Make Fred permanent Rose Buddy
A movement is afoot to create a memorial honoring Fred Fearing, the late Rose Buddy, at Elizabeth City’s Mariners’ Wharf park. I think it’s a great idea. More important than that, I think it would help keep those boaters coming our way. Many who witnessed or knew of Fearings’ rose-peddling, wine and cheese antics will want to touch the sacred stone, metal or whatever just to say they had. Let’s get behind this. Contact Elizabeth City Finance Director Sarah Blanchard, P.O. Box 404, Elizabeth City, N.C. 27909-0404.
