In the midst of losing my beloved partner in life, Angie Francis, this community wrapped its arms around me in ways I’ll never forget. Whether you stopped by, brought a meal, shared a memory, sent a card, or simply offered a hug—I felt every bit of it. Your kindness carried me through some of the hardest days of my life.
Living in a small town like ours means we don’t just live near each other—we live with each other. And during this time of loss, I was reminded of just how special that is. Your support was as steady and comforting as the tide, and I will always be grateful.
With all my appreciation,
Robert (Bud) Carriles Jr.
Community SOS
Hello All,
The Chamber sent an email stating that, due to resources, the Port O’Connor Boat and Fishing Expo will not be held this year.
Can we as a community help them to help us?
We all depend on the chamber; if they need help, I will help find a solution.
Please flood the chamber with requests to help keep the show, which is an excellent asset to the community.
Thank you
