Dear Editor,

Our visit to the Chilton County area St. Patrick’s Day weekend was an example of Southern hospitality at its best. The new friends we made at The Rose Restaurant, the Holiday Inn Express, Petals from the Past, Thorsby First Baptist Church and Collins Chapel Baptist Church made us feel as if we were royalty.

I encourage your readers to support their local communities and merchants. We were very blessed to be there.

Kay Carlo, Winfield
