CLAYTON NATIVE SEEKS TO INSPIRE WITH 'MY NAME IS SPECIAL'

By Randy Capps

One of them is in a wheelchair, one has lost her hair because of cancer, another walks with the assistance of crutches and one has multiple sclerosis. “‘My Name is Special’ is a book on kids with disabilities,” Watson said. “It’s an inspirational book, and I wrote it based on family members and some people that I know that have various forms of disabilities.”

The Special character was inspired by a nephew of hers who stuttered. Watson also drew inspiration from a sister battling breast cancer and a neighbor’s daughter, who’s also a cancer patient.

Jean R. Watson

Growing up is tough, and making that journey with a disability is even more challenging.

That’s where “My Name is Special” comes in.

The book, written by Johnston County native Jean Richardson Watson, focuses on Special, a teenage girl with a speech impediment.

Special, while dealing with her own challenges, inspires her friends to overcome their own disabilities.

“Special is more of a motivator in the story line,” she said. “She’s been teased, she’s cried a lot, felt like she was alone and didn’t fit in. … I focused on Special because she really knew how to inspire people, despite of her disability. Doing that got her past her own disability.”

This is her sixth published work, following “Poetry From the Heart,” “Poetic Expressions,” “Onyx the Butterfly,” “A Thief in the Night” and “Inspirational Quotes for Life.”

“My Name is Special” is her second children’s book, and the reasoning behind it was simple.

Rev. Gail Myers, Pastor Sunday School 9:30 am Sunday Worship Celebration 11:00 am Monday Intercessory Prayer 6:30 pm Monday Bible Study 7:30 pm - Meal Served

Food Pantry

“We have a lot of kids with disabilities, and I just felt like it was time for me to put that book out,” she said.

Watson recently retired from Nationwide Insurance, but has been writing since her high school days at Clayton and Smithfield-Selma high schools.

Some of her first writing efforts were love poems to her future husband, Winston.

“Like anything you do in life, the more you do it, the better you get at it,” she said. “I’m not Maya (Angelou) or anybody like that, and I don’t claim to be. But it is a skill. God gave it to me, so I’m using it to inspire.”

It was a poem she wrote after the death of her husband’s brother that sparked her interest in becoming a published author — on the suggestion of one of her English teachers at SmithfieldSelma.

She still has more stories to tell.

She has about 12 manuscripts done, and she’s working on her third book of poetry. She’s also hoping to write a romance novel.

Jean and Winston have been married for 39 years and reside in Clayton. They have a son, a daughter and a grandson.

AROUND TOWN SINGERS AND ORCHESTRA TO STAGE 'A CLAYTON CHRISTMAS' ON DEC. 1

By Randy Capps Photo courtesy of ATS&O

It’s been almost 80 years since Daffy Duck convinced Porky Pig to give up the cartoon business and try his luck in Hollywood in “You Ought to Be in Pictures.”

But that dream lives on, thanks to TV shows like “The Voice” and “American Idol.” The idea of being a star is one thing. Finding that diamond in the rough, on the other hand, is what drives Daniel Kehoe.

Kehoe, a lifelong musician and founder of The Around Town Singers and Orchestra (ATS&O), discovers local talent, places them on stage with custom arrangements and a 20-piece orchestra and gives them an opportunity to shine.

8 | JOHNSTON NOW

“The interesting thing about us is we’re not a community chorus as such,” he said. “(The idea is) to find people who are really good, but don’t have a place to perform. So, I scoop them up, give them a paid audience, a full orchestra, custom arrangements, things like that.

“You know people who are really good when they sing at a wedding or something, and you think, ‘they should be on TV.’ But they work at Aetna or IBM or something. I pick up those people. In the spectrum, there are people going to Broadway, Hollywood or Nashville. They’re up there, and they’re already doing that. There are people at the bottom who you’d never want to put on stage.

“They’re just not meant for it, and they don’t want to do it. Then there are these people in the middle, up high, and those are the people I scoop up.

People who are really, really good, but don’t have a place to perform.”

The ATS&O has been around in New England since 2008, and Kehoe brought the organization to Clayton earlier this year. The group staged the “Hymn Sing Spectacular” in July at The Church @ Clayton Crossings, and their next show, “A Clayton Christmas,” is set for Dec. 1 at The Clayton Center.

“Come and hear the great, golden era-type musical performances, comedy, things like that,” he said of the upcoming Christmas show. “What

will be in it? Depends on who I get. …

This is premium entertainment using local people that you wouldn’t expect.

People will look up there and say, ‘that’s Sue from the bank. I didn’t even know she could sing.’”

Kehoe is a former marketing executive for Compaq and the owner of Bigfoot Laboratories, but music has always held a special place in his heart.

