Editor’s Note:  As a long time Fernandina resident, Mary Agnes White has shown her love for our city and its history as a community activist.  She and her husband Bob, were instrumental in the 1970’s revitalization efforts that transformed Centre Street and many historic homes into what is now a nationally recognized Historic District.  An early tree hugger, she saved the majestic oak tree that still graces the parking lot at Fred’s.  She is frequently seen at Sandy Bottoms howling at the full moon!  Mary Agnes is celebrating her 90th birthday with family and we extend the warmest of birthday greetings.

David Lee Roberts grew up in Fernandina Beach, and is the son of former mayor Beano Roberts. For 23 years he has lived in Orlando, Florida and is employed by WKMG-TV6 (CBS) as a Newscast Director. To see more of David’s photos click on www.dlrobertsphotography.com
