The collective heart of our community is broken tonight as we mourn the passing of one of Winterville's favorite sons and one of my dearest and best friends, George Chandler.
Flags will be flown at half staff in the City to honor his service to this country and to our community.
Sincerely,
Dodd I. Ferrelle, Mayor
