George was minister here at Salem United Methodist Church for nearly seven weeks, and Salem's pastor, Charles Sisk, went to England to minister to Palmer's church. In August, Palmer returned to Davie County, staying with friends he made here 27 years ago, Paul and Margaret Shew on Davie Academy Road. Much of their time in the United States was spent with the Shews, while they took trips to Myrtle Beach, S.C., Washington, D.C. and other points of interest. Now pastor of Ridgeway Methodist Church in Plymouth, England, population some 2 mil lion people. Palmer said he en joyed the tranquil life that Davie County offers. "This area of Mocksville hasn't really changed a great deal," he said. 'There are a few more houses in the country, but it's still very tranquil." "It's a nice, country life," Maureen said. Coming hrom a city of 2 mil lion, even the mid-sununer pace of Myrtle Beach didn't bother the Palmers. "In England," every thing is crowded," he said. "So Myrtle Beach was no problem." They speak favorably of the Shews, who opened their home 27 years ago when the Palmers brought their four young chil dren to Davie County, spending much of their time with the Shews and their daughters. Mar garet Shew took care of their children, Maureen said. "All of the children hav& vivid memories of their time here," George said, adding that all have grown into successful lives and careers. n "We became part of the same family, and we've kept in corre spondence," he said. "Our chil dren remember Margaret well because her girls... and our girls got along very well." If it wasn't for the Shews' hospitality, this time around. Palmer said he and his wife wouldn't have had their splen did vacation in the United States. After spending time with their daughter and their first grandchild, they flew to the United States, staying with friends in Tennessee and with the Shews. "We revisited the churches that I was minister of," George said. "We renewed friendships, and we have been able to visit Washington, D.C. and Myrtle Beach. "We had an absolutely won derful and delightful stay with Margaret and Paul. We felt we belong here. They've made us feel like we're family." The fresh tomatoes and can taloupes that Paul picked from his garden and made sure were at most meals didn't hurt their enjoyment of a month in Davie County. One thing they've especially enjoyed is the Christian televi sion in the United States. "We don't have any Christian television whatsoever," he said. "We've enjoyed the variety of Christian channels and pro grams. That's been an important part of our stay," he said. "We're going home certainly refreshed." o ^3 - DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, Aug. 30, 2001 m % George and Maureen Palmer enioyed their stay with Margaret and Paul Shew of the Davie Academy community.
