Just a
Thought
By Bob Chute
WOW, we are on the verge of some
very exciting changes in our lives...
First of all, grandchild #7 - Emily Ruth Lear - will be arriving on
February 13th, being heartily welcomed by her parents, Kelly and Brad,
sister Mallory, along with brother
William...and assorted grandparents,
aunts, uncles, cousins and friends,
of course!
And, on a lesser note, we are planning a new look for the next issue of
the Paso Robles Magazine!
Our March 2014 keepsake issue will sprout a glossy cover, larger
photos and a cleaner updated look
throughout with the beginnings of
our special Historical Paso Robles
section appearing every month in
2014...kicking off in March as the
City of Paso Robles ‘Official’ 125th
Anniversary Publication!
That’s the Quasquicentennial
officially celebrated on March 11...
our own Chuck Desmond has been
keeping you up-to-speed on all the
City activities planned for the year,
along with 125th souvenirs you
just gotta have! Somethin’ like this
doesn’t happen very often!
Exciting stuff, we are so proud to
be recognized for this honor. The
special New Year’s Eve bash kicking
off the Quasqui festivities at the Paso
Robles Inn was outstanding, along
with the glow in the dark games in
the park and the awesome fireworks
display at midnight! Congratulations
Quasqui committee, a job well done!
Back on track, looking at the content of this issue, we have some interesting articles for you this month.
First of all, a hearty tip of the
ol’ PRM cap to Randy and Nancy
Flamm for being named Roblans of
the Year. What a special honor for
two very deserving, very involved
Roblans. Read all about ‘em on page
16. Then, follow that up with the special honor, Beautification of the Year,
bestowed on Mike Rawister for the
amazing transformation he accomplished at the Paso Robles Golf Club.
If you haven’t seen it yet...go! You’ll
be amazed at the difference.
Rawister and the Flamms were
honored during the Paso Robles
Chamber of Commerce Annual Dinner, ‘Puttin’ on the Ritz’ Gala event
held, this year, at the Broken Earth
Winery. It was a fun evening, really a
kick to see everyone all dressed up in
period outfits of the 1920’s!
We also have Chris Weygandt Alba’s interesting piece on the sea lions
at Piedras Blanca, as the Last Word
on page 51.
There’s so very much more, and
being Valentine’s Day is this month
we have a listing of area Valentine
Celebrations, by Melissa Chavez, on
page 12, along with a special love story about the 42 year marriage of Jerry
and Gaye Perney who share a love of
music and teaching, by Judy Bedell,
on page 14.
I could wax poetic about this special time for couples but suffice to
say: Gentlemen, this is where our true
colors can shine....and we need to get
creative. Do I hear an ‘amen’?
Got it guys? Get real about this.
By the time you read this, Rhoda
will be recovering from back surgery
in late January, please keep her in your
prayers. We were married October
28, 2005 and over the years we’ve had
our ups and downs, like every couple,
along with thought-provoking discussions about our love and the loves with
our deceased spouses that were cut
short by cancers.
We celebrate our ever-evolving life
together and look forward to special
times ahead of us.
Please, fellow Roblans, don’t miss
this opportunity. Treat each day with
loved ones as the special gift it is...but
especially on Valentine’s Day.
So, have you hugged them today?
Do it, please...now.
And again. Good, very good.
Happy Valentine’s Day, Paso Robles!
Want to join the festivities?

