Asking you to tell us about “the finest
neighbor you ever had” hit a chord. More than 200 stories
came in. Virtually all of them were about the neighbors who are
“always there for us.”
At a time when people in many
communities hardly see their neighbors, it’s encouraging
to know that in rural North Carolina there are so many generous,
helpful, loving people who care about the neighbors near them.
They are people who simply enjoy your company, and who stand by
you in the good times and during times of need. They are people
you are happy to see any time of the day or night, and they are
just as happy to see you.
Another nice thing about being a member of
a cooperative is that you’re all neighbors, too.
Thanks to everyone who sent in stories and
pictures.
