Full Circle

By Kathryn Stiles Stribling

Much like popular children's book protagonist Eloise, Kathryn Stiles Stribling spent her childhood in hotels run by her father. She flew kites off the roof of The Georgian Hotel in Athens. She learned how to dance at a pavilion outside of The Balsam Hotel in the North Carolina mountains. In high school, Kathryn and her entire class staged a walk-out to protest the "mandatory retirement" of a beloved principal. Marrying into the Stribling family, industrial leaders in rural Habersham County, Georgia, Kathryn's life took an unexpectedly "Green Acres" type turn. She set her sights on improving the lives of her neighbhors: broadening special education programs, building projects. Finally, in her most recent stage of life she has moved to the Iris Place assisted living facility, which to a hotel child feels a lot like coming home.
