Filling Laurinburg with flowers - Laurinburg Exchange

Over the years Leggette said she’s given flowers to people all over Laurinburg to Raeford and has even made it outside the area in places like Wilmington. “A man once asked to buy some from me and I said ‘they’re not for sale you take them and when they bloom in two or three years if I’m still living,” Leggette said. “We have around 75 almost in the blooming stage.” She added that the flowers themselves are very sturdy and invasive plants that are hard to kill. Once a car ran off the road and into the yard knocking over the plants and despite an attempt of replanting the plants died. So it was cleaned up but the plant came back the next year despite everything. The gardenias are also tough as the plants have survived several storms like Hurricane Florence and have stayed rooted in place while trees have been knocked down. Despite all the success with the gardenia’s Leggette insists that she doesn’t know much about flowers but enjoys working with the gardenias and giving them to people. “I feel like I’m leaving a little part of me in Laurinburg,” Leggette said. “And I hope that it makes people happy to see them.” Reach Katelin Gandee at 910-506-3171 or at [email protected] .neFileBlock { margin-bottom: 20px; } .neFileBlock p { margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px; } .neFileBlock .neFile { border-bottom: 1px dotted #aaa; padding-bottom: 5px; padding-top: 10px; } .neFileBlock .neCaption { font-size: 85%; } ...

Police: Woman arrested after gift cards stolen from Fayetteville cancer patients

The thief or thieves made off with more than $900 in gift cards to local businesses, such as Chris's Steak House on Raeford Road, where someone used a card for $100 in food."It hurts because we love our patients like they're our family members," said April Bratcher, physician office manager at the cancer treatment center. "When they come into the cancer center, we love on them, and to have someone steal something from the cancer patients is very heartless."Fayetteville police initially said they wanted to question a couple in the case, but they later said they didn't need to speak with the couple, and no charges were filed against them.Some of the stolen gift cards have been replaced by merchants who found out what happened, but others could not be replaced, officials said."The money that we raise goes back to our cancer patients for our Ribbon Walk, and we use those funds to help with mortgages, give gas vouchers, (pay) light bills, utility bills, anything that they need while they're getting treatment," Bratcher said."We're trying to help our patients every day to get through this as easily as possible. They don't need issues like bills to pay or medications to buy," said Michelle Gereghty, a nurse at the cancer center.The gift baskets will be auctioned at noon Feb. 9.More On This... (WRAL.com)
