"George was a hard worker all his life. I have heard stories told of how he would walk to work, wading through creeks, and in the winter time that didn't stop him... he came home with ice frozen to his clothes. He was a good fiddle player too. Many people from Shannon County and surrounding counties may remember George having the ability to remove warts! Many people came to him to have their warts removed. The doctor in Summersville, Dr. Lavere Hampton even brought his son to George to have him remove warts on his son. You could say I am biased when it comes to George Sechrest. To me he was the greatest man who ever walked this good earth, because you see, he was my Pawpaw and his memory will forever live in my heart." ~ a Granddaughter |
