Empowered for service

argie Wiley is a woman with a lot on her plate.

In addition to working as a financial adviser for Edward Jones Investments, Wiley is an important presence in the community. She helps plan and organize the finances of more than 350 families across the country, but she somehow finds time to be engaged with the Suffolk Rotary Club, the Suffolk Humane Society, Suffolk Business Women, the YMCA, the Salvation Army, and Toys for Tots.

Wiley says it is difficult balancing all of her different philanthropic passions.

“I have a very supportive husband,” she said, “and he helps me have the opportunity to serve the community. Plus, it helps that I don’t work nine-to-five.”

Wiley became involved in the community after moving to Suffolk three years ago. She quickly became a member of the Suffolk Rotary Club. Before moving to Suffolk, she was also a member in her hometown of Gloucester.

Wiley soon became involved in multiple community programs through Rotary.

From there, she talked to clients and friends to find more opportunities to engage the community.

“I was asking questions, trying to get involved,” Wiley said.

Wiley said that working in the community “has always been a passion” of hers.

“I love to give back. I think it’s so important to have a presence outside your business,” she said.

Before moving to Suffolk, she was active in Gloucester, where she lived for six years.

Wiley became interested in

finance at a young age, and she began working in a local bank in upstate New York when she was 16. After graduating from high school, she continued to work in finance, eventually becoming vice president of the bank where she worked. Though she never earned a college degree, Wiley found her success through hard work.

“School is important. The balance with determination is equally important,” she said, Most recently, Wiley served on the board of directors for the committee that ran the Suffolk Wine Festival. The festival helped fund a scholarship by the Suffolk Business Women, which is used to send a young woman interested in business to college.

After the success of the Wine Festival, Wiley moved on to other philanthropic projects. She is planning a clothing drive for

Dress For Success, an organization that helps women in bad situations by giving them clothes for job interviews, as well as having workshops for interviewing skills. Wiley will also run a women and wealth workshop, hoping to

teach at-risk women how to plan financially.

“I am very passionate about teaching women how to have financial freedom,” Wiley said.

“Women need to be empowered through financial freedom.”

or someone whose job is recreation, Lakita Watson is always hard at work.

Watson, the director of the Suffolk Department of Parks and Recreation since 2003, oversees 43 different facilities, 1,800 acres of space, and 60 full-time employees. And in the summer, her job just gets busier.

A native of Suffolk, Watson worked parttime with the Suffolk Department of Parks and Recreation starting in 1994. During this time, she was pursuing her degree in social work at Norfolk State University before falling in love with the profession of recreation, she said.

“It’s home. I have a lot invested here,” Watson said.

When she was young, Watson was involved in sports through the Parks and Recreation Department.

She cites her basketball coach Alvin Powell as an early influence.

“He would always come out to the community and help out the kids,” she said.

Powell’s desire to help the community obviously influenced Watson, as she is active in Suffolk both at

work and outside it.

Watson is passionate about the variety of different summer programs open for the city’s young people, including six open joint-use facilities for children aged 9 to 12 and a basketball camp for kids as young as 8.

A project that Watson is particularly excited about is “Discover Your Future,” a program that pairs recreation with education to “help young people become better citizens,” according to Watson. “Discover Your Future” has its roots in parks programs from the early 1990s, which Watson was involved with when she was younger.

As a member of Mt. Ararat Christian Church, Watson leads their worship dance. She works with young people in the church through music and dance and is also the leader of the church’s young adult ministry.

Outside of church, she is involved with the Zeta Phi Beta sorority through youth clubs for girls aged 4-18.

“I’m in a unique position to help, because I am home,” Watson said, adding that she tries to work for the community “beyond 9-to-5.”

At work, Watson says, she is particularly proud of the department’s

‘It’s home.

I have a lot invested here.’

“work-readiness program.” This program stretches across multiple city departments. It accepts applications from students based partially on financial need in order to help them overcome economic barriers.

The program hopes to give people work skills by employing them parttime in city departments.

“We try to connect individuals to resources,” Watson said, mentioning that the work-readiness program would also offer opportunities for those in need of GEDs or special certifications.

