On November 17, 2024, Ms. Pat Milton gave me the name and phone number of a lady who would be a great interview. I texted the lady (because I don’t like talking on the phone) and did not get a reply. This is pretty common in our area. Some of the local people who are making a difference are shy. They do not want to be showcased. It isn’t about them. I got a response last Tuesday (five months later), and we arranged a meeting time. There are no coincidences in life. I quickly found out that as Easter Sunday approaches, my interview was with a pastor. Joyce Ann Stanley Johnston was born in Shalotte, North Carolina, near Myrtle Beach. Her daddy died when she was a baby. His death made her mother move the family to Claxton, where her mother lived. Joyce had two brothers. Her brother, Earl Stanley, lives in Claxton and retired from working for the City of Claxton.