Once the employees of IQMS learned that they
could sign the letter nominating their employers
and owners of the company, Randy and Nancy
Flamm, for the Chamber of Commerce Roblan
of the Year, the line from the lobby’s front desk
went out the door! With the recent announcement, the Flamms were overwhelmed with the
honor especially since it came from the extraordinary support from their employees. Randy says,
“We were very humbled by the announcement. It’s
amazing. We’ve been very blessed with the huge
success of our company and our people. We’re in a
very large industry. We’re big for around here, but
comparatively, we are very small. We love what we
do and we have literally hundreds of people trying
to purchase IQMS every year. We want to see how
big we can become and part of that is giving back.
We’re very profitable which makes it easy to give
back to the community.
“Our main focus is education and giving our local
kids the ability to be productive in their lives. Nancy
and I believe that what our country needs for the future starts with the kids. That’s why we are so happy
to support the youth in FFA, 4-H and Skills USA.
We love to hire them as they come off the farm or
ranch because they understand the work ethic.”
IQMS began like many other large high-tech
companies. “Nancy and I met in the Bay Area
while working for the same company in the late
70s when micro computers were just coming out.
We built the software to make our jobs easier in the
manufacturing realm.
“In 1978, I belonged to the Homebrew Computer Club where Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak
got their start. Obviously, they did quite a bit better
than I did! Back then, I was using micro computers
to monitor industrial equipment.”
While working for General Electric, a conversation over dinner with clients who were dealing with
similar problems in their manufacturing company
prompted the eventual creation of IQMS. Randy
recalls telling them, “I wrote the software that was
so great that we’d take long lunches while the software did the work! They said, “Why don’t you write
that software for us? I was very happy at GE and
politely declined, but they kept after me. I agreed
to write software for
them, but sell it too.
Nancy and I began
that project parttime in August 1988
while we were still working. The word got around so
we quit our jobs in 1989, got a second mortgage on
the house and started IQMS in our living room.
“We struggled for a while but quickly figured
out that we could live anywhere. Nancy didn’t care
for the Los Angeles area and didn’t want to move
back to the Bay Area, so we picked somewhere in
between.” In the early 80s, a business trip brought
Randy to Paso. He adds, “We had breakfast at Vic’s
Café and I said ‘This is a wonderful place! We were
in suits and ties!’ Larry Eastwood is a great guy! We
settled here in 1993 and bought a small ranch near
Lake Nacimiento. Our first office was off Vendels
Circle with only a handful of us. Now we have 120
employees here, so we’ve grown up in Paso.
“Since 2009 we’ve enjoyed a high growth rate;
in fact we’ve over doubled in size.” IQMS provides
Enterprise Resource Planning or ERP for manufacturing companies with software for every function from quality control, inventory, time clocks,
scheduling, payroll and general ledger. Flamm
adds, “Our main clientele is automotive parts and
medical device companies. The majority of our customers are in the United States. We have offices
in China, the United Kingdom, Sweden, Canada,
Mexico City, the Chicago area and expanding to
the Charlotte, North Carolina area.”
Randy and Nancy enjoy their success and personal endeavors with such a genuine spirit and a wonderful sense of humor! To further support FFA and
4-H, the Flamms participate in the Mid-State Fair
livestock auction and invite their employees to bring
their coolers to work and load up their freezers with
ooh-la-la!

fresh meat. Randy smiles and
says, “It stimulates freezer sales
too! We also allow the employees who don’t have an agricultural background to feed our
bulls!” Since the Flamms also
run a cattle operation with
their ranches near the lake and
Cambria, the bulls spend their
off time on acreage adjacent to
IQMS. The employees enjoy an outdoor break in the
pasture and the bulls appreciate the special attention...especially a carrot now and then! Randy adds,
“The cow and calf operation has been my hobby for
the last 20 years. Nancy’s latest hobby is the Cambria
Pub and Steakhouse. She’s doing very well.” Naturally, Nancy uses all IQMS software for the back end
operation of the restaurant.
When the call for service arises, the employees of IQMS also eagerly pitch in with volunteer
hours or donations to local charities and nonprofit organizations to include AYSO, North
County Women’s Shelter, Food Bank of SLO,
Woods Humane Society, United Way and Toys
for Tots. Fundraising events for walkers, runners
and cyclists are popular; fostering the IQMS
team spirit. Several employees serve on the
Board of Directors of Skills USA and Softec.
Marketing Director Daniele Fresca proposed the
Adopt-a-Park program to Randy. She adds, “Of
course, Randy said ‘Go Big or Go Home! Let’s do
the Downtown City Park!’ With between 5 to 15
employee volunteers every other week, we pick up
trash and report any repairs.” Randy adds, “We get
paid back too. It’s such a feel good thing.”
Through their kindness and generosity, Randy
and Nancy Flamm are setting the example for our
youth, the IQMS employees and the community
at large by embracing a very simple, yet profound
belief. In Randy’s own words, “Instead of what can
I take; it should be what can I give?”
Thank you, Randy and Nancy for such a remarkable commitment to our community!