For younger people, the department is holding a Summer Enrichment Program partnered with Suffolk Public Schools in order to keep kids learning when they’re not in school, Watson said.

“If we can help, we do help,” Watson said.

According to Watson, the ultimate goal of the department is to increase community participation by creating more freestanding recreation centers, and turning Suffolk into a more walkable community.

Eventually, she hopes to increase the city’s participation in recreation and wants to make Suffolk’s natural beauty more accessible. By allowing more access to the water and creating walkable trails, Watson says she has plans to improve the city in the future.

Coming home to RILLCO

BY HENRY LUZZATTO CORRESPONDENT

A

s co-owner of RILLCO Inc., Rosalind Ledbetter-Lacy is not afraid to get her hands dirty.

She runs the daily operations at RILLCO, a local sewage and wastewater treatment company, and is involved with running the accounts, scheduling, consulting, human resources, payroll, marketing, and overseeing eight employees.

“The only thing I don’t do is go into the field anymore,” Ledbetter-Lacy said. “But if I had to, I could.”

RILLCO handles onsite wastewater treatment for all of Hampton Roads and in the Fort Lee area. The company also works with the city to “take care of the handling of sanitation waste,” she said.

Though her father, Ronnie Ledbetter, founded the business in 1972, Rosalind Ledbetter-Lacy only became involved in the company when she returned to Suffolk in 2006.

Before coming back to Suffolk, she lived in Richmond, earning two degrees from Virginia Commonwealth University. After graduating, she worked as a computer programmer for the city of Richmond starting in 1983. She spent more than 20 years working in Richmond before coming back to Suffolk to help her father’s business develop.

“I wanted to come home and help the business grow,” she said. “We needed to sell the company or move to the next level.”

Even though she had the family connection, it was difficult to be one of the only women working in sanitation, LedbetterLacy said.

“At first I felt a little intimidated,” she said. “But now I know as much as they do. If need be, I can get down and do the work myself.”

One of her long-term goals for RILLCO is to turn it into a technical school, teaching skills to those who need them, she said.

Currently, she is making an effort to hire

and teach skills to those who have been incarcerated.

“I really wanted to help the guys and women who were incarcerated to get back into the system,” she said.

Retired contractors teach necessary skills to the new employees. These employees can eventually use these skills to become certified in laying pipe or operating heavy machinery, as well as other possibilities.

“What we try to do is give everybody a chance,” Ledbetter-Lacy said.

Though helping those who were in jail is a company policy, she said that she hopes to partner with the city of Suffolk in the near future, in order to continue to provide opportunities for ex-convicts.

Outside of work, Ledbetter-Lacy is involved in the community by serving as the secretary of the Suffolk chapter of the NAACP. Though she had been a part of the organization before, 2015 is her first year in a leadership position with the group. As secretary, she records meetings and helps membership, convincing people

5

to join the small but important group.

She cites her father, the founder of the company, as her main influence and inspiration at work.

“I learned a lot from his leadership and I learn more every day from him,” she said.

At home with homes

BY R.E. SPEARS III EDITOR

L

ori Carlson, an associate broker with the Re/Max Peninsula real estate office, has a simple philosophy: Your life is a mission.

“Wherever you find yourself, I feel that God has put you there to help people,” she said recently.

Carlson, who was born in Ohio, came to the area to visit relatives in the '80s and never left, said she considers helping people deal with the complicated, important decisions that are part of the homebuying and -selling experiences to be her particular mission field — and she couldn’t be happier that her field is in Tidewater.

“I think this area … is a fantastic area to raise a child,” she said. “It’s the staycation capital of the East Coast. Within an hour of here, you can go anywhere you want.

She and her family especially love the historical destinations near their Carrollton home, for instance.

In her career as a Virginia Realtor, Carlson spends a lot of time cheerleading for CMYK

the Old Dominion to people who — like she and her husband, at one time — are coming here for the first time.

“Re/Max has offices all over the world,” she said, and her clients come from “all over the map.”

