Native born to Georgia, a little better than a half century ago, to an exceptionally loving family with Episcopal roots going back farther than I can see was only the first of the blessings God has bestowed upon me. With one set of grandparents living on a private fishing lake and theother living in Sautee Nacoochee growing up with a devout love of nature and all her bounty.A passion I have been fortunate enough to share and pass on to my two wonderful children Scott jr and Savannah along with anyone else brave enough to travel offshore or to the woods with us. I am a master certified Lincoln / Ford technician with aspirations of starting an independent operation in the next two years. Two years ago this June Father Tim performed the ceremony joining myself with my best friend Leigh Ann in marriage officially making her part of the greatest blessing God has bestowed upon me, my family. This act of love and service from Tim, brought us back to St. Mary and Martha’s and with each day our family grows ever widening with the loving souls we find here. It is my great honor to serve God and this his family in any way I can.