The Beautification Award goes to
The Paso Robles Golf Club
By Millie Drum
Roblans Randy and Nancy Flamm
and Mike Rawister share the same
fundamental philosophy. They’re able
to make a great contribution to the
community and take a pride in doing
so with grace and humility. While the
community has supported the Paso
Robles Golf Club over the years, the
facility has been a “diamond in the
rough” for a very long time. With a
vision and the insight to surround
himself with the finest professionals in construction and design, Mike
Rawister has created not only an attraction for the locals; the club is becoming a destination for golfers and
visitors traveling to the Central Coast.
With the announcement of the
award, Mike says, “We were very excited about it! After over two years of
renovation, it’s nice to be recognized
especially since there are many other
worthy projects as well, so we are very
honored. The ‘finish’ was the most enjoyable and thrilling to see the creation
of a place that is aesthetically pleasing

Georgia Brown Nutrition Program
Art, Nutrition and So Much More
By Meagan Friberg
Students at Georgia Brown Elementary School
are gaining knowledge on nutrition and fitness
thanks to a group of volunteers and community activists spearheaded by Laura Herzberg, a
pediatrician with Community Health Centers.
What started as an art and nutrition idea has
blossomed into what organizers hope will be an
annual event for all schools in the district.
“This started as a little idea of mine to teach
kids about nutrition and to get some posters for
my office for teaching about obesity,” Herzberg
said. “Then, I thought, it would be nice to bring
this out to all the schools in the district as
a nutrition and art project.”
Hoping to gain momentum and support,
Dr. Herzberg presented her idea to Georgia
Brown Elementary Principal Ellalina Emrich
Keller and was overwhelmed by her response.
“She said ‘This needs to be much bigger
– a month-long nutrition curriculum,” Herzberg
said.
From the two dynamos’ brainstorming session
through the completion of last year’s inaugural
program, Herzberg was “totally impressed” as
volunteers responded with excitement, embraced
the idea and became involved. Herzberg and
Keller continually receive positive feedback for
their efforts from students and parents alike.
“They especially like the take home recipe,”
Herzberg said, referring to an in-class portion
of the curriculum, “and the kids love the cooking
portion – many are still eating vegetables!”
Any program that combines kids’ artwork
with getting them to like vegetables has to be a
winner, right?
It sure seems that way and, with support from
a gaggle of volunteers, Herzberg and her team are
repeating the month-long curriculum through
the end of February. Sponsored in part by the
UC CalFresh Nutrition Education Program,
it kicked off January 21 with initial lessons and
presentations.

Georgia Brown Elementary School
Gregg Wangard, head chef at Marisol at The
Cliffs, returned to prepare a fresh-cooked lunch
for the students, staff and volunteers – 600 in all
– on January 28 with assistance from his wife,
Kelly Wangard, executive chef and manager at
Summerwood Winery & Inn. Cal Poly studentathletes chatted with students before heading out
to the playground for a bit of physical activity.
CalFresh representatives gave a presentation
to parents on January 29 and introduced a free
cooking class to run concurrently with the students’ program. Chef Rod Blackner, Paso Robles
Food Service and Culinary Arts Academy Director, conducted a brief seminar and offered training
for parents involved with classroom cooking
demonstrations. He brought offerings from a
full salad bar – a crowd favorite, Keller said.
Various community partners were on hand to
answer questions and offer assistance.
A week-long food group curriculum, based on
the USDA One Great Plate model, will feature a
butternut squash soup recipe. Students will take
home the recipe and a bag of ingredients so they
may cook at home with their family.
“It empowers children when they take their skills
and cook at home – it becomes a family tradition,”
Keller said, adding that all produce for demonstrations, class lessons, and take-home ingredients was
donated by local farmers. “We have amazing family
and community support that allows us to do this.”
New this year – activities presented by Kennedy
Club Fitness and video documentation courtesy of
the Paso High video production class; donations
are needed to purchase pedometers for 3-5 grade
classrooms. Additional community supporters
include: CHC, the Food Bank, and the Georgia
Brown PTSA.
As for the art portion, many Georgia Brown
students, including Dr. Herzberg’s two boys, are
patients in her office; she said they delight in seeing
their posters adorn the pediatric clinic walls. The
winning class of the poster contest will be treated
to a pizza party – Blackner will return to help
students prepare pizzas using fresh ingredients.
“This is an ambitious project, but it has been
extremely gratifying,” said Herzberg. “I have been
totally overwhelmed by the enthusiasm of volunteers and donors and the community support.”