In fact, with Hampton Roads’ significant military presence, there are always new people ready to discover the rewards of life in Southeastern Virginia — sometimes arriving with no idea about the place to which they’re moving.

“Several times this year, I have sold properties to people who have never seen (them),” she said. With Skype, FaceTime and other technologies, Carlson is able to meet clients and even show them potential homes without the clients even coming to the area. And her experience in the industry helps her to offer good advice during the process.

“I like to think after 21 years that I’ve seen it all, but there’s always something new,” she quips.

“Purchasing a home is a big decision, and people need help with it,” she said.

And working with clients to find just the

right home “is a very personal way you can impact someone’s life on a daily basis.”

That long experience, though, leads her to a couple of observations about the real estate market.

The market right now is pretty active, and Carlson said she’s seeing sales at price points ranging from $40,000 to $600,000, but if interest rates continue to rise, they could cool things off a bit, so it might be time for potential sellers to get moving.

“It’s a good time if you’re a seller to get your house on the market,” she said.

Conversely, potential buyers risk higher costs the longer they put off their search.

“It’s time to get back in the market now — I wouldn’t wait.”

Homes in the $200,000 to $300,000 range are especially hot right now, she said, but there are also plenty of people looking for homes in the lower ranges, too.

“There’s always more people in the pool in the shallow end than the deep end,” she said.

Chasing after the numbers

BY TRACY AGNEW NEWS EDITOR

K

risty DeJarnette is a numbers person, but don’t make the mistake of thinking that means she doesn’t care about people.

One of the best things about DeJarnette’s job as chief financial officer of Farmers Bank is that she gets to support the employees who are directly serving customers. She also enjoys her co-workers and grew up seeing her employer as a powerful force in the community.

“I really like the people I work with,” she said. “That makes it a lot easier to come to work,” she said.

She grew up in Windsor and was able to observe the bank’s presence in the community even as a child, she said.

“I grew up with my grandparents going to Farmers Bank, and my parents,” she said. “I grew up in the community where they’ve always been in the forefront with donations or time, so I knew it was a

family-oriented business to work for.”

She worked as a teller at Farmers Bank during the summers when she was home from James Madison University. After graduation, she went into public accounting for three or four years, but then Farmers Bank called and asked if she was interested in applying for a controller job they had available.

That was about eight years ago. She worked under three or four different chief financial officers until about three years ago, when she got the job herself.

As chief financial officer, she is responsible for preparing the annual budget, keeping up with all financial reporting for the bank, helping to manage the investment portfolio and more. Her office is in Windsor, but she also visits Suffolk’s Hillpoint branch frequently, she said.

“When I left public accounting, everybody I had worked with in that area said, ‘You’re going to be so bored. You’re going to do the same thing every day,’ but it’s been the complete opposite,”

DeJarnette said.

The job does have its challenges, primarily the current regulatory environment, DeJarnette said. But she has never known anything different.

“I came into banking right at the beginning of the downturn, so all I know is the struggle with the regulatory issues,” she said. “Small banks weren’t the cause of the downturn, but we have definitely felt the effects of it.”

DeJarnette can’t get away from numbers and money even when she’s not at work, as she’s the treasurer for her church, Mt. Carmel Christian Church in Walters. Her husband sings in the praise band there, and they both help out with the kids’ ministry. They have two children, a 4-year-old daughter and a 3-month-old son.

Minding their businesses

BY HENRY LUZZATTO CORRESPONDENT

S

ince it began in 2010, Suffolk Business Women has grown from a monthly networking organization to one of the city’s foremost charitable organizations. At the head of this evolution is Deb Gayle, Suffolk Business Women’s founder and president.

“The organization was originally business ladies getting together,” Gayle said. “We started off networking.”

The group started off as 10 friends who met monthly at a local restaurant to discuss goingson among Suffolk businesses.

As the organization grew, the focus changed.

“That grew into us thinking about organizing a quarterly project,” Gayle said. “We

up the majority of the work she has to do.

With TitleQuest, Gayle searches courthouse records and does research and background before approving title insurance and closing house sales. She has spent 28 years working in the title insurance business.

