Boose "Thedcvelopmcniof Rich Park is a challenge lo each and every cidzen of Mocksviile," said Glenn G. Rooso on February 10, 1949 in a talk lo Ihe newly formed Mocksviile Jaycoe Club Boose, a (eachcr and allilelic coach al the Mocksviile High School, was addressing the need of Ihe Mocksviile Community for a lighted athletic field for high school and community contests, and also the need for a recreation area for young boys and girls. At that lime Rich Park was in a run down, delapidaled slate and in no way was a tribute to Thomas W, Rich who gave It to Ihe town on nclohcr 16. 1949. I i\ The Jaycces picked up the challenge issued that night by Boose and initialed the drive to develop the park. Out of this drive came the formation of the Davie Memorial Association that look over the re.sponsibility of the park, and raised, fimds for tie liditiiigand developing. Also that same year saw the citizens of the Town of Mocksviile adopt a tax-supported recreation program that has meant so much to so many down through the years. Boose, a native of Forsyth County, came to the Mocksviile High School about 1934. He was a math teacher and coached boys basketball. The 1936-37 year saw his boys basketball team post one of the best records in the state winning 27 games and losing only 3. In the early 1940s, during World War II, he moved to Boyden High School in Salisbury as teacher and coach. In 1947 he returned to Mocksviile High to coach both football and basketball, as well as teach math. In 1957, because of health reasons he and his wife, the former Troy Sapp, moved lo Florida where both taught until retiring about 10 years ago. As a teacher and coach in this community, Glenn Boose had a great in fluence on the many with whom he came in contact. He practiced the belief that education should teach us how to think, rather than what to think. He sought to improve minds to enable us lo think for ourselves, rather than just load our memroies with the thoughts of other men. Glenn Boose was a quiet and thoughtful man. He was considerate, unassuming, soft-spoken and kind. He was, in the words of Wordsworth; "A man whose life was filled with little, nameless, imremembered acts of kindness and love." It was long ago that a great philosopher observed: "The grandest operations, both in nature and grace, are the most silent and imperceptible.—The shallow brook babbles in its passage and is heard by every one; but the coming of the seasons is silent and unseen.—The storm rages and alarms, but its fury is soon exhausted, and its effects are but partial and soon remedied; but the dew, though gentle and unheard. Is immense in quantity, and is the very life of large portions of the earth.-And these are pictures of the operations of grace in the church and in the soul. The above is certainly attributable to the life of Glenn O. Boose. I feel certain that I am joined by many others when I say:-"My life was made better by the influence of this man during my hi^ school days...he quietly gave so much In so many ways --Gordon Tomlinson tlKMlt CouKSTrV R.eco(LO n ft dcM ii; i'ipa 71^6'/,c.- (9iWi/W>s3.DAVIE COUNTY ENTERPRISE RECORD, THURSDAY, MARCH II, 1982'-Area ObituariesJOHN W.

N.C. « > j !• r n Harley Sofley For more than 50 years Harley SoHey and his barber shop were almost landmarks for downtown Mocksville. Completing barber college in 1925, his first job was with barbers Grady and Walter Call in the old Weant Building, Al that time a haircut cost a mere ,35-cents, as did a bath, massage, shampoo. A shave was only .20 cents. Working in barbershops located in various places around the square, Sofley moved in 1934 into a shop located just behind what is now Mocksville Furniture Company. For the next 43 years this shop not only provided haircuts and shaves, but also served as a gathering place for those wanting to keep up with the latest news in and around Davie, Harley Sofley opened his barbershop early in the morning (6:30 or? a.m.) and stayed open until 8 or 9 p.m. Monday through Friday, and often as late as midnight on Saturdays. In addition to barbering, Harley Sofley took orders for tailor-made suits, rented but cars for taxis, sold real estate and built houses. In our bicentennial issue in 1976. this newspaper carried an article alwul Harlev Sofley and the changes he had seen lake place tn and around Mocksville for half a century. He recalled when the huge pm oaks wereplumed on the square and watching them grow through the yeare. Hewitnessed the paving of the highway and square, and the arrival of motor cars. For the past several years Harley Sofley had been in declining health and was confined to a nursing home located near one of his sons in Crafton, Maryland, He. died early this week in a hospiul there. There are many in this area that remember Harley Sofley and the ex perience of having a haircut by him. Noted for his speed and dexterity with the clippers it was often said that when in bis chair use only short sentences in conversation your haircut was finished often before you could tell him how you wanted it cut. T-ime marches on but men like Hurley Sofley will always be remem bered for he was so much a part of the scene. /o2D - DA VIE COUNTY ENTEWRISE RECORD, TOURSDAY, APRIL 8, 1982I Area Obituaries^ MRS.

Spurgeon AndersonOn a cold day about the 1st of December 1919, a 24-year-oid farm boy andrecently returned veteran of World War 1, drove a horse and buggy up to theCalahaln Post office. Loading mail into his buggy, he set out to deUver mailon a rural route for which he had been appointed,Charles Spurgeon Anderson had been out of the U.S. Army only six monthswhen he began carrying the mail. During World War I. he served a yearoverseas with the famed 30th "Old Hickory" Division.In 1922, the horseless carriage was becoming quite popidar in this area.Spurgeon Anderson, switched from the horse and buggy for mail carryingduring the summer months-but itwas back with "ole dobbin" and the buggybecause of the road conditions during the winter months. kIn 1932. the postoffice was abolished at Calahaln and Spurgeon Andersonstarted carrying mail out of Mocksville.In 1921 he had married Celia Shaw of Harmony. From 1921-1934 the familylived in the Calahaln community, moving to the Wilkesboro Street residencein Mocksville in 1934.During his 34 years as a mail carrier, Spurgeon Anderson served threegeneratims. Just prior to his retirement in July 1957, many patrons he wasserving on Rt. 1 Mocksville were grandchildren of the patrons he servedduring his earlier years.During his 37-year and 8-months of carrying the mail on a rural route, heshared the joy and sorrow of the families along his route. He also noted theprogress from the one-horse plow stage to modem mechanized fanning;from unpainted frame houses to the modem home. When he first startedcarrying the mail, practically ail his patrons wo'e farmers. .At hisretirement, the farm was still there—but at least one out of every family wasengaged in public work. 'During his lifetime he witnessed first hand the development of electricpower, and the progress it wrought; paved roads, telephones, radio, thentelevision, and modem space travel—even to the man on the moon. In allprobability the life of Charles Spurgeon Anderson spanned the greatest 80years of progress and development the world has ever known.On his retirement as mail carrier in 1957, Spurgeon Anderson sp<^e whathad been and would continue to be his lifetime creed;"What I regret most about retiring is missing my daily contacts with mymany friends I have made along my mail route."Spurgeon Anderson, whether he realized it or not, was'a follower of the 'philosophy of Ralph Waldo Emerson who said:"Theorily way to have a friend is to be one. 'And, Charles Spurgeon Anderson was a friend to everyone he ever met. Hehad no enemies.He was always an active member of agaides that would help others:Mocksville Masonic Lodge .No. 134, a member Iot more than 50 years andsecretary for 24 years; The Mocksville Savings and Loan Assn. on the boardof directors for 35 years; the American Legion; and the First Baptist Cnurch |of Mocksville.He was in the words of Clarendon, in his friendship;"Had the skiU and observation of the best physician, the diligence andvigilance of the best nurse, and the tenderness and patience of the bestmother."A great philospher once observed:"Life is to be fortified by many friendships-to love and be loved is thegreatest happiness of existence. 'And thus was Charles Spurgeon Anderson.OAVIE CO. PUBUC LIBRARYNC
