Last June, I went to the annual Clodfelter Reunion in Troutman and there met John Jolly, a local teacher, who’s been collecting Troutman memorabilia for a long time. He had a very nice display there of some of his finds, including many old photos. I told him that one of the things I’d love to get [...]

Troutman Library Update

Went to the monthly meeting of the Friends for the Troutman Library. Of course, we’re all excited at the prospect of opening that wonderful new library building and seeing it full of books and people, and we were assured it will open sooner rather than later. The big holdup right now is the Iredell County [...]

This week, we learned of the passing of one the pillars of the Troutman community- Ruth Starks. I first met Ruth when I was 16 and working as the grocery delivery boy for Neil’s Grocery in Troutman. Each week I’d bring the groceries she ordered in an old black Rambler station wagon. I learned a lot [...]

Troutman(s) Back in the Day

Several years ago, I opened and managed a real estate office in Troutman for CENTURY 21 Hecht Realty. I grew up in Troutman so I had a great time getting re-established in the community. In the process of doing that, I was approached by a friend in Troutman who wanted to know if I’d like [...]
Good Food and Conversation in Troutman

My wife, Susan, and I stopped in Troutman on the way home from a family reunion in Clemmons and decided to have dinner at Pellegrino’s Trattoria (family restaurant). I’d had lunch there a couple of times and told Susan that we should have dinner there soon because of the wonderful food and very broad menu. Troutman [...]
Managing Troutman Growth

I grew up in Troutman in the middle of Iredell County and for several years managed a real estate office there for CENTURY 21 Hecht Realty. While doing that, I became involved in forming a local arm of the Greater Statesville Chamber of Commerce. The soft market caused us to close that office, but I [...]

I went to a meeting of Citizens for a Troutman Library on Monday night. I’ve been working with this group for several years. We’re making great progress toward our goal. Fundraising has taken us to around $690,000 toward the total needed of between $1 million and $1.2 million. We hope to get much of the [...]
Back in the Saddle
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged internet, Mooresville, Real Estate, Troutman on October 9, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
For the last several years, I’ve been working on being mainly an employee of Century 21 Hecht Realty instead of an agent. After several years in the business, I was asked to start an internet department for staying in contact with people who called and emailed inquiries to the company. Once that got going, I [...]