Gayle worked at a law firm before discovering what would eventually become her calling.

“It just clicked for me,” she said.

Running a business and being active in the community gave Gayle a great opportunity to help raise money and Suffolk’s profile, something she did with the Suffolk Wine Festival this past May. The wine festival was a success, as it brought together and entertained the community and raised more than $57,000 for Suffolk Business Women to donate to various charities.

“We were Women Make the only city in Roads Businesses Run... Hampton without a wine Roll On! festival,” Gayle said. “And what better way to bring the city together?”

The proceeds from the event

changed from networking to giving back to the community.”

These quarterly projects included involvement with the Suffolk Humane Society, the Western Tidewater Free Clinic, Toys for Tots and others.

After working in the community for a few years, Suffolk Business Women registered as a nonprofit organization partially in order for donations made to them to be able to be considered as tax deductible.

Along with running Suffolk Business Women, Gayle is also the president of TitleQuest Hampton Roads, a title insurance company serving Hampton Roads.

“I wear many hats,” Gayle said. As the president, she is involved in marketing, event coordinating and real estate closing, which she says makes

went to various different charities, including a $5,000 scholarship to be given to a young woman who graduates from a Suffolk high school with plans to major in business.

Also benefiting from the wine festival is the Suffolk Boy Scouts/Girl Scouts Camp Fund, which funds and supports Scouts’ efforts to be involved in camping, completing merit badges, or Eagle Scout projects.

A large portion of the money also went to the Make-a-Wish Foundation.

Some of the money also went to the North Suffolk and Suffolk Rotary Clubs because of their

volunteer efforts at the Wine Festival. Gayle herself is a member of the Suffolk Rotary Club.

Because of the success of the festival, it will now be held annually.

A personal connection

BY HENRY LUZZATTO CORRESPONDENT

L

arry and Nell Neal, co-owners of the Suffolk branch of Home Instead Senior Care, are partners in work and in life.

The Neals, both born and raised in Hampton Roads, did not set out to own a business.

“We weren’t looking for it,” Nell Neal said. “And we had never heard of Home Instead.”

However, Nell Neal said, she became interested in opening a franchise of the international organization when a property became available in 2008.

“Their core values were what attracted me,” she said, citing the organization’s first core value: “To honor God in all we do.”

The two opened the business together in March 2009, and during the past six years, it has grown to employ seven fulltime employees, two part-time nurses, and 110 caregivers.

The caregivers provide non-medical care at the homes of elderly clients, Larry Neal said.

“Our employees fill in the gaps between nursing homes and family caregivers,” he said.

Larry Neal said Home Instead’s services are necessary, because family members do not always have the time to care for elderly relatives, and a vast majority of seniors prefer to stay at their homes.

“Families are trusting us to care for the ones they love,” Nell Neal said.

As the owners of Home Instead’s Suffolk branch, the Neals are responsible for hiring and training new caregivers to add to their crew.

Applicants have to go through background checks and must have a good driving record in order to qualify. The business hires only about 5 percent of its applicants, according to Larry Neal.

Once they are hired, caregivers undergo continual training, including personal caregiving classes and training to better engage with clients. They also have re-

cently begun to undergo new training to better deal with clients who have Alzheimer’s disease or dementia.

Before making the decision to own a branch of Home Instead, the Neals worked together.

Both spent more than 25 years at McDaniel’s Roofing, a roofing and construction company in Chesapeake. When the business began to downsize, both moved on to other endeavors.

Nell Neal worked as a credit representative for Volvo Penta for 10 years, and Larry Neal owns and operates a small commercial cleaning business called LT Neal LLC, which he started before beginning work with Home Instead.

The two originally commuted from Chesapeake to Suffolk for Home Instead, but moved here in 2012.

“As the business grew, it required more from us,” Nell Neal said.

“Making that drive got very, very old very, very fast,” Larry Neal added.

Because of the recent growth of the business, Larry Neal says the Suffolk

2015 Women of Suffolk

branch is in dire need of caregivers. He encourages others to apply, saying that becoming a caregiver is a way to “realize what true happiness is.”

