Charlie Porter, Where Is He Now? - Part 2
- By James Moore
Adventures of salt and pepper
Previously, Porter’s love for police work and the pain from the hazards of the career were introduced. The final dangerous moment of Porter’s police career was explained to show how good decisions can lead to bad consequences. For Porter, knowing it is all God’s plan, helps keep back the burden of guilt that can weigh a man down. In this segment we’ll delve into his career battling against drug dealers in Easley as we lead up to where his “wonderful” police career and his love for veterans has taken him today.
Charlie Smith Porter and Charlie Perry Austin were partnered in Easley and they quickly started making a name for themselves through scores of drug cases through hard work. They developed a reputation and a nickname, Salt and Pepper. They would work their regular shifts and then they would put in extra hours staking out known drug spots.

Charlie Porter, Where Is He Now? - Part 1
- By James Moore
As Charlie Porter reflects back on his life, he believes that he had the most wonderful police career any human being could ever have. Police work, to him, was like a preacher’s calling. It was what he did, and he was so good at it.
“I just had a sense for [police work]. I just had a feeling,” said Porter.
Those “feelings” didn’t keep Porter from danger, they led him right to it. It’s hard to remember exactly, but Porter knows his broken bone count is in-between 12 and 17. Taking into count all of the little bones in his feet and hands, along with the big ones, 17 bones is a good guess on how many Porter has crushed. During the course of his duties Porter has also ruined his spine and damaged his brain stem.

99th Birthday for Dot Breazeale
- By Rosemary Reed
On Monday, March 17th, the usually ordinary activity of doll making was briefly set aside. The ladies chose St. Patrick’s Day to celebrate the 99th birthday of one of their most diligent workers, Dot Breazeale. She has been a member of Taylors First Baptist Church since 1959, and is active in the Global Missions Group. In early 2010, a meeting devoted to local mission activities featured a lady from Berea First Baptist Church with a sample cloth doll they sent to children in foreign countries to tell about Jesus. Tricia Phillips and several ladies, including Dot, went to Berea First Baptist, where they learned to make the dolls.
