 Santa knows where to find all the best and hottest smartphones just in time to make this Christmas better and bigger than ever. Better service, bigger savings, that's today's Appalachian Wireless. A 95-year-old woman was the talk of the town this morning as she was picked up by Floyd County Sheriff's Deputies in a police cruiser and taken to the Sheriff's Department. One may think, what on earth could this sweet woman do to get taken in by police? Today, Gertrude Tyson wasn't brought in for crime, it was to celebrate her birthday. Birthday to you, happy birthday, sister Tyson, happy birthday to you. Check on a senior today was implemented by the Floyd County Sheriff's Office roughly eight months ago. The coast program allows a volunteer with the Sheriff's Office to call to check on elderly residents who don't have family in the area. If the senior doesn't answer two consecutive phone calls, the Sheriff's Department will send someone to check on them. I'm a senior citizen too, and I've been retired for quite a while. It gets me out of the house. These senior citizens that I call, they'll say, your call is the only call that we get during the day, and we wait for you to call. Sister Tyson is the oldest senior participating in the coast program in Floyd County. We just got to thinking, if they don't have anybody calling, checking on them, if they don't have anybody maybe going by and checking on them, they ain't going to be really celebrating a birthday or a special occasion. During today's surprise party, cake, refreshments, and presents were shared with Sister Tyson. I love all of you. In Preston's Burg, Shelby Porter, EKB News.
