As we move ever closer to Dec. 25, communities throughout DeKalb County are showing the Christmas spirit through special events, parades and other Christmas celebrations. Southern Torch would like to extend holiday greetings and best wishes to each and every community and the people that make those communities special in DeKalb County. It has been a true blessing to spend time in every community in the county as we continue to work each day to cover the news —no matter how big or small —and tell the stories that are important to you. We appreciate your support and wish you a Merry Christmas.
