Literacy Volunteers of Upshur County (LVUC) mourns the loss of Carolyn Stotts, a founding member who was instrumental in the formation and mission of LVUC. She was pivotal in forming our organization and was deeply respected in community and a great and beloved teacher to her students. Ms. Stotts passed away at the grand age of 100 years old in Missouri, far away from West Virginia and the folks that remember her good work here. She lived a good life and will be mourned by family, friends and colleagues...all those touched by her and who loved and respected her. Her work lives on in LVUC's mission to provide free and confidential tutoring services here in Upshur County. R.I.P. Carolyn, you are remembered and missed by all those whose lives you touched. To the family and friends who loved her and were blessed by the sharing of her life, we offer our deepest condolences.

I hope it's never too late to comment on a great event! March 18th, the Upshur County Library hosted by the Upshur County Family Resource Network (UCFRN) held its Annual Book Swap. The traffic was steady throughout the event and folks got to swap their books for those offered at the event. The children enjoyed signing up for prizes, getting free candies, stickers, and refreshments. And, after the event was over, Literacy Volunteers of Upshur County was gifted a ton of books. To be sure, the public will see new selections at our Little Free Library (located before our office at 88 W Main St., Buckhannon), and at various events throughout the coming months (i.e. Children's Fair, Jr Royalty Parade, etc.). Additionally, these donations will be added to the wonderful selection of books we offer at our Book Sale events (dates TBA later)! IF you get the chance to attend the Library's Book Swap next year, and OF COURSE, The Literacy Book Sales (major fundraisers for Literacy this year), mark your calendars and come on down, guaranteed to put a smile on your faces!!!
