ndependent MMA and Fitness of Newnan is looking for local businesses to partner with them to sponsor police officers taking jiu jitsu classes. Tim Stout, a local real estate agent who has practiced martial arts all his life, said they’ve always given a 50 percent discount for police officers at Independent MMA. However, Stout said they never had many officers come in, possibly because they’re not comfortable attending a normal class. Stout said they started a free police jiu jitsu class and have had officers from the Georgia State Patrol, Clayton County Police Department, Newnan Police Department and Coweta County Sheriff ’s Office attend.

echnical Sergeant Takecia McDuffie, a local Active Duty Air Force Recruiter, has been showing her support for the community by presenting first responders and organizations with Certificates of Appreciation. McDuffie said when she took over as the Air Force Recruiter for the Coweta area, one thing she wanted to do was say thanks to everyone who is making a difference in the community. “As a recruiter, I am able to show thanks to my community,” McDuffie said. “And that is when I decided to present my community leaders and workers with a token of thank you.” McDuffie has distributed Certificates of Appreciation locally to the Newnan Police Department, Newnan Fire Department, Coweta County Sheriff’s Office and Piedmont Newnan Hospital. “On behalf of Piedmont Newnan Hospital, again, it’s what we do, it’s what our nurses, staff, our EVS, our lab, our respiratory — it’s what they do each and every day,” said Mike Robertson, CEO of Piedmont Newnan Hospital. “It’s really them; they are the professionals. They are the ones that strive for excellence and to really take care of our community.” McDuffie said it has been an honor for her to show her appreciation for those in the community who have worked every day during the COVID-19 pandemic to keep the community
going. “Each time I have reached out to ask if I can present the Certificate of Appreciation, I have received such an overwhelming support of gratitude,” McDuffie said. She said as a recruiter she lives by the famous quote by Maya Angelou which says, “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

He said they’ve had a good turn out for the class, and a lot of them started asking how they could do more. Brandon Hand of Driven Import Auto Care suggested to Stout that they ask local businesses to support officers training, and cover the other half of a membership.

“I used to take CBD oil everyday and I thought it really helped me. I saw the article in Marketplace about Catch Some Relief and I thought I would shop locally. After speaking to the owner about the bioavailability of CBD oil I realized I was just throwing away money. I bought the Catch Some Relief Drink Drops and now I really know how well CBD can work for me. I love that I can adjust the amount I take. Thank you Catch Some Relief!” - April B.

Newnan resident celebrates 100 th birthday BY LAUREL HUSTER laurel@newnan.com

Members of First Baptist Church Newnan visit with Virgina Elliott on her 100th birthday.
ewnan resident Virginia Elliott celebrated her 100th birthday Sept. 23 with a socially distant surprise birthday party. Members of First Baptist Church Newnan, where Elliott is one of the oldest members, dropped by to wish her a happy birthday. Elliott worked at the Newnan Hospital for 55 years and retired when she was 93. She was the operating room supervisor for many years, and in her last few years at the hospital, worked in the medical re-
cords department. Jean Thomas helped organize the celebration for Elliott. While Thomas and Elliott are both members at FBC Newnan, Thomas said she first got to know Elliott through working at the hospital together. “She’s just a precious lady,” Thomas said. When asked what the secret to living 100 years is, Elliott said she doesn’t have a secret. “I take each day as it comes,” Elliott said. “The Lord’s been good to me.”
