MOORE - Some people called me a snowbird because I spent a lot of time in both Ohio and South Carolina. Not so. I was returning to my deep-seated roots. Now, as a full-time resident of the Palmetto State, I am a certified beach bum! As a writer and an educator, my entire life has been surrounded by words. I savor the sounds and sense of letters put together to create a lasting memory. Hopefully my stories will be appreciated for a very long time. JERRY HALL, TREASURER RICHARD PASCHALL, REGISTRAR
