Today, the Florence Police Department recognized Isabella O’Rear, Emma Pierce, and John Rice for their heroic actions that helped save the life of a child during a recent emergency.

When seconds mattered most, Isabella safely removed the child from the water and administered CPR, Emma quickly coordinated the emergency response and ensured 911 was contacted, and John activated the emergency action plan, retrieved lifesaving equipment, and assisted with care until EMS arrived.

Their courage, quick thinking, and teamwork made a life-saving difference. Please join us in congratulating these outstanding individuals for their extraordinary actions and commitment to helping others. 💙👏

Thank you to the first responders, fellow merchants and other good Samaritans who jumped in to help after a driver accidentally drove into Dottie Jewel on The Square this afternoon.

APD was immediately contacted, someone comforted and prayed with the driver, responders and city officials checked on the driver and building, and the store is receiving help to board up the front.

The driver went by ambulance to the hospital to get checked out, and thankfully, no one in the store was injured.

The power of social media connections can make a real difference.

Recently, we were tagged multiple times in a Facebook post recognizing a citizen's interaction with one of our officers, Officer Cook.

Officer Cook responded to a serious motorcycle accident on Thursday, June 4, and remained on scene to provide steady support during a highly stressful moment. He assisted in locating the victim's emergency contact, helped facilitate a phone call so family could be notified and communicated clearly about the situation and hospital destination.

We're grateful when community members take the time to share experiences like this. It's a reminder of the everyday responsibility our officers carry: showing up, staying present and helping people navigate the unexpected.

As of this morning, I have now lost 46% of my peak body weight, which was 292 pounds. That translates to 134 pounds gone!

From the very beginning, this journey has about health. It has been about being here for my family, having the energy to do what I love, and recognizing that taking care of ourselves matters.

If your body has been sending warnings, please listen and take steps to change direction. Small decisions repeated over time can completely change the course of your life.

Some bonds are special. Some are rare. The bond shared by twin sisters Bobbie Rodgers and JoAnn Mann is both.

Today, these remarkable sisters are celebrating their 90th birthday marking nine decades of life, love, and memories together.

Their story has been extraordinary from the very beginning. Not only did they share a birthday, they also shared a double wedding day, beginning a lifetime journey side by side. Living just one house apart, Bobbie and JoAnn raised their families together, creating a closeness that has stretched across generations.

Family gatherings, vacations, celebrations, and everyday moments have all been woven into a lifetime of sisterhood and friendship. Through every season of life, they have remained each other’s constant source of love, encouragement, and support.

Ninety years is a blessing. Ninety years spent sharing life with your twin sister is something truly extraordinary.

Happy 90th Birthday to Bobbie Rodgers and JoAnn Mann. May your special day be filled with the same joy, laughter, and love that you have shared with your families and with each other for nearly a century.

This community spotlight is brought to you by J. Calvert Farms, proudly supporting stories and the people who make our communities strong.
