No matter how many individuals appear in the pages of each edition of Keys Weekly, there are always so many more of our community members who deserve to be recognized. In an effort to shine a spotlight on more of the incredible individuals who live and work in these islands, Keys Weekly is proud to spotlight our Neighbor of the Week feature, dedicated to celebrating a community member with each issue.
This week’s neighbor is one of the friendly servers at Bayside Gourmet in Islamorada and bookseller at Sandbar Books in Tavernier. Before he arrived in the Florida Keys, he was a youth counselor at Stonewall Jackson Youth Development center.
