Councilman Rosebrock received the Carolina Recycling Association's Political Leader of the Year Award this year for his work on behalf of recycling and the environment. He and his wife arrived in Greenville the night before the awards breakfast and went to dinner with a group of us. He was with at least seven loud and crazy women recyclers, and he not only held his own, he fit right in.

The next morning at the awards breakfast, he was fabulous! When he won the award, he got up and made the most wonderful remarks! He said things like how blessed he was to live in such a beautiful place and that we needed to take care of it.

Councilman Rosebrock reminds me of an elected official from days past, one who cares more about doing the right thing and serving the people than himself and what's in it for him. I'm so glad I had the chance to meet him and his wife, and I'm ever more glad that my friend Carolyn has such a great supporter in Dorchester County!

Thank you very much for the kind remarks about my father-in-law, Richard Rosebrock. We are very proud of him and agree with you…it is great to have a man of integrity and Christian values in political office.
I married his youngest son, Bobby, and am proud that Bobby, his brother, Blan and sister, Lyn share the same characteristics. I appreciate what you do, too. Keep up the good work.

The pictures and the article are great. Grace & I enjoyed being with you all Wednesday. I am the envy of my friends when I tell them I dined with seven women. How can I top that? I have been honored by you nice people.
Thanks, May God Bless you.
