I want to thank the thousands of people that voted for me over the past 3 weeks! I promise that my team and I will give you our very best in the coming four years.

Tomorrow, Tuesday 11/5, is Election Day.

Towns County, you’re on a roll with 72% having already voted early. If you haven’t voted yet, please vote tomorrow! How close to 100% can we get? I’m running unopposed this term, but I am asking for your vote

10/15/2024

Early voting starts tomorrow, Tuesday, Oct 15. You may vote early daily at the election office next to the courthouse from 9-5P. I am running unopposed, but still would like to ask for your vote. Often when voting, there are some races with names that I do not know. Many of you know me, but for those that don't, I am a wife, mom, small business owner and almost a grandma (November this year). I grew up in north Georgia in a large loving family, have 3 amazing adult children and 2 adult stepsons. I have lived here in Towns County for the past 12 years and never plan for that to change. I have been with the Coroner's office for 11 years, with the last 4 years as your elected Coroner. Many people tell me they don't know how I do this work and certainly do not understand how I could enjoy it; while it is very hard at times, the families I serve during their hardest days makes it all worth it. My goals stay the same year after year: to treat any family whom we serve with compassion, to have my office respond to all requests for our presence promptly and professionally, and to make a thorough and thoughtful investigation of every case.

You did it! I want to thank every single person who had their hands in this campaign and those who voted, your voice was heard. I want to especially thank my family and friends who have been impacted by my campaign, I promise I will start cooking large meals again and be more available for summer activities; I love you all! The time, money, hard work and prayers of my supporters are what got us here tonight. My heart is overwhelmed with gratefulness. To my opponent and his supporters, you have my word that I will serve you just as diligently as those who supported me. God has had His hands on my life and lead me to this day, he blessed me with amazing people all around me and he has calmed my heart many nights. It is because of Him that I am here. I am honored to be YOUR next Coroner. I love you guys!!! ❤️

Anyone listening to WJUL I’d like to apologize for screaming when I won! I’m the only person who has the luck of being live on the radio when getting the results!!!

I would like to also thank my opponent Harold Copeland for the gracious congratulatory phone call!!

It’s Election Day; if you haven’t already voted, come on out. Lines aren’t long and are moving swiftly.

I begin my day leaving you with the person who knows me more than I know myself at times! If your dearest friend doesn’t know you; who truly does?? Life has thrown us plenty of curve balls but God has blessed us even when we can’t see it. I’m proud of her; I’m proud she is my friend and sister. I’m proud she is not just my cheerleader in life she is my “get yourself together girl” friend. I can honestly say my family wouldn’t be the same without her. I love you chick! Now let’s knock this out of the park, a touchdown in the last few seconds and I’ll leave it here with sports because those the terms you have taught me. (Also you could have shared some height; you’re a good foot taller than me!)

I’m so thankful for to have Cassandra as part of our work family and as a friend! We are not just people who share a small office in the back of the funeral home; we are family. We grieve together, cry together and laugh together! I truly appreciate your support!

Terry and Corrie are some of the most gentle and kind people I’ve ever known. There is not doubt they love their family and there is no doubt they love me. We have walked some really hard roads over the years and that’s what makes their friendship so important to me. I’m honored to have their votes and their support.
