I spent alot of time in Low Country (Beaufort) and on Hunting Island when I was a kid. I read my first Conroy when I was in high school, and I loved it!
Now... I'm 55, teach senior English at Danville Community High School and encourage my students to read Conroy every semester.
My wife and I plan on retiring to the Beaufort area eventually, where I plan to do some writing myself.
He was/is an inspiration to so many!! RIP

Indeed Pat Conroy was and still is an inspiration for many and that inspiration stayed with you for decades... We thank you for this "gift" of loyalty to our "Prince of Words."
