WKES Cares

The WKE family is stronger together. It is important now, more than ever before to check on each other, support each other and communicate if there are needs. We are all in high gear moving at fast paces, but we are never too busy to hear from you. Our doors are always open.


We wish Deborah Briggs' husband a speedy recovery after his surgery.


Congratulations to Jennifer McPherson as she welcomes her new baby niece.


We are thinking of Frieda Foxworth and her family in the death of her aunt.

I have been married for 20 years. My husband Bryan and I have 2 children ~ Jackson who is 16 and Chloe who is 14. Our children are our pride and joy. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, reading, camping, going to the lake, going to the beach, and watching my kids play sports - my son plays basketball while Chloe plays guitar and photography. We also really enjoy going to Clemson to watch football – GO TIGERS!!!