He had an ear for music at a young age, but what he didn’t have was a place to showcase his skills.

“My passion has always been music,” he said. “I was always looking for that place to perform.”

It’s still a hole he’s trying to fill.

“I try to give (performers) as great a stage experience as I can,” he said. “And they’re fulfilled, and my show is fulfilled. … My job is to match the person to what they can really do. And say, ‘boy, you sound just like Gene Autry, could you do ‘Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer?’ We’ll do that arrangement. I assemble the show based on what I have found.”

According to Kehoe, “A Clayton Christmas” will be “chock full of Christmas music that you and I grew up with that you don’t really hear anymore.”

That makes the show a bit of a throwback to a bygone era, too.

The End of World War I in Johnston County

By Ben Sanderford

November 11, 1918, was a big day for eightyear-old Margaret McLemore of Cleveland Township. Her father, a country doctor and the only person around who had a telephone, had just received word that the German government had surrendered to the Allied forces of Britain, France and the United States.

Margaret spent the day spreading the news around the neighborhood: The Great War was over. The men of Johnston County, including her uncle, would soon be home.

Back on May 18, 1917, a little more than a month after the United States entered the war, Congress had passed the Selective Service Act, establishing a draft registry for all men aged between 21 and 31. As a result, thousands of young men, black and white, rich and poor, arrived at Johnston County Courthouse, some eager to “beat back the Hun,” others preferring to be left alone.

Regardless of what they thought, the army began to send Johnstonian men to training camps in the fall, leaving their families to make do without them.

Women now had to provide for their children unaided for the first time since the Civil War. It helped that they received $100 a month from their husbands’ army pay, but it was not enough to make ends meet.

Eva Hood Hooks of Smithfield wrote to her husband, Dr. Thel Hooks, in the summer of 1918 that she could only afford to cook a single meal each day for herself and their children. The result was that thousands of women began to fill traditionally male jobs.

These included schoolteacher Edith Powell of Sanders Chapel, whose two oldest brothers left the family farm for the war. She, her sister and her kid brother, according to “The Smithfield Herald,” “are reorganizing the farm for profit and more profit.”

Before 1917, it had been rare for a woman like Edith Powell to show such boldness, but not anymore. The Herald commented further “that our women are beginning to see and do their duty whatever it may be and regardless of former customs.” This trend would only grow over the course of the century.

Meanwhile, in Europe, Johnston County boys rubbed shoulders with other North Carolinians during the last campaigns of the war. Troops from the Tar Heel State participated in every battle from the repulse of the last German attack at the Marne River to the MeuseArgonne Offensive.

The men of Johnston showed great valor throughout this time. Ensign Edwin Smith Pou of the Naval Air Service was awarded the

SMITHFIELD — Design Development Architects of Raleigh has been awarded "Outstanding School Design 2018" for two of their recent educational projects by “American School & University,” a premier publication celebrating the best in educational design on a national level.

Neuse Charter School's high school and East Wake Academy's middle school in Zebulon were the only North Carolina schools to receive this recognition in 2018.

Architect Jonathan Medlin was the lead designer on both projects.

During a private tour, Senator Richard Burr commented, "I'm blown away... this looks like a higher education building ... This is one of the great success stories of the state."

Neuse Charter's high school building was constructed as the anchor project to this growing campus. Its position at the front of the 26-acre site presents a

“This outstanding recognition exemplifies determination, sacrifices and responsible use of taxpayer dollars,” said NCS Treasurer Rodney Dunn. “Charter schools do not receive any money directly to purchase land or build buildings for our students. We must be able to provide facilities and operate the school on the base allotment we receive from the state and county funds.”

NEIGHBORS JOHNSTON HEALTH EARNS NATIONAL ACCREDITATION FROM THE COMMISSION ON CANCER OF THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF SURGEONS

SELMA MIDDLE SCHOOL HOSTS FIRST COMMUNITY NIGHT Submitted by Johnston County Public Schools

SELMA — More than 300 members of the Selma community came together to celebrate the first Community Night at Selma Middle School recently.

Submitted by Johnston Health

SMITHFIELD —The Commission on Cancer, a quality program of the American College of Surgeons, has granted three-year accreditation to the cancer program at Johnston Health. To earn voluntary CoC accreditation, a cancer program must meet 34 quality care standards, be evaluated every three years through a survey process and maintain levels of excellence in the delivery of comprehensive patient-centered care.

Because it is a CoC-accredited cancer center, Johnston Health takes a multidisciplinary approach to treating cancer as a complex group of diseases that requires consultation among surgeons, medical and radiation oncologists, diagnostic radiologists, pathologists and other cancer specialists. This multidisciplinary partnership results in improved patient care.

“We recognize that fighting cancer is stressful enough,” says Chuck Elliott, CEO and president of Johnston Health.

