An old friend called me a few weeks ago to say she had just attended a performance of “To Kill A Mockingbird” at Atlanta’s Fox Theater. Then she added that Mary Badham, better known as Scout in the film, played the role of Mrs. Dubose in this live performance. I was immediately swept back to October 2010 when Ms. Badham spent four days in Eatonton!

The Grand Opening of the new exhibit took place at the regular “Sunday At The Museum” event on April 7th. The community was invited to hear a short presentation in the auditorium before the unveiling of the Old School History Museum “Sports Wall of Fame” exhibit and a chance to meet some of the Hall of Famers and their families.

Tom and I first met Martha Warren when she and her husband Herb joined our Sunday School class.  Soon after, they joined the volunteer team of Docents at the Old School History Museum. They were dedicated museum workers…always there rain or shine…giving tours and volunteering where needed.   They would become dear and treasured friends.
