More Fiber In Our Diet

John — Wed, 15 May 2013 21:53:10 +0000

The pace of technology is ever-quickening. Feel like your business is struggling to keep up? We do. Whenever we feel the push of technology we push back. The Groundcrew is installing new fiber optic services to keep up with your needs.

Faster Internet
The Groundcrew is installing fiber services on Thursday, May 16th and upgraded Phone service on Tuesday, May 21st. As a result this may cause some service interruptions. We apologize for any delay but the end result will be worth it.

Thanks

If you don’t ask,
The answer is always no.
If you don’t step forward,
You’re always
In the same place.

Remembering Tommi

John — Tue, 29 Jan 2013 13:44:49 +0000

We’d all like to say a fond “we’ll see you soon” to our friend Tommi Jones. We are so lucky she left us with so much. Always a guiding friend and mentor, she would constantly surprise us with some quirky saying or story that made more sense than we knew at the time. We will miss her more than you can imagine, but she is still here in our everyday conversation and colloquialisms. Thank you Tommi: we were particularly fond of you.

In Memory Of Ed Grady

John — Wed, 12 Dec 2012 15:58:52 +0000

We are deeply sad to report the loss of our dear friend Ed Grady.
Ed died Monday in Columbia, SC.

We always looked forward to visits from Ed. He was so incredibly talented and
brought instant credibility to anything he was cast for. Here is a commercial he voiced for Biltmore estate at Groundcrew.Ed Grady-Biltmore

Probably best known for “Harry” in the Notebook, he was also in many movies and television series, including Dawson’s Creek, Matlock and I’ll Fly Away.

Ed was also my high school humanities teacher. No teacher took more interest in students than Ed. He took Phil Scarboro and I to New York in the 10th grade to pick up Television equipment donated by CBS to our high school. The president of CBS gave us a personal tour and lunch. We rode in the front bench seat of his 1958 pickup truck—I shared the middle with the gear shift. The trip itself could be a movie. An adventure I will never forget. A teacher and a friend I will never forget.