Aside from owning the business, the Neals have a personal connection to Home Instead. Nell Neal’s mother has been living with them for 10 years, and while the two work, an employee of theirs comes and takes care of her.

A little Faith in God

BY HENRY LUZZATTO CORRESPONDENT

A

t Faith in God Deliverance Church, Apostle Miriam Sherrod has spent the last 11 years trying to train and teach people to work for God. “I seek out people that truly want to know why they’re here,” Sherrod said. “I want to help them operate in their gift and calling.”

Sherrod was involved in church from an early age, and she cites her father as her main influence.

Her father, the late James H. Sherrod, was an elder at Lakeview Baptist Church while Miriam Sherrod was growing up, and this involvement in the church inspired her, she said.

“Basically everything I know about God I attribute to him,” she said.

Not only his involvement in the church but also his Christian teaching of the family left important marks on Sherrod’s eventual decision to lead a church, she said.

“I’m really just following in his footsteps.”

Sherrod grew up in Suffolk and graduated from Suffolk High School in 1975.

After leaving Suffolk, Sherrod was involved in multiple businesses, eventually starting her own company in 2000.

Sherrod opened Faith in God Trucking in 2000. Starting in 2004 and going until the business closed, Sherrod worked as both the chief executive officer of Faith in God Trucking and the pastor of Faith in God Deliverance Church, originally located in Chesapeake.

Though running two important organizations was difficult, Sherrod said, her leadership positions in each allowed her the time she needed to focus on both. The trucking company, based in Portsmouth, served the community for 12 years before Sherrod closed the business to focus more on her duties as a pastor.

Though running a trucking company and leading a church seem completely different, Sherrod says that her position in both

was very similar.

“I train people to do the work the best they can,” she said. “I have been a trainer in basically every job I’ve had since 18.”

Before becoming a pastor, Sherrod was a member of Calvary Revival Church in Norfolk for six years, where she worked in the church’s women’s ministry and telephone ministry. However, while she was there, she said, she experienced “a burning desire” to do more.

Sherrod studied at Providence Bible College and Theological Seminary and became an ordained minister at New Covenant Ministries in Portsmouth.

In 2004, she founded Faith in God Deliverance Church, which she moved to Suffolk in 2006. She runs the church with a mission to help people “be able to do what God wants them to do,” she said.

While leading the church, Sherrod has also volunteered as a guest minister at assisted living homes, and currently volunteers as a chaplain for Sentara Obici Hospital. In addition, she was the co-founder

11

of Youth Under Christian Countenance, a group that would feed poor youth and mentor about God. Sherrod recently handed over the reins of the project to an elder at Total Transformation Church to focus more on the growth of her church.

Sherrod said she and the church are focusing on new projects in the community, but the details are still in the church committees.

Sherrod said that as an apostle and a leader of a church, she will try to lead others to do their best work in the church.

ittle changes make big results.

That’s the message Terri Brown tries to get across to clients of her business, SalonYou, located inside the Array 700 Salon on West Washington Street, where she works as an independent contractor.

Brown styles hair at the salon, but she also operates her own business there doing natural health coaching and “body works,” which includes everything from “touch therapy” to body waxing, foot detoxing, ear candling and more.

Through evaluation and observation, she said, “I can see where your body is deficient or giving you problems and approach those deficiencies with the appropriate vitamins and minerals.

“Knowing what your body needs is a big part of recovery or CMYK

strengthening."

Brown is a product representative for the Nature’s Sunshine line of herbal supplements, vitamins, minerals and nutritional supplements. She speaks highly of the company’s quality standards and used its products for many years before choosing to sell them.

A graduate of the Suffolk Beauty Academy, she became a licensed cosmetologist in 1989 and has worked in a couple of different local salons since then.

“The reason I came here,” she said of her office at Array 700, “was to layer natural health into my cosmetology toolbox. (This) allows me to step in front of the beauty chair and offer natural, healthy alternatives to better manage your everyday diet and stressful lifestyle.

“Everything I do is non-medical,” she added. “We start off real R.E. SPEARS III/SUFFOLK NEWS-HERALD simple.
