Meet Gillian Roy

Construction was in progress the day I met Gillian Roy at the new Family Justice Center in Georgetown. Located on Highmarket St., beside the Piggly Wiggly, the Center, due to open by the end of the year, will house a myriad of services dedicated to helping victims of domestic violence. Gillian, a Pawleys Island resident [...]

Meet Cliff "Kringle" Snider

I was as excited as, well, as a child at Christmas when Cliff “Kringle” Snider agreed to be interviewed. I mean, for all intents and purposes, he is Santa Claus, and even at my age, Santa invokes the excitement and magic of Christmas. Cliff has been playing Santa since he was 16 years old. As [...]

Tammy Mills: Photo 1

Tammy Mills is the picture of health – pretty and petite with glowing skin and a bright smile. Our meeting in a local restaurant was filled with laughter, fun and a few tears. Why the tears? Tammy has Stage 4 breast cancer that has metastasized to her liver. She’s been told it can be treated, [...]

October 2010 Theme: Thrive

Most people who know me are aware that I love my volunteer work with animal rescue, mainly dogs and mostly Jack Russell Terriers.

August 2010 Theme: Playing By the Rules

For me, swimming in the ocean is a spectacular way to spend an hour or so. It’s a great way to cool off and riding the waves is fun – I like boogie boards, too. I used to run with a group every Saturday morning, and, in the heat of summer, we would run Pawleys [...]