As Paso’s population expanded, so

We rely on this security blanket without thinking too much about how it
works. We just “know it’s there and hope

community, seasoned pros who comprise a tight-knit team and have been
at their posts for many years. They
work four 10-hour shifts which gives
them enough time off to always be
fresh and alert which is exactly what
we want when we need their help.
In a heartbeat, the team members can
sort out an incoming call and deploy
the Emergency Services Team (Fire
Department) or the police. A slug of
routine calls (not 9-1-1 variety) also
come to them so they direct the request or situation to the right department. But, make no mistake, anything that threatens life or property is
tops on the list. And, the list is
long! On average, it is just short of
100 calls per day that require “rightnow intervention and action.”
To explain a bit more, here’s what
happens when someone dials 9-1-1.
If the call is made from a land-line in
the city, the operators can tell exactly
where the call originated. That’s important if the caller was unable to speak or give
the location. That same emergency call made
on a cell-phone, however, doesn’t provide
a physical location of the call’s origin. Cellphone 9-1-1 calls go to the CHP which then
dispatches whatever is necessary. This could
mean the CHP calls the fire or the police
departments and that time lost could make
a difference. This alone is an excellent reason
to hang on to the land line. Outside the city
limits, land-line phone calls go to the Sheriff ’s
Department, which then dispatches whatever
is needed based on the caller’s location.
With 30,000 local residents and an army of
visitors and tourists every day this is fertile soil
for every kind of emergency one could imagine.
If, and only if, you need immediate help, call
9-1-1. For routine business, call 237-6464. It’s
a great team that is there to assist.

The Namesake discussion
The public is invited to join

The Namesake, on Thursday,
Feb. 20, at 7 p.m. in the Library
conference room.
The Namesake takes the Ganguli family from their traditionbound life in Calcutta through
their fraught transformation into
Americans. Named for a Russian
writer by his Indian parents in
memory of a catastrophe years
before, Gogol Ganguli knows
only that he suffers the burden
of his heritage as well as his odd,
antic name.
Lahiri brings great empathy to
Gogol as he stumbles along the firstgeneration path,
strewn with conflicting loyalties,
comic detours, and
wrenching love affairs. With penetrating insight, Lahiri reveals
not only the defining power of
the names and expectations bestowed upon us by our parents,
but also the means by which
we slowly, sometimes painfully,
come to define ourselves. The
Namesake is a fine-tuned, intimate, and deeply felt novel of
identity.
The Paso Robles City Library
is located at 1000 Spring Street
and is open Monday – Friday
10 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Saturday

San Miguel
Reflections
By Lynne Schmitz
The fourteenth annual Lillian
Larsen School BUZZ Marathon
will be held on Saturday, February 15 on the Camp Roberts
Army National Guard Reservation in a long-standing partnership with the San Miguel School
District. Beginning times for the
marathon and half-marathon are
at 8:30 a.m., walkers at 6:30 a.m.,
the 5K at 8:45 a.m. and childrenunder-12 mile run at 9:30 a.m.
This is a great meditative run
through hills and meadows of the
Salinas River Valley. The course
starts at 750’, rising gently to
1250’ going out and back. There
are wildlife spectators, spectacular views, training research sites
and porta-potties every 2 miles.
Volunteers do all the work.
Packets will be available for
pickup between 3 and 6 p.m. the
day before the race at the school
gym at 1601 L Street. Packets
may be picked up the day of the
race from 6:30 a.m. until 10 minutes before starting at the Camp
Roberts gym. Camp Roberts is
two miles north of San Miguel
on Highway 101. Be sure to have
personal identifications and current license and insurance papers
for vehicles.
The name of the race is derived
from the Lillian Larsen Hornets
who benefit from proceeds of
the race. It funds the school athletic programs, which students
would not have otherwise. This
year new volleyball jerseys are
included on the list. In 201213, sport expenses totaled nearly
$11,000, with approximately
$800 paid out-of-pocket. Lillian

