A Peek into Time
The McGee family cemetery dates back to mid to late 1800s. My grandparents,great-grandparents and great-great grandparents all rest here. Some markers trace the brief moment on earth of day old infants. Standing on history is an incredible feeling.
I adore old cemeteries. My relatives are scattered, but my great greats are buried in this amazing old Chicago Lawn cemetery - we used to go there every memorial day - my brother once locked me in an old mausoleum which had rusted open.
With a unified voice, two of the South’s most admired journalists combine talent, experience and vision for a blog that promises more things creative from what will soon be known as a Deep South dream team. “Storytelling,” says Doc Lawrence, a veteran editor, publisher and lifelong print journalist, “is second nature to Lynne Brandon, something she does with authenticity.” Lawrence, whose publishing and radio/TV career began many years ago, welcomes the relationship with another skilled writer. “Good writing is like really good wine,” says Lawrence. “There are no accidents. Lynne is genuine, as Southern as Harper Lee and Fannie Flagg. She is headed to the top of Southern writers." Lynne Brandon lives in Greensboro, North Carolina and Doc Lawrence works from his home in Stone Mountain, Georgia near Atlanta.
