Annmarie’s brother James moved from New York to Charlotte, NC about a decade ago. Since then he has built his company from a dump truck and some labor to one of the top custom masonry contracting companies south of the Mason-Dixon Line.
This month’s Southern Accents magazine features the Homestead Preserve in Hot Springs, Virginia. Icon Custom Masonry is responsible for all the stone veneer, all the chimneys, all the flat work (pavers, patios, etc.) and all the fireplaces found at the showhouse featured.

James is a perfect example of what one can do with dedication, persistence and lots and lots of hard work. I truly respect what he has done with his business and look forward to seeing where he goes from here.
Hattie Bryant of Small Business School has launched a new blog.
“Hattie Bryant and her husband Bruce Camber are the most successful independent producers in the history of PBS. They have created more programs and have been on more PBS stations than any other independent producers. Each episode of their show, Small Business School, is a case study of a successful small business owner. In addition to airing on PBS, these programs are repurposed and find themselves serving as case study material for over 40 college textbooks published by Thomson South-Western and Prentice-Hall. Therefore hundreds of thousands of students are exposed to the valuable lessons found in every 30-minute program.”