district as a substitute teacher in
1980. Along with her regular
duties she has spent countless
hours each year as advisor for
extra-curricular programs, including CORE and AVID as
well as coaching the teams. To
put it simply, she loves to teach,
she loves her students and works
tirelessly to improve and enrich

ROUND TOWN
County Perspective
Climate Calamity: “Call it obsession, call it fanatical...” goes Jars of
Clay’s Coffee Song, but our friends
probably call ours, addiction. They
know my wife and I cherish our together time over that magic ebony
beverage, perhaps a little too much.
Sadly though, we were too late.
When the coffee chain from the city
named for a Duwamish chief offered
free java for the month with purchase
of a branded travel mug, they sold out
right away. We hesitated too long.
No fears, my frugal wife scored
two on Ebay, for less than the coffee
store was charging. Fifty bucks for
the pair, so by January 12th, we were
in the black, so to speak. Fanatical?
Probably.
The Central Coast basked while
January snow and ice closed the
eastern US. Great Lakes and east
coast residents hunkered inside, far
from roads, knowing skating favors
boots and blades, not Mustangs and
minivans.
At the same time, Argentina and
Australia sweltered in record heat,
naturally out came the armchair
quarterbacks on both sides about
global warming.
San Luis Obispo Supervisors and
rural Paso Robles businesses and
residents must also have pondered
what the environment would throw
at them next as they met to discuss
whether to create a water district, and
whether it would do any good.
Paso Robles, like most of the Salinas Valley, continue to bake under
droughtful skies; rainfall has been
almost nonexistent as California
chalked up the driest year on record. San Luis Obispo County joins
Monterey and Santa Barbara counties now in federally-classified “extreme” drought.
The record comes as no surprise
to Salinas Valley wineries and Hwy
46 corridor residents, many of whom
have had to drill new wells, sometimes twice.
Stakeholders all agree action is
needed, even if they don’t agree on
all the details. What should be done
first? A water district seems to be the
answer. Emergency county ordinances are only a stopgap, most say. Such
a district is the permanent, sensible
water diet strategy.
How do you create one? Residents,
growers and officials were among the
By Bruce Curtis
hundred or so who met at Pear Valley
Winery, January 7th to walk through
the steps. Formation would take about
a year, if all parties work together, to
form a water district, they were told.
Ever wonder how government
grows? Locally, it usually takes place
under the auspices of LAFCO, the
Local Agency Formation Commission, but a water district is something
a bit more complex. Only been one
new water district formed in the past
two decades, so legislation is also
needed.
35th District Assemblyman Katcho Achadjian has said he’d front an
appropriate bill, if and when everyone
agrees they want one. That means
having the Board of Supervisors, on
board, as well.
Quid Pro Quart? A drop here,
a quart there, water savings can add
up, if everyone works at it. Saccharine platitude? Probably, but it sums
what the board of supervisors is doing, near term, to manage meager
groundwater reserves.
When board members leisurely
ambled back into supervisor’s chambers with renewed vigor for the new
year on January 14th, they hoped to
put into motion an irrigated agriculture offset program. While the
name is fancy, goal is simple: create
a system of water credits that allows
farmers to change what they grow
without a net increase in water use,
sustainability.
For rural residents, efficiency is
also the goal, so education will be a
big part of the ag offset program.
The game plan is to have the draft
offset plan finished by March 15,
with final passage of the plan done by
October. That is the hope, but then
some of us hope for a big lottery win.
Panga Pain: One of the most
amusing, if not edifying stories of
2013 has to be the number of light
skiffs bearing drugs hitting the beaches; more than a dozen, from Montana
de Oro to San Simeon. Drug runners
seem to have found a less obtrusive
way to bring illicit drugs ashore, as
border agents get better at busting
ne’er do wells at the border. More
than two dozen suspects are in custody, some after their van went over a
cliff, miraculously without injuries.

