Every day, a positive story from around our district reminds me just how special this community is. Shirley Jones of Pitt County embodies the perfect example of a terrific story by proving it’s never too late to follow your dreams. At 84 years old, Mrs. Jones will graduate with her GED in just a few short months. Thank you, Mrs. Jones, for serving as an inspiration to everyone in North Carolina and reminding us that every day is an opportunity to learn something new!
