson decided to drive. She was fouled, hit one free throw and made it 36-31 with :33 left. Tabor was cooked when it was called for charging into Colamarino at :28. It was the third time Colamarino had taken a charge. “Coming from West For-syth, Lauren has always been a shot-blocker,” Ad-ams said. “Coming here (as a junior) has been a different game plan for her, but she’s tough as nails. She’s playing on a hurt ankle right now - she has been for the past three weeks - so I was very pleased with the grit she showed, especially in the fourth quarter.”Gentry (11 points) hit three 3s and mixed in 6 steals, 4 assists and 3 re-bounds. Johnson had 10 points and 3 steals. Spaugh racked up 7 points, 9 steals, 6 rebounds and 3 assists while playing all 32 min-utes. Rankin had 6 points and 7 steals. Oakes had 2 points. Colamarino grabbed 6 rebounds and rejected 3 shots as Davie improved to 8-6 overall and 2-2 in the Central Piedmont Confer-ence. It was Davie’s third straight win over Tabor (6-4, 1-3). “Peyton’s points did not reflect what she was doing defensively,” Adams said. “She’s like a little warrior. She gets after it. Nothing re-ally fazes her and she keeps playing hard.” overall, 3-6 from 3-point range). She was one shy of her career high, having hit the 21 mark twice last year. She also had six steals. “At the beginning of the season, Kenadi kind of struggled with her role,” Ad-ams said. “You never know who’s going to be hot. At the beginning of the season, I told her: ‘You don’t have to do it all now.’ Now she’s seeing she can give it up and get assists. She’s getting tons of steals as well.”Johnson went 4-4 at the line and scored 11. Spaugh collected seven points and 10 steals. Rankin put up six points, seven steals and two charges on defense. Colamarino contributed four points, five boards, two assists and two steals against her former team. Bailey Aderhold chipped in two points. Notes: Davie, which went 1-2 against West last year, had lost 16 of 17 in the series. ... Davie (9-6, 3-2) is tied for third. East Forsyth and Reynolds are tied for first at 4-1. Davie and Park-land are both 3-2. ... The top five scoring averages: Johnson 10.7, Gentry 10.5, Rankin 7.8, Spaugh 6.3 and Colamarino 5.4.

Avarie Martin cracked double figures for the fifth time in eight games, but it was an overall tough day for the North Davie girls basketball team as it lost 38-21 at home to Phoenix Academy on Jan. 5. After being idle for 20 days, the Wildcats fell to 4-4. Martin did all she could in the first half. North was behind 22-12 at halftime, and Martin had all but four of the points.

B6 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Thursday, Jan. 12, 2023 Continued From Page B1“By their records, we weren’t supposed to beat (Reagan like that),” he said. “Their (individual) records were pretty good, they had about six seniors on the team (by contrast, Davie has one senior) and I was like: ‘Shoot man, we’re going to have to really wrestle. We’re going to be in a dogfight.’”It proved to be a smooth glide for the War Eagles, who saw Tehandon, Nail, Andy Davis, Hire and Gould record consecutive pins right out of the gate. “We started at 120, we made a couple of moves and the next thing I know, we’re up 30-0,” he said. “I was like: ‘What in the world?’”Long wasn’t sure how things would turn out at 132 (Davis), 138 (Hire), 145 (Gould) and 160 (D. Miller), but that’s where four of Davie’s 11 pins came from. “Their 138-pounder was supposed to be pretty good,” Long said. “I wasn’t going to put Lawson on him, but then I thought Andy could beat their kid at 132 and I bumped Lawson up to 138. In the worst-case scenario, we get three points.

That was a match I thought we’d just get three out of. “Their 145-pounder had a really good record - he was like 18-2 - and I didn’t know if we could win that match. I thought worst-case sce-nario, Gould could stay off his back and give up three. Then Gould went out there and pinned the kid. “And then I had a ques-tion mark at 160. That kid’s record was pretty good, but Dylan pinned that kid. Dylan wrestled good (against East and Reagan).”Then Christian Bo-swell, Testa, Godbey, Ry-der Strickland and Hunter handled their business with pins. Two of Davie’s three losses were forfeits, and Da-vie (11-4 overall) walked off with a 2-0 start in the CPC. Sharpe MemorialLong carried nine varsity guys to the second-annual Gavin Sharpe Memorial Tournament at Mooresville on Jan. 7.

West Rowan (216), Mooresville (173.5), Lin-colnton (135.5), Ragsdale (126.5), Pinecrest (123) and Bandys (115) finished ahead of Davie, which had 92. The War Eagles were paced as usual by Testa, who went 3-0 to finish first at 182. The junior rose to 27-0. Godbey (2-1 at 220) fin-ished second. He’s 26-6 as a junior and 66-16 over two seasons. Strickland (3-1 for third at 285) improved to 25-8 after going 16-15 as a fresh-man. Hire (2-2 for fourth at 132) left with a 28-7 record after getting 24 wins the past two seasons combined.