“To help our patients, we’ve assembled a comprehensive program that pairs expert care and world-class treatment with the support and resources they will need in order to have the best possible outcome and experience.”

The CoC accreditation program provides the framework for Johnston Health to improve its quality of patient care through various cancer-related programs that focus on the full spectrum of cancer care including prevention, early diagnosis, cancer staging, optimal treatment, rehabilitation, life-long follow-up for recurrent disease and end-of-life care.

When patients receive care at a CoC facility, they also have access to information on clinical trials and new treatments, genetic counseling and patient-centered services including psycho-social support, a patient navigation process and a survivorship care plan that documents the care every patient receives and seeks to improve cancer survivors’ quality of life.

Selma Middle faculty, students and their families were invited to the event to celebrate the school and its students, as well as local businesses and organizations in the community.

Selma Mayor Cheryl Oliver and North Carolina State University mascot Ms. Wuf attended #WeAreSelma Community Night at Selma Middle on Oct. 3.

Dozens of local vendors and community members from the greater Smithfield-Selma area attended the event. Selma Mayor Cheryl Oliver attended the Community Night, along with local businesses and organizations

like the Boys & Girls Club and the Selma Lions Club.

“The turnout was great. Our hope is to continue not only to grow this event, but to increase the two-way involvement between our families and our community members,” said Selma Middle Assistant Principal Shannon Pawlak.

Families and guests had the opportunity to visit with each of the vendors and receive gifts and information about their services.

Parents were also welcomed into their child’s classroom to meet teachers and view the amazing work on display within their rooms.

Family members were invited to participate in an activity called “Shout Out,” where parents wrote inspiring messages on cards and had their picture taken to accompany their messages. The photos and messages will be hung around Selma Middle to remind students they are supported in their efforts.

ADULT SPELLING BEE RAISES $13,000 FOR CLASSROOM GRANTS Submitted by Johnston County Public Schools

Pictured are, left to right, Executive Director of the Johnston County Education Foundation Brandy Crocker; West Johnston High Principal Jennifer Swartz; West Johnston High teacher Shannon Ferguson; Adult Spelling Bee announcer Drew Goettman; West Johnston High teacher Robert Cawthorn; West Johnston High teacher Heather Earp; West Johnston High teacher Brad Deen and Adult Spelling Bee mascot Blake Roberson.

SMITHFIELD — Johnston County Schools educators, businesses and community members came together to raise $13,000 at the Johnston County Education Foundation (JCEF) 2018 Adult Spelling Bee recently at Smithfield-Selma High.

“This is a fun night for everybody involved where we raise money for our classrooms,” said Brandy Crocker, Executive Director of the Johnston County Education Foundation. “The worse your spelling is, the more money we make.”

The Adult Spelling Bee is one of the largest fundraisers JCEF puts on each year. Proceeds from the fundraiser go toward grants for teachers in Johnston County Public Schools.

Whenever a team misspelled a word they had the opportunity to donate money to stay in the game. If the team decided not to pay they were eliminated.

Schools from around the district, as well as local businesses, competed to raise money for the education foundation.

West Johnston High defeated CorinthHolders Elementary in the final round to win the 2018 Adult Spelling Bee.

The winning word for West Johnston High was “phytosuccivorous,” which means feeding on the sap of plants — usually used for insects.

Adding to the evening’s fun, teams dressed in costumes and competed in best costume and team spirit events.

The team from Grifols, dressed as the cast of “The Wizard of Oz,” won the best costume award. The team from Benson Elementary won the team spirit award.

JOHNSTON COUNTY WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT CENTER GETS $1.3 MILLION REDESIGN

By Randy Capps Photos courtesy of Johnston Community College

CLAYTON — Leslie Isenhour, Director of Biotechnology at Johnston Community College, stopped in the middle of a tour of the newly redesigned Biomanufacturing Simulated Work Environment at the Johnston County Workforce Development Center recently to ask a question.

While pointing at a shelf of chemicals, she paused in front of a small white bottle.

“And sucrose is?” she asked a tour goer.

“Sugar” came back as the reply. “Good,” she said, continuing the tour.

Grifols employs about 1,600 people while Novo Nordisk has more than 1,100 people on its payroll. With new projects underway at both facilities, a state-of-the-art training facility nearby is good for both companies.

“The Workforce Development Center will open job opportunities and new career paths to residents in Johnston County and beyond,” Sergi Roura, Grifols president of North America Facilities, said in a press release. “The Grifols Clayton site is investing in new facilities to double its current capacity, so we will need to increase significantly our workforce over the next few years. The Center will be critical in providing talented, skilled and highly-trained individuals to fill these roles.

The revamped training facility allows workers or students to simulate the biotech manufacturing process, with everything from creation to storage to shipping.

