This is a story told by George Sarris about growing up in Scott's Run, WV; a town that was once home to many immigrants and coal miners in the early to mid-1900s. Although the town of Scott's Run has long since changed and is no longer on the map, the lives of those who lived there (including George) still hold it close to their heart. The people who lived there can attest to the many values and memories shared that were worth so much more than any money or wealth they did not have. This is George's story about his life in Scott's Run.
