Former Toccoan Tim Rhodes, a producer with In Touch Ministries, pitched the story about Combs to decision-makers at In Touch.
“Shirley was actually my bus driver when I was a child and attended Eastanollee Elementary,” Rhodes said.
Since then, we’ve been close and I’ve always had a desire to share her story,” he said.
Combs is the proprietor of Shirley’s Sole Food on Currahee Street.
