SPOTLIGHT

OUR HEROES AT HOME Patrina Cude of Sharman’s Sewing Center makes a protective mask based off a design developed with a local doctor on March 24. (Michael Cavazos/ News-Journal Photo)

Words by Christina Cavazos hen the COVID-19 pandemic hit East Texas, Sharman Dorsey knew she couldn’t be on the frontlines as a nurse treating patients or as a first responder out in the community. But she, like countless others in East Texas, felt called to do something for the community. “I believe that God expects us to step up when we have the opportunity, and when we have a gift. And, we can sew,” said Dorsey, who owns Sharman’s Sewing Center in Longview and Tyler. When Dorsey learned there was a potential shortage of personal protective equipment, commonly known as “PPE,” she and her employees at Sharman’s Sewing Center stepped up to the plate to develop a face mask design approved by local medical professionals. Then, the staff and the customer base of Sharman’s went to work sewing face

masks for the community. So far, Dorsey estimates they have provided more than 6,000 masks for East Texans. Sharman’s Sewing Center is one of dozens of businesses and organizations that have stepped up during the COVID-19 pandemic to shine a positive light in East Texas. “I am just very thankful that we live in such a place,” Dorsey said. “The people here are wonderful. They’re generous. They’re kind. They care about their neighbor.” Realtor Julie Woods also knows that to be true. Woods, owner of Julie Woods and Associates Real Estate Firm, said she’s been overwhelmed by the outpouring of love in the community. Woods recently organized a Hooray for Heroes parade to show appreciation to police, firefighters and first responders. The parade drew more than 400 cars, many decorated with American flags

and patriotic gear, to the Longview Police Department. “It was the most special thing I’ve ever been a part of,” Woods said. “I knew that these people needed encouragement and to have that many people come out to show their appreciation – it was amazing.” The idea was borne out of seeing birthday parades during the COVID-19 pandemic. Through volunteerism with the City of Longview, Woods said she learned Longview firefighters have been on the frontlines testing more than 3,000 people for COVID-19 at area nursing homes and in the jail. “They’ve been the ones going in and visiting with our grandparents when we haven’t been able,” she said. Woods, who has friends in law enforcement, said she wanted to create an event that would allow residents to show their gratitude to first responders for the work they have been doing during the pandemic

and for the work they do everyday in Longview. What she didn’t expect was the volume of donations she would receive from local businesses to show gratitude to police. Copper Tree Retreat donated a one-hour massage and a one-hour facial to all 175 officers in the police department. In total, Woods said, more than $67,000 in goods and services were donated. Volunteers then put together gift baskets to hand out to first responders. Prior to the Hooray for Heroes parade, Woods also provided food to those in need in the community and provided coffee for healthcare workers. “When all of this first started, I wanted to do something to help,” she said. “At the time, a lot of local businesses were hurting, and I wanted to do something to help a business and to help people in need.” She partnered with Coffee Mill to offer coffee to healthcare workers in the spring.

On a designated day, any healthcare worker could visit Coffee Mill, show their badge, and receive a free coffee that Woods would pay for. She estimates about 75 people got coffee that day. Woods also partnered with The Butcher Shop to provide a hamburger meal to anyone in need. At the time, the community had been asked to stay home as much as possible to curb the progression of COVID-19 in the community. Many businesses were offering curbside pickup and inrestaurant dining had been put on hold. Woods emailed a few select people and asked them to look for people in need of a meal. “Unprecedented times call for an unprecedented response. Since our community has been asked to stay home to stem the spread of COVID-19, many of the most vulnerable among us will pay the steepest price. Many others will become collateral damage through this economic slowdown,” she wrote in the email. “While I can’t develop a vaccine or treatment for this virus, I hope a small gesture can contribute to the survival of others.” Anyone could call The Butcher Shop, speak to a manager and give them Woods’ name and they would receive a complimentary meal of a burger, fries and a cookie. The effort was intended to help both The Butcher Shop and those in need. Woods said 130 meals were given out that day.