The Big Laugh!
are three things in common between
The Big Laugh and my wedding,”
said Lizette. “It’s very expensive.
I have to entertain hundreds of
people. And I hope when I appear,
I don’t pass out!”
Being the show’s producer is just
one facet of this talented gal! As a
comic herself, Lizette has opened
for Jon Lovitz, Dana Carvey and
internet sensation Mrs. Hughes. Her
team of friends turned production
crew mean the world to her. She
adds, “I love reflecting on the Red
Carpet photos taken by our photographer Chris Hangos. He really
captures the energy and excitement
from every show!
“We have the World’s Funniest
Cop, Mike Mancini, headlining the
show! Thankfully I BOOKED him.
He didn’t book me!” Mike’s been in
comedy for 25 years and only 12 as
a cop! Mark Eddie is a true Comedy Rocker with his song parodies
of Al Green, Bruce Springsteen, Van
Morrison and his retrospective of
rock and roll history. After watching
Mark, now I sing Neil Diamond as
a 3rd grade teacher. ‘I am. I said.’ is
now a version by Dr. Seuss...’I Am
SAM...and I want you to eat those
green eggs and ham!’ Stephanie
Blum is one of my favorite comedy
Mamas. She has three children and
so do I. We can so relate to that kind
of motherhood and our sarcastic and
often irreverent comic relief!”
The doors of the Atascadero
Lake Pavilion open at 7 p.m., the
show starts at 8 p.m., $30 for online
advance tickets, and $35 at the door.

spooked the crew because they left a

Crisp Coast: Normally it’s rare
for wildfires to strike the Big Sur
coastline, because fog and moisture generally keep things just a big
greener. Most fires stay in remote
eastern areas. But in late December
though, a coastal wildfire torched 36
homes, including one owned by Martha Karsten, Big Sur Volunteer Fire
Brigade’s own Chief.
The Pfeiffer Fire burned for five
days, blackening more than 900 acres
of mostly private land. The cause is yet
undetermined, but the blaze is known
to have started somewhere in the Los
Padres National Forest.
Sunny but Homeless: Dry
warm winter weather has spared the
county’s growing homeless population. No gloating though; a new
Housing and Urban Development
report says 90% of our local homeless
sleep unsheltered. The annual Home-
less Assessment Report heralds San
Luis Obispo County with the dubious rank of third in the nation among
smaller cities whose homeless sleep
outdoors.
Only two places have a higher percent of unsheltered homeless and both
are in semi-tropical Florida. Grouped
with larger cities, San Luis Obispo
County has the highest percentage of
unsheltered homeless in the nation,
according to the HUD report.
It’s a problem that all the free coffee in the world won’t help.

Visit San Luis Obispo County
moves to Paso Robles!
By Millie Drum
As one of the leading economic
drivers, tourism is the #1 industry
in San Luis Obispo that employs
almost 16,000 people throughout
the region. Visit San Luis Obispo
County will continue to increase
brand awareness through a large
variety of marketing programs
that feature the biggest attractions
on the Central Coast.
The agency’s effort will focus
on the recent honor from Wine
Enthusiast Magazine naming the
Paso Robles Wine Country as
“Wine Region of the Year,” along
with the proximity of Hearst
Castle, the scenic coastline, the
Cal Poly Performing Arts Center
among other popular attractions.
Perhaps most notable is the
hugely successful partnership
with Sunset Magazine for Sunset

has earned national recognition as
The Central

and
tourism agency, Visit San Luis
Obispo County, has relocated
their office to Paso Robles, according to Executive Director Stacie Jacob, “We simply
found that more and more of
our employees are based in the
North County. We are a marketing agency for all SLO County
tourism, and with new virtual
technology we are able to perform our marketing functions
from pretty much anywhere.
Additionally, our new location
allows us to be situated in the
heart of our award winning

