Darlene Garrett, District 5, one of the few GCS board members who comes into meetings without an agenda, with an open mind, and strives for integrity. She truly cares about all stakeholders in our schools – students, parents and educators. Green Ridge Landscape’s Criss Harrell. My yard always looks great, and now my new fire pit and walkway look great as well – my husband and I have really enjoyed them. Patti Stokes and the Northwest Observer for the wonderful article in the Oct. 15-28 edition about the women of Liberty Wesleyan Church’s participation in this year’s virtual Women’s Only 5K Walk & Run. We appreciate the kind coverage. All the people who don’t use Asian people as pawns for their own success. The driver of the white pick-up who slowed down just enough to save my puppy when we were walking along N.C. 150 and a sports car with a loud muffler roared by and spooked him. I will be eternally grateful.

Patti Stokes (NWO editor) for her professional, well-spoken and educated response to the reaction of the “Chinese disease” controversy. Thank you for all the good work you do in this community. Maybe someday other readers will understand the word “context.”
The Northwest Observer • Totally local since 1996
Dr. Wallace and staff at Kings Crossing Animal Hospital. They always go above and beyond for each of our animals, and show utmost compassion when a pet is passing. Thanks to all – we appreciate the wonderful service! The lady at the Stokesdale Post Office standing at the copy machine putting stamps on envelopes. Thank you so much for your help and your contribution. It enabled me to get the copies I needed. Dr. Chandler, principal at Stokesdale Elementary, for her dedication, organization and kind heart during these trying, unknown times. She has been so wonderful to her staff and community and we are lucky to have her as our leader. Jane at Guilford County Elections for all her help ensuring I received the absentee information I needed to vote. I always got clear, concise information for absentee voting and confirmation my ballot was received. Residents of the house on Haw River Road for your wonderful Halloween decorations on the front porch. I love your Pennywise the Clown, which brought a big smile to my face! The Northwest Observer for donating bags of new school supplies to my school. As a teacher, I am very appreciative. The Early Voting process in Oak Ridge, and congratulations to the poll workers on how well it went when I voted there. They have every step under control. Go vote – you will be safe.
