Bruce Yawn, who retired as a restaurateur in February 2012 after 41 years operating Snooky's, now has a new job as executive director of Willow Pond Senior Care, the personal care home on Country Club Road. That's not to say that Yawn ever sat at home with his feet propped up. He remains chairman of both the Bulloch County Development Authority and the board of Sea Island Bank.