feature of our destination’s tourism industry.”
the premier food, wine and lifestyle event that is coming up on
September 25-28, 2014.
In its seventh year, the January Restaurant Month is another
popular program that attracts
tourists to the Central Coast for
special off-season promotions for
lodging and entertainment.
The organization has established
strategic professional partnerships;
working closely with Visit California, the state’s tourism marketing
organization as well as the national
tourism development office, Brand
USA that provides resources and
promotional opportunities for SLO

is to keep San Luis Obispo County
on the map for tourists,” said Jacob. “Whether visitors seek coastal,

Business Spotlight
Dr. Scott H. Davis - Setting
Roots in Paso Robles
After practicing medicine for almost 10 years in Redondo Beach,
California, Dr. Scott Davis has returned home to establish his family practice. Family ties run deep
for the young doctor who was the
last baby born at the Paso Robles
Hospital and graduated from Paso
Robles High School.
Davis is the
son of Dr. John
Davis, a prominent dentist in
Paso Robles for
over 35 years and
younger brother
of Dr. John JusDr. Scott H. Davis tin Davis. “For
By Millie Drum
my younger brother, his return
to Paso offers a true sense of belonging and the ability to have an
impact on the community,” said
Justin. “Scott is a perfect match for
this family practice in association
with Dr. Joseph Bettencourt.”
Early on, Scott considered veterinary medicine, but changed to family practice. He adds, “I was always
a ‘National Geographic’ kid with all
kinds of critters growing up from
cats, dogs, horses, mules, an emu
– and even a ferret! I was fascinated
with animals, but they don’t talk
much. By the time I was in junior
high, I found people to be interesting too. I grew up with Dr. Scott
Greaves and Dr. Obie Atkinson as
my doctors. They knew everything
there was to know about every possible malady out there. When I
decided to become a doctor, that’s
what appealed to me; the ability to
help anyone with any problem.
“I frequently tell my patients that
if I had one sentiment to put on my
doctor tombstone, it would be to

advertising, marketing, public relations and group sales. Its member base is comprised of over 500

walk two miles every single day. The
benefits are amazing and achievable by almost everyone. If you can’t
walk, then cycle or swim for 35 minutes! My most gratifying work as a
doctor comes as I see my patients
improve emotionally and physically
and when I walk them through the
good and the difficult times. I give
my patients the same kind of care
I’d give to my mom or grandma so
they feel comfortable with me.” While the brothers had different
interests, attended different schools
and took distinct paths to med
school, in fact, both attending from
2002 to 2003, their reunion couldn’t
have come at a better time.

Griffin Chiropractic –
Dedicated to Your Wellness
Since 1999, Dr. Tige Griffin has
successfully helped his patients rediscover their health and recover
from injuries through chiropractic. The dedication to his profession began as a young boy watching his father suffer through the
pain of a construction accident.
Dr. Griffin states, “Chiropractic was the only treatment that
resolved my father’s pain after
physical therapy, medications and
the option of surgery. As a 12 year
old at the time and seeing my dad
in such pain made a great impression on me. That’s when I decided
to become a chiropractor.” To enhance the traditional
treatments and natural approaches
to health, Dr. Griffin adds, “I’m
the only chiropractor in the county
that works on giving patients optimal posture and spinal alignment
with the Chiropractic Biophysics®
Technique. I work patients from
one day old to age 96. Our practice
LAW OFFICES OF
has evolved by encouraging our
patients to take matters in their
own hands through exercise, nutrition, massage, prayer – the whole
holistic approach to the body.”
Dr. Griffin restored a patient’s
left ear hearing with confirmation
from the audiologist. That patient
was able to hear for the first time
at age 55. Dr. Griffin uses chiropractic to help women conceive
naturally, relieve colicky babies
and ease asthma symptoms. “We
see a lot of repetitive injuries especially for people on computers. What really excites me are
the testimonials from people that
have their health restored and the
ripple effect of good health on
their family and friends.”
