A marriage is much more than the ceremony that begins the journey of life together, but that ceremony joins, not just the couple getting married, but families and cultures and faiths.

Like most mothers, I think my children are the best things I’ve ever done – hands down. My daughter, now an adult and living her own life, is a lovely young woman whom I adore. She’s smart and happy and doing fabulously well – a job well done in my opinion. My son is also [...]

I met Jess Sagun, director of Abiding Village, at their storefront gallery/studio, located in the old Waccamaw Outlet Mall off Highway 501.

I was shocked to find out I am in the top three percent! And, I am definitely not wealthy by any of the standards I’ve used to measure [...]

Nancy Jarrett loves order – in her work as the C.P.A. for Waccamaw Community Foundation, and at home where any nice day may find her outside on her riding lawn mower or edging her immaculate lawn – but not before she makes her bed and balances her checkbook to the penny! Warm and attractive, Nancy [...]