Tobacco Junction owner Tony Cooper lead a similar effort with his business. Tobacco Junction partnered with El Sombrero, It’ll Do Deli and Dudley’s Cajun Café to provide meals to healthcare workers and first responders. “Mike Kittner (owner of El Sombrero), Dudley Lang (owner of Dudley’s) and Kevin Richardson (owner of It’ll Do Deli) are personal friends of mine. When all of this started, I would see them, and we talked about everything going on. I knew they were hurting,” Cooper said. “The economic hardship they were in really weighed heavily on my conscience. At the same time, I also wanted to do something for members of our community to show appreciation to them.” Cooper came up with the idea to partner with the three restaurants, run a tab for healthcare workers and first responders to have a meal, and Tobacco Junction would pay the cost. In total, Cooper said, they served $45,000 worth of meals. Tobacco Junction did another outreach in Tyler to provide meals to first responders at a choice of Dakota’s Steakhouse, Rick’s on the Square, and Hollytree Country Club. “When everything happened, there were some businesses that continued to do well,” Cooper said. “Consumer commodity products, which are what we sell, did really well. At the end of the day, this was about friends helping friends. I Continued on page 10

News-Journal.com wanted to use the funds that I was still getting to help others.” That’s been the overwhelming message for much of East Texas during the pandemic. Numerous restaurants, churches and organizations have provided meals to healthcare workers. School districts adapted to change and continued to serve meals to students amid the pandemic, with some even delivering meals into neighborhoods on buses. And, numerous people stepped up to the plate to ensure that East Texas had plenty of PPE. Louis Morgan No. 4 gave about 5,000 face masks to first responders during the pandemic, said Shawn Sams, a co-owner of the business. “We try to have a very close relationship with the community, and our first responders are a big piece of that,” Sams said. “We needed to make sure they were able to access patients and be protected. We feel that it’s our responsibility to help take care of our community.” In addition to donating face masks, Louis Morgan No. 4 also partnered with Jucys to provide lunch for local nurses and went to great lengths to find resources for PPE, including face masks, gloves and hand sanitizer, to make sure it was available in Longview. The business also adapted its practices amid the pandemic by offering curbside pickup and free deliveries to ensure that residents could still have access to their needed prescription medications and PPE, Sams said. “I think it’s easier for us to be able to adapt than large businesses and corporations because they have to wait for marching orders to come down from

their corporate office,” he said. “We can make changes in a short amount of time. We’ve got a great staff. Everybody has worked extra hard throughout this process. I’m really proud of Gregg County and Longview and how everybody has responded to this situation. We’re there for the community, and we’re going to do what we can to make sure our community stays safe.” At Sharman’s Sewing Center, Dorsey also wants the community to feel safe. “It’s scary to think about being a nurse and being in that situation and potentially not having PPE,” she said. That’s why providing masks to make anyone feel safer during this time was so important to Dorsey. Sharman’s masks are made from a high-grade cotton, so they are thicker than traditional cotton. They are pleated, have space for a filter, and use ties instead of elastic at the recommendation of local healthcare professionals, Dorsey said. Dorsey doesn’t accept money for the face masks that Sharman’s provides, but sometimes people donate money anyway. Those donations are then used to purchase more supplies to make more masks for other people, she said. The Sharman’s staff uses an assembly line technique to make the masks. Additionally, Sharman’s has been blessed by its customers who have made masks or donated supplies back to the store for others to create face masks, Dorsey said. She is proud of the work everyone has been able to do together during this time. “We all need to come together,” Dorsey said. “This is about what we can do to make our community and this situation a little bit better.”

The first thing you notice at Roughneck Donut Shop as soon as you stop in is the Fresh aroma of the wonderful donuts hand made with love. It’s an honor to be voted as One of the Best in East Texas for best Donut Shop! Come see us today for the BEST donuts in town!

Walker Manor sits in the Historic Main Street District of Gladewater, Texas, with its red brick streets, also known as the Antique Capital of East Texas. It is within walking distance of shops, restaurants, a museum, bookstore, and the famous Gladewater Opry. We hold many surprises and the “road less traveled” begins here with quaint porches, spring time blossoms and summer’s gorgeous hydrangeas. We offer tours, high tea, and lunch by appointment.

Wild Honey Creamery is the collaboration of Macy Bannert and Sarah Ward in Longview, Tx. These mommas focus on sourcing the best ingredients as close to East Texas as they can get. What was the result? Some of the freshest, creamiest, melt-inyour-mouth delicious ice cream flavors on the planet. Is that too high of a calling? We don’t think so. Try for yourself.
