22 min - Director's Cut Podcast No. 24: Dear Ella
In this podcast we feature stories that didn’t make the final cut for the live radio show, but they are excellent stories and need to be shared. In this edition, we have a sweet story about Ella the cat from her dad Tim Herron. This story was submitted for our “Paws and Reflect: Stories about our Four-Legged Friends.” Sadly, soon after the show aired, Ella passed away. Here is Tim’s remembrance of dear Ella.

About StoryTown Radio
From the publisher's feed
Real stories, real people. This storytelling program is filled with true-life adventures of people past and present from Jonesborough, Tennessee, and the surrounding Southern Appalachian Region. Each program presents stories built around a common theme. All of these stories, which are collected from the hills and hollers, and sometimes up in the Mountains of East Tennessee, are scripted into a show that explores the culture, heritage, and history of these diverse voices. Home to the town of the first Abolitionist Newspaper in the Country. Home to the state that made Women’s Suffrage a reality. Home to Warner Institute, training Freedmen and Women as teachers beginning less than a decade after the end of the Civil War. Surprising, heartwarming, and often hilarious stories of the independent East Tennessee people come to life in this podcast with a voice and accent that can be found nowhere else.
