If you ask Christie McLendon to tell you a little about herself, she'll say she’s from Daisy, graduated from Claxton High, and has worked at Candler County Hospital for 25 years. She’ll also laugh and tell you she’s been married to her husband, Mike, since 1989, and “so far we haven’t killed each other.” She’ll tell you about their children, who she’s so proud of: Matthew, 27, who served in the Army for seven years, and Kate, who is 23 and works at PDI in Statesboro.
