Editor’s Page Blair Farris Publisher and Editor in Chief As I sit down to write this letter, we are experiencing unusual times in our country with the outbreak of COVID-19. Anxiety levels are high for everyone. At Peachy we all work remotely, so our office is not as affected by this crisis, but my heart goes out to all of the small businesses that are shutting down and rely on the “human touch” to keep going. My hope is that we will come together as a country and this will be a time of great care and compassion for the elderly, our neighbors, and our fami- lies. I hope that we will be able to raise each other up even it is just a smile, a wave, or a phone call. I hope that we will be able to spend quality time with our families and look back on this as a time to slow down and rejuvenate. We were so excited about our upcom- ing Neiman Marcus runway event in April, but it is being postponed until we can make sense of the effects of the virus. We will be back—even better than before—and plan many more events and social gatherings once this time passes. 2 PEACHYTHEMAGAZINE.COM