Loy and Sandra Loy to Laurel A. Meyer, Trustee, for the benefit of Mort-gage Electronic Registration Sys-tems Inc. as nominee for Fairway Independent Mortgage Corpora-tion, which was dated December 17, 2014 and recorded on Decem-ber 17, 2014 in Book 976 at Page 133, Davie County Registry, North Carolina. Default having been made of the note thereby secured by the said Deed of Trust and the undersigned, having been substi-tuted as Trustee in said Deed of Trust, and the holder of the note evidencing said default having directed that the Deed of Trust be foreclosed, the undersigned Sub-stitute Trustee will offer for sale at the courthouse door of the county courthouse where the property is located, or the usual and custom-ary location at the county court-house for conducting the sale on January 19, 2023 at 11:00 AM, and will sell to the highest bidder for cash the following described property situated in Davie Coun-ty, North Carolina, to wit: Being known and designated as Lot No. 12 of Farmland Acres, Section 2, as set forth in Plat Book 5, Page 41, Davie County Registry, to which reference is hereby made for a more particular description. Subject to Restrictive Covenants in DB 104, PG 889, Davie Coun-ty Registry, and any other ease-ments and restrictions of record. For back title, see DB 941, PG 335 and DB 923, PG 431, Davie Coun-ty Registry. See also Tax Map H-5, PCL 211 located in Mocksville Township, Davie County, North Carolina. Save and except any re-leases, deeds of release or prior conveyances of record. Said prop-erty is commonly known as 269 Farmland Road, Mocksville, NC 27028. A cash deposit (no per-sonal checks) of five percent (5%) of the purchase price, or Seven Hundred Fifty Dollars ($750.00), whichever is greater, payable to Bell Carrington Price & Gregg, PLLC, will be required at the time of the sale. Following the expi-ration of the statutory upset bid period, all the remaining amounts are immediately due and owing. Pursuant to N.C. Gen. Stat. § 45-21.30, if the highest bidder at the sale, resale, or any upset bidder fails to comply with its bid upon the tender of a deed for the real prop-erty, or after a bona fide attempt to tender such a deed, the clerk of superior court may, upon motion, enter an order authorizing a resale of the real property. The defaulting bidder at any sale or resale or any defaulting upset bidder is liable for the bid made, and in case a resale is had because of such default, shall remain liable to the extent that the final sale price is less than the bid plus all the costs of any resale. Any deposit or compli-ance bond made by the defaulting bidder shall secure payment of the amount, if any, for which the defaulting bidder remains liable under N.C. Gen. Stat. § 45-21.30. Third party purchasers must pay the excise tax and THE RE-CORDING COSTS FOR THEIR DEED. Said property to be offered pursuant to this Notice of Sale is being offered for sale, transfer and conveyance “AS IS WHERE IS.” There are no representations of warranty relating to the title or any physical, environmental, health or safety conditions existing in, on, at, or relating to the property be-ing offered for sale. This sale is made subject to all prior liens, un-paid taxes, any unpaid land trans-fer taxes, special assessments, easements, rights of way, deeds of release, and any other encum-brances or exceptions of record. To the best of the knowledge and belief of the undersigned, the cur-rent owner(s) of the property is/are Joe K. Loy and Sandra Loy. An Order for possession of the property may be issued pursuant to N.C. Gen. Stat. § 45-21.29, in favor of the purchaser and against the party or parties by the clerk of superior court of the county in which the property is sold. Any person who occupies the proper-ty pursuant to a rental agreement entered into or renewed on or after October 1, 2007, may, after receiving the notice of sale, termi-nate the rental agreement by pro-viding written notice of termination to the landlord, to be effective on a date stated in the notice that is at least 10 days, but no more than 90 days, after the sale date contained in the notice of sale, provided that the mortgagor has not cured the default at the time the tenant provides the notice of termination. The notice shall also state that upon termination of a rental agreement, the tenant is li-able for rent due under the rental agreement prorated to the effec-tive date of the termination [N.C. Gen. Stat. § 45-21.16(b)(2)]. Upon termination of a rental agreement, the tenant is liable for rent due un-der the rental agreement prorated to the effective date of the termi-nation. If the trustee is unable to convey title to this property for any reason, the sole remedy of the purchaser is the return of the deposit. Reasons of such inability to convey include, but are not lim-ited to, the filing of a bankruptcy petition prior to the confirmation of the sale and reinstatement of the loan without the knowledge of the trustee. If the validity of the sale is challenged by any party, the trustee, in their sole discretion, if they believe the challenge to have merit, may request the court to declare the sale to be void and return the deposit. The purchas-er will have no further remedy.

A deposit of the greater of $750.00 or five (5) percent of the successful bid will be required at the time of sale unless the high- est bid is by a taxing unit; then a deposit shall not be required. In the instance where multiple tax parcels are indicated in this No- tice, the Commissioner may elect to sell all of the parcels either in one sale, or on the sale date indi- cated sell each parcel individually by conducting a separate sale for each, or group various parcels together for several sales, or not conduct a sale at all on one or more parcels, as the Commis- sioner determines in his sole dis- cretion as being most likely to sell the parcels at a price adequate to pay all taxes due, as well as fees and costs. Any party contemplat- ing the filing of an upset bid is therefore strongly encouraged to consult the Clerk of Court records to ascertain the parcel or parcels included in the sale for which an upset bid is planned. Upon delivery of the deed, the winning bidder shall be required to pay the costs of recordation of the deed, including deed stamp taxes due to the Register of Deeds. Title and condition of the property will be granted to the successful bid- der “as is” and without warranties. This the 19 day of December, 2022. Richard J.
