Got to go back to @AversboroElem today and give a graduation speech to the 5th graders! As usual, I told some jokes… and as usual, no one laughed 😅🤪 But seeing those kids again filled my heart. So proud of them! #Owl4Life

@uncwbb @WellsFargo I can’t understand why Lexi, Indya, and Makdeng were taken out of the game with 4 mins left for some reserves who hadn’t played the whole 2nd half! I don’t get it 🤷🏾‍♂️

@tamaragray04 Aw no way! Such a small world! She was truly such a special and gifted teacher! I loved her class and there was never a dull moment in there lol! Being an impactful educator must run in the family!

@_andrewcarter Your as line was sublime. "all around was endless decimation, debris piles and reminders that a lot of things would be different. Yet Helene reinforced that some things never change. That the spirit of a place and its people can outlast even the worst of storms. 🥲

[Orlando Dobbin, Jr. @DobbinJr]

@_andrewcarter your piece was amazing. I cried through most of it. The way you weaved together both the pain and suffering with the resilience and hope you found in the mountains brought to life in some small way the experiences of folks in WNC. Thank you

A quick trip to my old stomping grounds @AversboroElem and seeing my former students’ smiling faces and receiving their high fives and fist bumps and being asked one last time “Where is your hair” 😅😂 was just what the doc ordered to fill my heart with so much love and joy! ❤️

[Orlando Dobbin, Jr. @DobbinJr]

@KimberlySGrant @NCresiliencectr @PCS_NC 🥹🥹🥹🥹 thanks Kim! Gonna miss seeing your smiling face every week! I hope you’re doing well! 🤗🤗