“I’m always thinking about the future,” Isenhour said. “Looking back, I can say that this is everything I could have imagined plus. It’s everything I’ve ever

Moving forward, we always have to keep in mind how we can stay above the curve.

“We’re at the curve now, but in five years or 10 years, we always have to stay above it if we’re going to train people to work in the current environment.

For me, personally, it’s a dream come true.”

“It will also enable us to provide better training opportunities to our current employees, allowing Grifols to train in a similar production environment without affecting our operations.”

His counterpart at Novo Nordisk, Chad Henry, corporate vice president and general manager in Clayton, agrees.

“With Novo Nordisk’s capabilities in Clayton expanding to different processes, a facility uplift like the Workforce Development Center training lab will enable us to recruit and onboard new talent much faster,” he said in a release.

“Collaboration with industry, JCC and the county helps create relevant, regional solutions to potential talent and training gaps.

The drive was organized by the Meadow School Beta Club and was under the direction of teacher Gayle Hobbs.

Susan Brown, a teacher at Meadow, worked alongside Hobbs and the students to recruit volunteers to donate supplies.

Volunteers for the supply drive included Lowe's Home Improvement of Clinton, Parker Gas, Johnson's Transmission of Dunn, Advance Signs in Angier and several community members. Staff members also provided donations to make the event a success.

Donations were sorted into 150 five-gallon buckets that were donated by Lowe's. Each bucket was filled with nonperishable items and hygiene products. After they were filled, they were delivered to Union Elementary for distribution.

JOHNSTON HEALTH HONORS EDUCATION DEPARTMENT SECRETARY AS AMBASSADOR OF THE MONTH Submitted by Johnston Health

At center, CEO Chuck Elliott congratulates Phoebe Allen on being named Johnston Health Ambassador of the Month. At right is Lori Martin, director of education, and at left is Tim Hays, vice president of human resources.

SMITHFIELD — Phoebe Allen, the secretary for the education department at Johnston Health, has been named Ambassador of the Month.

During a recent presentation, CEO Chuck Elliott said Allen sets a bright tone for the office and is always kind and caring when assisting others.

“She makes employees feel as though she has all the time in the world for them even though she’s being pulled in 10 directions,” he said.

In addition to assisting employees with their required training, she schedules members of the community for classes in areas such as childbirth education and students who want to job shadow in areas of the hospital.

Before joining the education department three years ago, Allen was the secretary in the Smithfield emergency department for 15 years. “It’s sometimes hectic, but I like every aspect of what I do,” she said. “I like making sure everything goes as it should. And I love the people I work with. They make it easy to be part of the team.”

Allen and her husband, L.B., live in Four Oaks. They have two grown children and seven grandchildren.

Through the ambassador program, Johnston Health recognizes employees who go above and beyond the call of duty. They deliver quality care, foster teamwork and offer excellent service.

In addition to a designated month-long parking space, Allen will receive eight hours of paid time off. november 2018 | 31

The Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 88 bought and donated 500 book bags to help children in Johnston County Public Schools recently.

Each new book bag was filled with school supplies like pencils, paper, glue sticks, erasers, folders and notebooks, which were also purchased by the organization.

“This event shows we are partners and not separate entities in our community,” Dr. Allen said. “We work closely with our community members to make sure we are meeting the needs of our youth. The work we are doing with kids in the classroom directly affects the work officers do in the community.”

“It’s part of our mission as the Johnston County Fraternal Order of Police to make sure we get out and give back to the community,” Ronald Daniels said. “It’s exciting and rewarding to be a part of this because we know there are kids out there who don’t have these items and to be able to provide them is a great thing.”

Members of the Order worked alongside JCPS Student Services staff to fill the bags in September at the JCPS West Campus Gymnasium in Smithfield.

“We are really thankful for all the support today, especially in the wake of Hurricane Florence. These supplies are needed now more than ever,” Dr. Amanda Allen, Director of Social and Emotional Learning for Johnston County Public Schools, said.

The Fraternal Order of Police began donating book bags to the district in 2005. This year marks the 14th year that they have continued to show their support.

I was born to serve! Thank you for the opportunity to serve as your Representative to the NC House.”

- Rep. Donna McDowell White I served you on the Johnston County School Board. I was labeled “the peoples board member,” because I always called you back and helped you with all the resources at my disposal.

As your state representative, I have returned your calls, texts, and emails and met with many of you at your request.

other infrastructure projects. I have voted to increase both teacher and principal pay, and waive the class size requirement for four years.

I am recognized as a top pro-business legislator by the North Carolina FreeEnterprise Foundation.

I wrote successful legislation to create an aging study committee, neonatal testing, increase victim advocate funding, and access to healthcare. I sponsored bills to support agriculture and local farmers.
