Dear Editor,
Many, many years ago I moved to Pickens County and fell in love with the people here - good, loving, honest, friendly people - the best in the world!
Now, over 60 years later, I continue to be reminded why I love this area so much. We always hear about the bad things that happen, but I believe that good deeds need to be recognized.
