CHIPLEY, Fla. — When Cindy Birge answers the phone, it’s often someone she’s known for decades. Recently, she received a call from a woman whose aunt Birge had helped buy a home nearly 24 years ago. The woman still receives Birge’s yearly handwritten Christmas card. The tradition takes Birge weeks to complete but keeps her closely connected to the community she has served her entire life. “That’s the kind of personal touch people remember,” Birge says. “And it’s why they call back.”
